I love Waterdeep, such sentimental value. You get a lot of attachment to a place when you use it to kill Drizzt and all his little friends one by one. ;)
Why do so many makes such a big deal of killing this or that iconic character in their FR games? They exist in the world and aren't the PCs. So why the DRIZZT IS TEH SUCK fetish? Honestly, I doubt that any of the non-Zhentarim iconic NPCs will ever make even a single cameo appearance in Pledge of Tyranny. Hell, I played in a game that went from 1st- to 30th-level and we didn't meet a single Chosen of Mystra, nor any R.A. Salvatore-created characters. We did meet Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun (sp?), but that's another story entirely.

I'm running a Dalelands campaign now (Mistledale based), with significant diversions in Cormyr and the Underdark. The party has practically moved its base of operations to Tilverton.

Though If I were to run a second FR campaign, I'd go with Waterdeep & the Silver Marches.

Sounds like a fun campaign. My players would be disappointed if they never met any of the iconics, which is why I never play in FR. :]
 



I voted "other". Impiltur is the place to be. Lots of demon cults and lurking fiends juxtaposed against a kingdom that venerates the Triad and is ruled by the Lords of Imphras II, a council of paladins.

Sonn Rúndar

Sonn Rúndar, a dwarven citadel I developed in high school (10th grade or so). Here it is 14 years later and I still find myself working on it even though I don’t use it in any particular fashion. I guess their culture, customs and courtesies have changed throughout the years as did mine. But I’ll tell you that it’s only getting better.

Actual FR locations, I guess either the Silver Marches or the isles of Moonshae.
