Posted - 20 Mar 2004 : 06:40:46 Okay anyone know the premises of future FR novels?
I hear theres going to be a FR novel about Khelben going mad and ending up killing a 'prominent' FR character.
What is the story of 'The Rage' dragon series?
I'm mega curious.
Kudos.

Nope. Alusair would be the first to leap to the kid's defense and right to inherit the throne she's reluctantly forced to occupy at present. She'll be dancing when she gets to put the heavy crown down.
I was thinking more of upstart or long-scheming nobles out to wrest the crown from the Obarskyrs and attempt to start the first new dynasty in Cormyr in centuries....

While I'm sure there'll be others worthy of reading, the one I'm most anxious over is Ed & Elaine's Waterdeep/City of Splendors novel, whatever its final title.
Steven Who wonders if a novel 15 years down the line will match King Azoun V's rise to the throne to similar events in 1976's Deryni Rising...(not in a copyright violation kind of way but a battle to be allowed to take his own throne sort of thing...) |

Posted - 09 Apr 2004 : 18:47:29 Steven I wanted to ask you a question about the Moonstars. We have a supplement guide to Code of the Harpers. Since Khelben is the figurehead what things would be different if Code of the Moonstars was ever done?
How would Khelben react in this case...
Laeral introduces a young candidate to the rank of the Moonstars to be sponsered. During that time Khelben notices certain aspects of the younglin' personality. So little uncustomary for Khelben he notices that this candidate very much resembles him in personality in both certains aspects of him at that age and certain aspects at his current age. Would he watch or tutor this candidate more closely?
How does Khelben deal with people who have a strong a personality and set of convictions as he does? I don't think it has happened but in a debate how would Khelben react if he truly lost the debate? |

Think about it. If Blackstaff were to "go mad" who's going to be there for him? You certainly can't expect Laeral to just stand by and do nothing right? Not only that, but the death of Laeral would be the solidifying factor to his turn and madness. If he were to ever come to his senses it won't be because Laeral redeemed him, she's probably haunt him as a harper wraith variant. :) |

I disagree
Banes return has actually weakened the good guys
The Goodguys have never had it so good when Cyric became a god. which is why I think Ao allowed Bane back, there wasnt a Greater Power for LE in the Pantheon which effected the Balance.

I think she's a very good candidate for it.

Truly, I had never given much thought to *why* the characters made it into canon sources -- I was just really glad that they did! I enjoyed the comics, so seeing the characters pop up in official references was a really cool thing. Even more cool was them having prominent roles.
Though I still wonder what happened with Onyx and that girl he was in love with...
Kyriani was also mentioned in Powers & Pantheons, on page 157.

First of all, Thank you Mr Steven Schend for shedding some light on these shadey matters. Thank you for the time you have taken out and the time you will be taking out hopefully again in the future!
*** SPOILERS***
So do you, or can you, confirm that there will be a novel (set in waterdeep?) about the Harper Schism? Or atleast about Khelben's actions? i.e. The scepter of the sorcerer kings fiasco, or shaking hands with Fzoul, or even the fact that Elminster is silent throughout this whole time...
I can't confirm, deny, or even guess as to a novel about the Harper Schism, as I'm hardly in the loop any more. If anything like that ever happened, I pray I'd get a shot at doing something with it, since it was about 85% my plot with input from various and sundry during the design process. As it is, those decisions are made well outside my purview and, like everyone else, I have to wait to see what's coming out.
The Scepter of the Sorcerer Kings "fiasco," as you put it, was one of my plans I insisted upon; that artifact was way, way, way too powerful and that's why I went out of my way to remove it from the Realms. Thought I did the same with the baneliches and house cleaning of Banite remnants to clear the field and pit Cyric vs. Xvim...but that's changed too, I guess.
Re: Khelben's dealings with Fzoul: "I believe your world has that pat phrase to suit the bill: `Better the devil you know...'"
I also have the feeling that Khelben has other things he's guarding against and plotting against that forced him to deal with Fzoul. Ponder exactly what sorts of things could be going on if cutting a deal and trading power with the Chosen of Xvim/Bane is the lesser of those evils....
And Elminster keeps mum about a great many more things than most ever realize whilst distracting y'all with so much lore on so many other things.
quote: Also, how come and why is it, that the return of Bane into the FR Pantheon has ever been done in novel format? (Calling Denning, Lowder and Ciecin!) Surely he is one of the more awe inspiring and evil Gods of the realms? Shouldn't he have like a trilogy about his return? I'm just asking since you have touched upon the subject in Claok & Dagger. And what do you think about the whole "Return of Bane" scenario? One more thing, the character of Scyulla Darkhope in the FRCS is she the same Scyulla in C&D?
No ideas as to why there's no Bane Arisen novel/trilogy, other than the planning for books happens long in advance, so the idea may not have sprung up in time to coordinate a novel with the FRCS release and said changes. <shrug> Who knows? I don't, but I've learned never to say never....
One guess I have is this: There's quite a few books out there about the gods already. Book Department may look at the plot and its potential sales and figure it might be going to the same well too many times. Also, it's not going to be a new story by the time they get to tell it, and that's hardly the best way to position a novel.
Personally, Bane's never done it for me, even back in Grey Box days; still, it's always curious to me that so many people had no comment on Bane whatsoever until he was killed in the Time of Troubles. He was no more or less mentioned than any other god until he was taken off the table and suddenly his fans crop up like crazy. Weird way to build a fan base, dying and all....

