[QUOTE="Salthorae, post: 7820142, member: 1095"] If you're going to the Shoon Imperium, I suggest the ring being one of the Qysari Rings that were made for the Shoon Emperors: [URL="https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Qysari_Rings"]Qysari Rings[/URL] Probably not the one actually made for Shoon III (ring of fire resistance + acts as a wand of fire) or maybe that one. The [I][URL='https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Annulus_Qysarus_Major']Annulus Qysarus Major[/URL][/I] and [I][URL='https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Annulus_Qysarus_Minor']Annulus Qysarus Minor[/URL][/I] matched pair seem like something Manshoon would be after. They were the rings of Shoon IV. I think [I][URL='https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Azuredge']Azuredge[/URL][/I] is in Dragon Heist for stats, but it was crafted by Ahghairon. Maybe Manshoon wants to get the version of it created before the Blackstaff enchanted it so the Blackstaff can scry on it and teleport the weapon away from its location, then use the axe to prop up a "Hero of Waterdeep" who he controls? Waterdeep was officially founded as it is today in 1032 DR. Ahghairon was born in 920 and the first Trollwar was in 940. He took part in the 2nd Trollwar, but it never says anything about him with the first that I've seen. So that item really could be anything you want, but it should be something Legendary or else Manshoon wouldn't go for it specifically. It should also be something that can help him gain power or control of Waterdeep (or a portion of it) in some way I'd think. [/QUOTE]
