What was the last D&D/FR source or sourcebook you read or referenced, and why? I'm interested in the answers, but this is an extremely easy question to spam up, so it's here so it won't lead to artificial inflation of people's post counts.
As for me, I was just looking up how metapsionic feats worked according to the 3.0 psionics system, of all things, to check a point someone made over on the WotC boards. |

I was looking through Underdark hoping to find an example of an orog enclave for my Menzo campaign. But of course that was a no go. The last book that actually helped me was Monster Mythlogy for the same campaign for the derro deities Diirinka and Diinkarazan for a campaign arc that I hope my players will latch onto. |

I looked through Lords of Darkness, 'cause I am working on the end plot of my long FR Campaign. The players have to face off against the cult of the Dragon and its leader Sammaster. Besodes reading the cult of the Dragon entry once again I took a closer look at the stats of Larloch as an example for a very powerful lich.

Maybe. Now think about this. Twin male/female incestuous demon worshippers throwing really sweet rave in the abyss.

Monsters of Faerun - looking up archliches. Been mostly sticking my nose in the FRCS over indexing it for the indexing project I am trying to get off the ground. I know i will be digging into Cormyr and Cult of the Dragon soon in prepping for a library game I help out with.

Since I am almost finished with the Magehound, I took out my copy of Shining South to check out the PrCs and how well they match up with what I have been reading. |

I thought I'd bump this old topic and say that the last thing I looked up was in Magic of Faerun, I believe it had something to do with that pesky Magister title.  |

Haven't we all...
Though another similar-styled sourcebook dealing with other mundane Realms issues would make a fine addition.

I know I've said that once or twice myself...
Though I must admit... Power of Faerun was the first 3e FR sourcebook, in a long time, that I read all the way through.
Ditto for me to, I found so much info and ideas just kept popping up as I read it. I've waited for a book like this for FR for years. I just wish it could have been longer. :( |

The FRCS for the same reason as Alaundo, but in the spirit of the scroll, I was looking through the Monster Manual trying to find a picture of a maralith I think it was... |

I'm flipping through Champions of Valor at a leisurely rate and enjoying it quite a bit, especially the stuff on Impiltur.
Recently searched through Expanded Psionics Handbook for the Psionic Weapon feat chain and relevant related topics. Working that into my revision of the Blade Kingdoms. It should be a way to keep the area very low psionics and differentiate the swordsmanship of the scarce Jhaamdathan remnants.
I also checked out the revised Psionic Weapon Master PrC from the Mind's Eye articles on the WotC/D&D site; found that rather appealing. |

The FRCS and the deity trilogy for references, as usual.

Yesterday I looked at Unapproachable East, Evermeet: A Novel, Cormanthyr, The Simbul's Gift, City of Splendors: Waterdeep, Volo's Guide to Waterdeep and Lost Empires of Faerūn.
The day before that I looked at Dragon Annual #2, Secrets of the Magister, The Seven Sisters, PH and DMG.

Lands of Intrigue which I've started to put through the printer - thank you for the freebie, WotC! - just because it's nice reading it without the computer-screen making my eyes bleed. |

Lands of Intrigue & Empires of the Shining Sea - two treasures in my Realms collection - to do some research for my resurrected PbeM and for the Journal of an Apprentice Scribe articles. |

Well met
Working my way through Power of Faerūn at the moment. The FRCS is also currently open, due to an ongoing project here at Candlekeep. |

The Milil entry in Faiths & Avatars and the Hanali Celanil write-up in Demihuman Deities... checking references for my Candlekeep Compendium "Keys to Music" article.

Okay, I just had to reference another Realms book: City of Splendors: Waterdeep.
I was about to post a question about a 2E spell, wondering if it had been flipped to 3E. I decided to Google it, and one of the hits listed the new name of the spell, which led me to look in that sourcebook for it. The spell had been flipped, but now I've got a question in Eric's queue about it.  |

Dragon Compendium Volume One . . . looking at stuff that would relate to the Realms and how it would fit in (BTW, go out and buy it, its back in print!) |

Faiths & Pantheons, a day or two ago. I checked it immediately after checking Faiths & Avatars, looking for a bit of lore on Shaundakul. |

Hello-
I recently finished up w/ Power of Faerun.
However - the last thing I referenced was either the 3rd FRCS, or Faiths & Avatars - as they are both right at the top of the 'recently accessed and need to be put away or looked at again' pile.
As an aside - I printed up the Grand History of the Realms yesterday too - so I glanced at parts of that out of curiosity also.
