[QUOTE="Mirtek, post: 7137701, member: 40810"] How about basically every novel about him (only exception his origin trilogy). He's meddling all over the realms in each of them, and not only in epic world ending threats, but boring every day stuff. There's one instance where he justifies not doing more to aid Shandryl but reading Storm his to-do-list for the day and boy was most of it boring low to mid-level stuff. Much of it als directly aimed at such adventurer groups. Yes, El was truly teleporting all over the realms just to appear in low level adventurers quest :( Most Elminster novels read at times as if Ed is deliberately trolling people complaining about Elminster doing to much. Ob boy he does. And does it a lot. It's almost all he does. He admitted to another character in one of the last books how this new "bill of rights" the late king of Cormyr was writing was actually his doing and he was literally hidding under the kings bed, to sneak out at night and carefully re-write certain passages of the various drafts until the final declaration was done. And he was doing that for some weeks! WTF Elminster, WTF?!? El doing spellbattles with the likes of Larloch, [COLOR=#545454][FONT=arial]Tanthul or just a dracolich if far rarer in his novels than either seeing him meddling everywhere or talking about how he meddled everywhere.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
