What is your favorite FR website?

[Sauce74]

I am starting a new campaign.

After many many years our group is leaving Greyhawk behind and we are going to give Forgotten Realms a try.


What is the best FR website out there? for maps, history, etc.

I'm not big into the realms but the following sites are listed at EN World's D&D Links page:

http://www.thistledownhall.com/
http://www.masterao.com/
WotC Forgotten Realms Site

That should provide a place to start.

Mine, of course. But I don't have any maps. Just history and etc.

I would also highly recommend John Scott's Virtual Fantasy: Forgotten Realms Index. It is an extremely ambitious project designed to link to and reference all available Realmslore (both published and web-based, "canon" and fan-made).

Also, the Archives for the Realms-L mailing list (use the "SEARCH" function), and WotC's Classics Downloads Page (scroll down for numerous, free-to-download, 2E Realms products).

Oh, and mine, of course!

I have always been impressed with <a href="http://www.gemofthenorth.org/">Project Silverymoon</a>, which offers a wealth of info on Silverymoon and its environs. Top-notch stuff, too.

It used to be a draw between www.RealmSpeak.com and AJA's site. Now RealmSpeak is down so I second AJA's recommendation of his own site. He's one of relatively few people, TSR/WotC authors included, who really get the Realms feel right.
