[QUOTE="jasper, post: 7139207, member: 277"] The novels were accepted canon by everyone involved until the movie studios decided to say otherwise…… Hahahahahahahah. Yea right. Sorry even when I read Splinter of the Mind’s Eye when it first hit shelves I knew it wasn’t canon. The studios marketing people may have fed you that line but they never bought themselves. Shoot even Star Trek could not remember Checkov never met Khan. Wait a minute I do remember a fan page where Pavel Farted in Khan’s space suit or was that Klingons farting in the starboard turbo lift, I forget which. Again Chaosmancer give me the line quote in the following 5E books which says “ed greenwood mumbles, blogs, articles, bad novels, etc are CANON. AND ALL DMS MUST FOLLOW CANON OR BE DESTROYED!” 5E Dungeon Master Guide 5E Players Handbook 5E Monster Manual 5E Storm King’s Thunder 5E Out of the Abyss 5E The Rise of Tiamat 5E Hoard of the Dragon Queen 5E Princes of the Apocalyse 5E Sword Coast Adventure Guide 5E Volo’s Guide to Monsters The post 845 mentions [url]http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Forgotten_Realms_Wiki:Canon[/url] IS A FANDOM CREATE PAGE. I read “Spellfire” when it first came out. It is the first time I agreed with my wife that a lot of spin off novels are JUNK FICTION. It read like someone wrote a bad novel about his Monty hall pc. The first time a fan boy would scream at me “this is canon” is when I collect $40 from player Chaomancer and disappear for 15 minutes. Then pour everyone a shot of Jim Beam. Then say, “Don’t worry Eliminister and Drizzit handled it why yall were talking a long rest. Any one up for Candyland?” [/QUOTE]
