[QUOTE="BadMojo, post: 3769604, member: 569"] An attack of this magnitude would seem like the stuff high level adventures are made of. It wouldn't be something where I'd think Mystra would ring up the nearest 1st level adventuring party. If a group of high level or near-Epic level PCs is working to stop the destruction of the Weave, why couldn't they work in concert with Elminster? It can easily be a scenario where there are multiple battles all over Faerun would need to be fought. Even a Big Name FR NPC (except maybe Manshoon) can be several places at once. Elminster is certainly not infallible. He could be tricked or delayed by a very powerful enemy. As a player, I really don't feel the need to be the most powerful entity in the entire setting. Another way to look at things is this: FR NPC's tend to be a tempermental, flaky lot. Much like a large corporation, the various groups like the Chosen, Khelben's group (forgot the name) or the Harpers may be too busy arguiing internally and among the various power groups to act quickly enough. It may sound silly, but this sort of behavior would fit with our "real world" history. Besides, Elminster would probably be halfway across the multiverse handcuffed to a bedpost. :D [/QUOTE]
