[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9366566, member: 54629"] OK, so according to the FR wiki, [I]"On the Feast of the Moon, 1374 DR, Khelben Arunsun brought together many powerful mages in order to cleanse part of the High Moor and restore Faer'tel'miir, a lost city of Miyeritar. In order to make the magic permanent, Khelben ultimately gave his own life, together with the Grand Mage Ualair the Silent. The restored city came to be known as Rhymanthiin, the Hidden City of Hope ... After his second death, Khelben's spirit coalesced in Blackstaff Tower to guide and advise future Blackstaffs. Rumors were that he might return as he did after his first 'death' as he was one of Mystra's Chosen."[/I] Also, Vajra was first introduced as the new Blackstaff in the 2008 novel, [I]Blackstaff Tower[/I]. She also featured in Ed Greenwood's 2016 novel, [I]Death Masks[/I]. So I guess you could say that [I]Dragon Heist [/I]made Vajra canon, since the novels don't count anymore. [LIST] [*]Volo survived the time jump because he was trapped as a stone frog in Elminster's garden or something. [*]Wulfgar, Catti-Brie, and the other Companions (sans Drizzt) all died, but then RA Salvatore had Drizzt's patron deity, Mielikki, bring them all back to life so he could keep writing novels about them. [*]Minsc and Boo came back in a comic book when a sorcerer's wild magic transformed a statue of them in Baldur's Gate. [*]Durnan and Mirt apparently got their unnaturally long lifespans after being the first to delve into Undermountain and return. Durnan appears to be unable/unwilling to leave the Yawning Portal, so it's possible his life force is tied up with the knot in the Weave that has also made Halaster immortal. [/LIST] My point is just that they didn't all necessarily [I]survive [/I]the time jump. Some of them died but were then brought back to life. But yes, at least Khelben got to stay dead. I think some of the Seven Sisters are still dead as well. [/QUOTE]
