Hello all,
Excited to be here. Main reason for joining is to explore the immense depth of the forgotten realms world, plunder your wonderful minds and have a good time doing so. I've just posted a little inquiry in the general chat board, so if you know a thing or two and you're willing to help out a noob like me, I'd be grateful.
I'm always up for a craic and a bit of banter as well, so I hope my stay will be a pleasent one - sure it will.
cheers,
Aufidius

"You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate
As reek o' the rotten fens, whose loves I prize
As the dead carcasses of unburied men
That do corrupt my air, I banish you;
And here remain with your uncertainty!
Let every feeble rumour shake your hearts!
Your enemies, with nodding of their plumes,
Fan you into despair! Have the power still
To banish your defenders; till at length
Your ignorance, which finds not till it feels,
Making not reservation of yourselves,
Still your own foes, deliver you as most
Abated captives to some nation
That won you without blows! Despising,
For you, the city, thus I turn my back:
There is a world elsewhere. "
Coriolanus. III.iii |

But...but... that was MY idea.
Also, welcome Aufidius. |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

Well, on bad days I can be. If you ask not-so-nicely.  Whips, chains, and all the usual . . .
Hugs and welcome to our merry zoo,

Welcome to Candlekeep! 
Feel free to ask any questions you may have... A lot of us have been Realms fans for years, and we know a thing or three about the setting. Plus, we've got some of the authors and creators here! 
As for the rest of us, we are friendly, mostly harmless, and occasionally strange... Enjoy your stay! |

Bonjour à toi Audifius. Tout comme toi, je suis un Européen. Cela fait plaisir de voir un voisin :)
Peut-être un conseil : je pense qu'il y a moyen que tu raccourcisses ta signature ^^

Hello to you Audifius . Like you , I am a European. It's nice to see a neighbor :)
Maybe a tip: I think there are ways that you shorten your signature ^ ^ |
