[QUOTE="machineelf, post: 7012115, member: 6774924"] The Forgotten Realms has grown on me. Sure it's not perfect. It might be overly massive. But the more I read and study Faerun, and the more my players explore and get familiar with it, the more we all like it. The one thing I hate about it, though, is all the world-changing history that has been piled on. I like a pristine Faerun, before people and the gods mucked it up, and I have collected a lot of older material over the last two years. I've collected a nearly perfect copy of Waterdeep and the North. I took the map that came with it and had it laminated, so now I have this beautiful map that will last forever. I have a copy of Volo's Guide to Waterdeep. I have the 3rd edition of the Silver Marches. And I have all the 5e material, including The Sword Coast Adventurers Guide. I have the Legacy of the Crystal Shard (great info on Icewind Dale) and Murder in Baldur's Gate (great info on Baldur's Gate). And I will keep collecting. But because I have material from across several editions, the timelines and major NPCs I use are often all mixed together. I like Piergeiron. Neverember can go pound sand. But some of the other NPCs from the later years have left a great impression on me. So I've created my own Forgotten Realms circa 1372 DR, with some other later NPCs thrown in, to make it a little unique. I was just curious, what does your Forgotten Realms look like? What timeline is it set in? What major events do you use or not use? [/QUOTE]
