What setting is the PHB set in?

Can we refer to it as a Hawk of evenly blended colors?

I am wondering whether you noticed the 'a' vs 'e' in my previous post

Also note that while the PHB is nominally "set" in Greyhawk, the SRD isn't.

Sword. Efficient Quiver.

Bah.

Don't like that, either. They could have let the names as they were (or at least some that sound fairly similar and start with the same letter. So you don't know: Do I have to look under S for Sword or M for Mordenkainen's Sword.

(Although I admit, there's a passage in a Salvatore novel where two wizards are casting Bigby's Hand spells and Tenser's Transformation... and it just seems wrong, somehow.)

They're actually conversing about the legendary ones - Aganazzar, Tenser, Mordenkainen - as they blast away zombies with those spells. And they can keep the Harpell from using TT (A Harpell under the influence of that spell - that makes one shudder)

You know, I never saw that E in GreyHawk before. You live and learn...

Yeah, but why are Tenser and Mordenkainen legendary in Faerun? They're from a different cosmology...

I meant legendary in the D&D sense, not in the FR sense. Also, they were from the same cosmology once (AFAIK the Realms used the Great Wheel before 3e) such powerful wizards should have no greater problems employing magic, portals, or a spelljammer to visit other worlds.
