I have a solo player who has wandered into the countryside of western Sembia. Are there any sources I can draw from? Much thanks.

The Iron Throne is also covered in
Power of Faerun.

Does it mention how the Iron Thrones relations are with the Zhentarim? It would seem that the two would be chief rivals in trying to dominate the trade routes from the Moonsea to the Sword Coast.



C&D should have that info about how the two groups don't get along but if it does then I'm pretty positive that LoD does.

Also, Ruins of Zhentil Keep has a couple of sections on the relations between the Iron Throne and the Black Network.

Cloak & Dagger, the 2 campaign box sets, the FRCS, Lords of Darkness. LoD has the most recent info on them.

There's also one or two tidbits in Forgotten Realms Adventures, Cult of the Dragon, and the 2e Cormyr supplement.

Melvos Hammerstars, who was breifly named "Hammstar," which I initially thought might be in homage to our very own Wooly one, but was apparently just a typo . . .

A little more since, for awhile, Sembia was off limits for TSR but they did add a bit more in the 2e campaign box set.

The FRCS

The 1e and 2e campaign box sets.

The Sembia novels? I believe the Forgotten Realms Adventures is the best resource on the cities. The countryside? No idea.
