renau1g's Fort Belurian Adventure [Pathfinder] - OOC

[renau1g]

Excellent, with Enworld's problems fixed (for now ), I'll get back to reviewing the character sheets and now will hope to get things started this week (although I can't promise it as I have a bunch of May 31 tax returns that I need to do between now and then)

 

[Rhun]

I hear you. I'm hoping I can get back to my regular schedule around this place now.

To be perfectly honest, I'm hoping to take a cue from Rhun and use the Mandatory ENWorld Posting Holiday as a good excuse to lessen my own posting a bit. Hoping....hoping.... (But, of late, even Rhun has been posting like a rabid computer geek!)

I just had a couple of days with very little to do was all. The EN World outage kind of ended that, though. LOL.

Whatever you say, man. I guess we'll just see soon enough!

Hey Mr. DM, I'm trying to wrap up my character's background and I need to know where in the FR timeline we'll be. I'm not really up on the spellplauge and the 4e changes. Is Mystra still goddess of magic for us? She's the obvious choice for Rych unless of course she's dead.

Spellplauge? Apparently I haven't been keeping up either. I know Mystra was slain during the Godswar, but then her portfolio was given to Midnight, who then adopted the Mystra name again. But that was probably what? Ten game years prior to the 4E timeline? It seems they jump about ten years with each edition.

Rhun, they've jumped forward 100 years in the new re-boot. They've gotten rid of large chunks of the land, adding in the lands for the retconned races (dragonborn, genasi, tieflings).

Scotley, this will be taking place around the 3.5e timeline, so Mystra is still the goddess of magic, the Weave still exists, no dragonborn, no genasi civilization (there are still plane/elemental-touched, just rare). Nothing from the 4e FRPG will be included here.

This is a prime example as to why I have switched over to using my own campaign setting. Nothing is sacred anymore, and each time someone at Wizards gets a new idea, they change everything.

Excellent, I'm no Realms scholar, but most of what I do know is old school. I'd much prefer to keep things in the older timeline. I've only flipped through the 4e book. I get the impression they shook things up in the Realms to put it more in line with the 4e 'points of light' concept.
