Candlekeep presents - 25 Years of the Forgotten Realms
The announcement below has been sourced from Erik Scott de Bie's personal website, linked to and announced by Erik on the Candlekeep Forums. This is to bring awareness of a "Candlekeep presents..." seminar to be held at GenCon on August 16th 2012, as part of the 25 years of publication of the Forgotten Realms campaign setting. The seminar is to be hosted by Erik Scott de Bie, Matt James and Brian R James. Many thanks to the hosts and to Erik for setting this up and including the Candlekeep scribes in this celebration.
"Candlekeep Presents: 25 Years of the Forgotten Realms
The panoramic Forgotten Realms world is one of the greatest, most popular fantasy settings of all time. Join the authors, designers, and scribes to glean a few secrets and hear some infamous stories!
The James Brothers and I are hosting this seminar, which will feature a number of writers, designers, and wizardly people from the history and present of the Forgotten Realms, to talk about creating the world, designing it from then until now, and also the bright (or shadowy) future of our beloved setting. We will also do what Candlekeep does best: discuss Realmslore and debate! The presenter list will be updated as the event nears, so keep your eyes peeled!
The particulars of the event are as follows:
Game ID: SEM1232627
Game Type: Seminar
Date/Time: Thursday, August 16, 8 p.m. – 10 p.m. (We might go longer!)
