[QUOTE="Ripzerai, post: 3429939, member: 38324"] Iggwilv as a Red Wizard? I like it. But if I were doing this, the world would be much less Faerun and much more the Flanaess, since Oerik's ethnic groups and history are a major part of what I like about the setting, and the ethnic groups and history of the Realms are a major part of what I dislike about the setting. The things I like about the Realms are: - Zakhara/Al-Qadim - Imaskar - Narfell - The Hordelands - Unther/Thay/Mulhorand/Murghom/Ulgarth (that whole area, although note that my Ulgarth is heavily based on Nehwon/Lankhmar) And I pretty much hate the rest of it, so my hybrid would involve grafting that whole mess onto the Flanaess. Which I have partly done, as in the image below: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v149/ripvanwormer/hordelands.jpg[/IMG] Abbreviated timeline: -9900 CY Dwarves settle the Firepeak Mountains -6900 CY Tribes of Taagan humans settle the Endless Waste -6360 CY Proto-Baklunish tribes settle the Raurin Plains -5100 Baklunar Empire subjugates Taagan tribes -2659 The War of Light and Darkness. Baklunar empire shattered. Baklunish flee east beyond the Sunrise Mountains to found new nation. -900 The Oeridian kingdom is founded with its capital at Telchurkeep. -780 Oeridians found Almorel -644 Oeridia and Narfell destroy one another in decade-long war. Johydee prophesizes migration to the east. -600 Orcs from the Sunrise Mountains drive Oeridian survivors from much of the Hordelands. 277 CY Rise of Yamun Khahan. 301 CY Tuigan army conquers Ket and Ull, invades Suhfang, Perrenland, Bissel, Zeif, Ekbir, and Tusmit. 302 CY Tuigan forces invade Gran March. Allied armies from the Sheldomar basin defeat the Tuigan. Yamun Khahan slain. 303 CY Tuigan bandits terrorize merchants on the Golden Way. 305 Hubadai, son of Yamun Khahan, declares himself Khahan and founds nation of Yaimmunahar, west of the Swordrise Mountains and north of Suhfang (the "High and Low Khanates"). 307 CY Kourmira (I can't think of a better name - maybe Khindyla, after Chendyl?), capital of Yaimmunahar, founded. 309 CY Increased trade along the Golden Way prompts eastern nations to establish trading posts in Almorel and Kourmira. 314 CY The Mouqallad open a merchant enclave in Kourmira.