I thought it was more interesting personally to pit the two bad boys against each other without ol' Daddy Bane and his followers kicking both of them in the shins from the sidelines. <shrug>
As for how I feel about the return of Bane and the erasure of Xvim in the hierarchy? It introduces some very cool story ideas and opens more options for play and that's great. Like many things, it's probably not what I would have done, if given a vote, but done is done, and it's been fun watching it play out. (My reason for keeping him dead comes from being a comic book fan--I HATE the revolving door on the afterlife, and thus, if we've killed something, let's vow to keep it dead. Either that or start the rumors that the returned Bane is really a severely cheesed-off Bucky Barnes... )
The BEST thing about Bane's return within a campaign and world is that it actually helps the good guys by keeping the bad guys constantly fighting amongst themselves over who's the worst of the worst, allowing the good guys to shore up defenses.
If I were running a game, I'd seriously think about a subversive group within Bane's religious houses still secretly worshiping Xvim and looking at breeding with and/or summoning demons to recreate the Baneson to challenge Popsie for the power again. Scarier still could be a heretic sect of Xvimlar establishing an alliance with House Dlardrageth and the fey'ri in hopes of gaining power and breeding a god that could dominate elven and human pantheons alike! <insert shudder of evil glee at the sorts of RSEs I could never before think about due to campaign integrity....>
As for Scyulla, she's the same character I believe....

I know these are one questions too many, but they do kinda stick out in me head most of the time and would like someone in an esteemed position as yourself tell me whats right and wrong, rather than me being a part of a rumor.
Thank you once again.
No esteemed position here, pal. I'm just a regular guy like most of y'all with hopes that I can get some freelance work here and there, whether it be in short stories, novels, game products, or whatnot. All I wrote above are off-the-cuff opinions and ideas, nothing more or less. Take them with a serious grain of salt and then use them or ignore them as they suit your game campaign....just like you should have done with stuff I wrote when I still was a TSR/WotC staffer.

Halaster either dies some how or manages to escape from being the Lord of Undermountain
Undermountain goes nuts like it did during Halasters Harvest spit monsters out into the streets of Waterdeep. KB seeing that theres no way to stop it with out someone taking Halaster job, KB "takes one for the team" and becomes the Lord of Undermountain which of cause makes him mad.
As for who he kills a few guesses: Lord Piergon, Manshoon (the clone inside Undermountain) or if its a particulalry dark novel Laeral |

Okay, I still haven't been able to recall as to who told me, or where I read, about the Khelben going mad storyline.
I CAN however, point to some vague clues as to why he COULD go mad.
The CLOAK & DAGGER product shows Khelben in an EXREMELY shadey light.
It did, didn't it?
quote: I mean here is the founder of the Harpers who gets KICKED out of the harpers
Actually, he quit rather than answer the charges laid before him. I suppose it could be argued ala "he said/she said" but in Khelben's mind, he dismissed the Harpers and their allegations rather than explain his actions. In some Harpers' minds, I suppose it could be said he was dismissed, but I tend to take Khelben's side. <shrug>
quote: and ends up upsetting a LOT of them in the process, I mean the Harpers split BECAUSE of him.
It would appear so, wouldn't it? Then again, an awful lot of Khelben's long-time agents didn't seem all that surprised by those events and easily folded into the Moonstars. <cryptic smirk>
quote: He can't even travel through Harper portals, I mean the club is mega upset with his 'actions' -- Heck even I'd be.
Who says he can't travel through Harper portals? Given that he's helped refound the Harpers at least twice in recorded history and that he and Elminster are at the heart of many of the magics the Harpers take for granted, I'd truly be surprised if he and his agents still don't make use of such resources as they can without being caught at it.
After all, it's the hoary old "I taught them everything THEY know, but I didn't teach them everything I know...."
Honestly, while many conservative Harpers gripe about the schism and Khelben's wrangling of many agents out of their ranks, many others simply continue their work and are starting to recognize that the only differencesamong them are:
A) Khelben's crew has a central authority through which all information and objectives flows.
B) The Moonstars don't always know why they're asked to perform certain tasks, but most have worked with Khelben long enough to know that even a piece of the puzzle is often important. Khelben's definitely a "need-to-know-basis" kinda boss, and only those who can work under such methods have become Moonstars.
C) Some Moonstars may note that much of their activity has had less to do with politics and trade and a bit more focus on watching various temples and whole religious orders, scoping out various magical personages and schools, and tracking down various lost lore, artifacts and items, and stalking those who make the latter tasks their livelihoods.
D) If your characters push any of the Chosen or other long-standing allies of Khelben's as to finding out his motivations, all give a stock answer: "The best way to ask a question of someone's motives is to ask directly. Be sure to leave instructions for your next of kin, should you disturb the Blackstaff uninvited, though...." If they are closer and might even deserve more of an answer, let them know "Khelben and those who act in his name operate on a slightly more expansive playing field than most, and while some of what he does seems nefarious in the short term, trust that he and his work toward the greater good of the Realms entire and worry little over short-term things like current politics or current administrations."
