Hello all!
I'm glad you are finding the article useful. I got a lot of help from Brian Cortijo, Brian James, and Ed when putting this article together. All the good stuff in there is due to them.
When I wrote the article, I was using the FR sourcebooks and the Volo's Guides as my inspiration. In brief, you'll find the following in the article: an overview of the city (including its government, military, and justice), an entire section dedicated to the prominent noble families in the city, a discussion of trade, the major temples, and the culture of the city (including festivals, fashion, and nightlife). The article concludes with a description of the significant locations in the city as well as some adventure ideas.

Posted - 14 Jan 2012 : 13:55:37 I often tout what other Realms designers and I create. But we're no salesman. We don't get commissions if you go and get a sub. All one needs to do is compare the Realms articles against their contemporaries and you'll see the oozing Realmslore yumminess! If someone goes and catalogs all of the digital Realms products from DDI, you'll find it is well worth the investment :) |

IMO YES!
To reinforce Brimstone's excited support, I'll merely add that the section on the nobility is worth the price of the article alone.

Without overstepping the bounds of the code of conduct as to what you reveal - are this and the other articles worth the money Brimstone?

This is an amazing article. Lots of nifty lore for both the city and its inhabitants. It's the kind of write-up that reminds me of the old city articles in the printed DRAGON.  |
