Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sword of Spirit" data-source="post: 8122291" data-attributes="member: 6677017">I thought there was some sort of Spelljammer accessory that actually identifies and elven "homeworld". In my recollection, it is supposedly the location where Corellon had his mythic battle with Gruumsh.(By this point with all of the various editions, I tend to pick my own DM's version of what really happened, but allow most of the other stories to exist because the mortals (and PCs) don't necessarily know what really happened. Sometimes I don't choose until it becomes relevant. Hence my "supposedly" comments.)You might want to see if you can find that elven homeworld info.As a random aside, it really irritates me the way the War Captain's Companion changed the way groundlings and space-farers interact. In the original Spelljammer boxed set, the monarch of Evermeet in Faerun might have an advisor who is aware of spelljamming (perhaps as one duty amongst others), but even the monarch doesn't really know much about it. Basically, amongst non-spacefaring worlds (which all of the other published campaign settings are), archmages are about the only ones who are likely to know bout spelljamming.War Captain's Companion decided that the Imperial Elven Armada answers to the local monarchs, who are well aware of it, and that nations actually use spelljamming vessels as part of their ground forces, etc. I absolutely reject that change. I love spelljammer, but part of its appeal is that it's not something that's an integrated part of groundling society, and doesn't have to interact with their lore, because nobody knows about it in groundling culture, and it doesn't interact with them except where the DM specifically brings it in. It's kind of like there was a de facto "Prime Directive" in the original box, and then War Captain's Companion decided to just have every world be a space-faring world to some extent or another. I don't know who thought that was a good idea, but I think they owe me a pizza to atone for it.</blockquote>
