Afternoon, fellow scribes!

I've recently been running a bunch of players, all largely new to DnD and all complete Realms virgins, through a fairly lore-slathered game. The focal point of said lore slathering has been the legend of Karsus the Fool, the many deaths and resurrections of the Lady of Magic, and so forth. It's proved to be a pretty handy foundation upon which to gradually build up their realms-lore exposure, and they've all seemed to rather enjoy the steady feed of morsels, be they relevant to bad-guy bashing or otherwise.

As we're nearing the end of the current quest cycle, I was thinking of either starting a new game set in the time of Karsus or giving the players an opportunity to hop through a time-gate to the same effect. Possibly, I could also do the odd 'flashback' adventure where the players take on the roles of their spiritual ancestors around then (they know they have them, sort of, and they might be powerful devils... long story).

What you think? Any ideas? Suggestions? Any games ever been run round then?

Cheers!

You sure those are still available? I can't seem to find them as of late.

(and yes, I've seen my doofy typo, well done me!)

Looks like it, I'll delete one.

Quasit gumbo all round!

What kind of tails did you have in mind? Quasit, imp, dragon, wyvern?

I'm afraid I don't have anything for you but well wishes...

Aha! Correct you are, sir. I thought I 'just' had the goodies in LEoF and GHotR there for a mo. I knew your fine work couldn't escape the ravages of my game table for long!

The PDFs on Eaerlann, Siluvanede, Sharrven & Ammarindar may be useful to you in this regard......
