@zeugenberg Sure, though not soon (I likely won't be recording more until end of March), and doing all of the deities is going to take more than one video! But yes! Overdue!!!

@AJPickett1 I don't think anyone has, that I know of. I'd add to these the Amarune's Almanacs series, by Vorpal Dice Press. "Regions" in this case being biomes (forest, desert, etc.) all over the Realms. Really help with overland travel adventuring. (Full disclosure: Ed Realmslore inside.)

@MichellePaiser Hmmm. I agree wholeheartedly with #3, but I'd go for #1 and #2 only for certain dragon types (can't see faerie dragons or deep dragons being able to do so, and for shadow dragons it would depend on the nature of the hoard). But yes, I agree with your thinking!

@CourierCall See the beautiful foldout Val Valusek color drawing included in the CITY SYSTEM boxed set (Fr Wiki, City System entry, "Full aerial-view poster map." near the bottom of the entry). Sea Ward rise from a beach outside the city walls as one heads east/landward. #realmslore

Tolerance varies from place to place and with individuals, but "everybody knows" there are "good" monsters. Of course, the first time Person X sees Monster Y, they're not necessarily sure they're looking at a "good" =safe to be near monster. #realmslore
@TheEdVerse In the Realms, how do people react to friendly monsters like, for instance, the famous kobold bard Deekin who lived in Neverwinter? Is he an outlier or is Faerûnian society (in general) welcoming or open to the concept of "good" monsters joining civilization?

@galaxyfighter27 I'm so glad you love it! I wrote that in 16 days (8 two-day weekends) and wrote longer than TSR wanted it to be, so stuff had to be chopped out...but although I think the Elmara section is WAY too short, I still like the book!

@Crawleey You'd have to ask whoever at TSR named them. They were added to D&D when I was still just a freelance writer from Canada bombarding The Dragon editors with articles...

@wixcook I'd be a force for love and doing good. I can offer warlocks who I'm patron for happiness and all the lore and spell knowledge of the Realms that can be had. ;}

Yes, griffin milk is a thing, and it tastes like cream cheese or mild Gouda (stronger flavor as the mother gets older). #realmslore
@TheEdVerse What does griffin milk taste like? Is griffin milk a thing? It's vital for my campaign

@Chuo_Dori I think I'd like to walk the banks of the Unicorn Run in the High Forest, if given only that much time. The beauty would be very soul-restoring. :}

@Zanaji I agree with your guesswork. ;} Barring disease or violent early death, likely around 200 summers. #realmslore
