In Champions of Ruin, an "event" (or group or entity) called the Night Parade is mentioned but there is no further explanation given. Can anyone tell me what it is and where I can read more about it?
Also, in the Waterdeep book (the 3rd ed. one) there is a ncie picture showing two skeletons with scythes riding...and the title says something akin to "Myrkul's legion" or something like that...what is meant by that? Was there something connected to Myrkul not mentioned in the sourcebook? |

It was suggested in the Villain's Lorebook that they are probably spread all over Faerun. That's a pretty chilling thought.
Try reading the old Harpers' novel called the The Night Parade written by Scott Ciencin, it features good information about the Night Parade Creatures. Of course, even if they are spread all over Faerun, the hunters are never far away as the old saying goes. |

It's likely from the last day of the Avatar Crisis, when Myrkul's denizens were attacking Waterdeep. See the third novel of the Avatar trilogy, Waterdeep. I believe the module of the same name covers this, as well.
As I recall, they are Night Riders, and are in fact given a detailed write-up in the Waterdeep adventure module for the the Time of Troubles.

The Night Parade are detailed in Villian's Lorebook and the Night Parade novel in the Harper Series. :) Hero's Lorebook also details that NPC's from the Night Parade novel. |
