I can't say that I have ever met anyone who used all the canon of every novel and suppliment in the realms. Hell, I can't say that about ANY campaign setting. Change things the way you want to change them. Some of you seem to be under the notion of NOVELS BE DAMNED THIS IS HOW I LIKE THE REALMS! As if you are being pushed to some extreme when almost everyone does this automatically without the vile hatred. Don't like Drizzt? Don't use him. Eliminate him from your version of the realms. There is no realms police that are going to come and kidnap you from erasing a fictional character in a fictional world. The novels are simply a shared interpretation of the realms. It's quite ironic that some people complain about conflicting thing in the novel, which assumes that when the authors wrote those novels they were writing their characters in the realms THEY knew, and yet that's what you guys are doing as well when you change the realms. You are conflicting with the story and changing it the way you like because, screw it! It's what you want to do! And that's AWESOME! That's what the novelists do with this fictional world, and kudos to them! I never let canon get me down, and believe me when I run or play star wars campaigns there's a lot there, or any other published setting. Somethings I like, and somethings I don't, but to just HATE something, it seems like so much effort to put on what is essentially make belief.</p></blockquote><p></p>
