I remember that in one of the Older Realms of X Novels there was a story about some humanoid catlike creatures (I dont think they where Werecats) in Cormyr, anyone remember what the story was called and which Realms of X Book it was in?

I always figured the two stories (the one in the comic and the short story) were related somehow.

There was also the story arc in the AD&D comic early on (2nd story arc) where slavers drag Vajra back to Abon Duum and Manshaka only to get entangled in a story involving the Cat Lord (a former Greyhawk godling and master of all cats). Can't recall if I noted any of that info into LOI beyond mentioning Duum's passing.

I remember the mention of Abon Duum, but that was about it.

And wasn't it the third story arc? Spell Games, I think it was called...

Helping out the lesser forums. You're a good scribe Dargoth.



I normally go over there to poke Eric Mona about the lack of Realms articles in Dragon and Dungeon magazine

Okay, now that the Scavenger Hunt is over, I'll ask. Why the need for the story? Just couldn't recall it? Or getting ideas for some unsuspecting DM/player?

Glad to hear. That's the anthology I originally reached for when I read your first post. But, I stopped myself recalling "The Family Business" by I believe James Lowder was in that tome. I didn't think they would have two stories featuring Cormyr figures. I see I was wrong.

I think the main bad guy was a "Cat lord" or something



Damn, I am drawing a blank. Sorry I can't be more help. Maybe Realms of Mystery? I'm not familiar with that anthology's stories.

Not Cormyr: A Novel, but it was still set in Cormyr per your first post?

I suspect its in Realms of Magic because I cant seem to find my copy of it

From memory the short story has a picture of a guy statnding in the street and in the background theres a couple of cats



Not Realms of Magic then. I did a flip through and there is no picture matching that description. In fact, all the stories have the same picture at the top of the first page in that anthology.
