So, how many pages of info about divine abilities and stuff is reprinted from Deities & Demigods?

All of it basically, in a slightly condensed format (7 pages). A description of each Divine Feat and Salient Ability is given.

That's exactly what I thought too! I double checked before I posted it, I wanted to make sure I wasn't on the wrong entry. But, according to the chart, it's *somehow* the greataxe.

Is there info on Ao at all?

One paragraph, no stats, no Divine Rank. Basically it explains who/what he is and you get the hint that no god or mortal should even think about bothering him. Thoughout the entries for Bane, Mystra, Cyric, Kelemvor and Torm you get a synopsis of the whole Avatar Crisis and his role and power level.

[EDIT]: Misspelling.....

I've had this book for a couple of days too. That's got to be a first, but I came into a FLGS right when the books came in. I asked if he had a copy of SW revised (and whether he just couldn't shelf it because of street date), but he said he didn't even order any! Ashame too, he would have got another 40$ out of me... hehe

My take on F&P is that it's pretty decent. I wish they would have refrained from including the temples section and statted more of the gods, but that's a personal preference.

I tried posting the minor differences between Lolth in F&P and D&Dg on the temp board but it lagged, so for whomever asked yesterday:

Lolth in F&P has these Salient Divine Abilities:
Extra Domain (Chaos), Extra Domain (Darkness), Extra Domain (Evil)

in place of these SDA's in D&Dg:
Extra Domain (Destruction), Increased Spell Resistance

I don't know if she has Increased Spell Resistance figured in twice or something in D&Dg, otherwise it seems they cheated her a slot, or cheated and gave her an extra slot. Or I missed one... I'll let Upper Krust do the math. ;)

There is basically a section stating that where a god has an aspect in the Realms and in some other Cosmology, then the aspects are independent, so if you kill Lolth (or Tiamat, for example) on Oerth, their Realms aspects are left intact.
 

Hello, Paladin!

Thank you for the information so far! I hope you'll find some time to read the books in detail spending so much time in answering all the questions.

I have a very specific one: I have already asked it in the Rules Forum but there was no response. I have to make an Eilistraee cleric in the very next days and so I'm wondering about the Sword Dancer prestige class. What prerequisites does my cleric have to fulfill?

Would you be so kind and lookup this?
