Very nice George. Thank you for caring enough to share the "fluff" that we rarely get tio see in Realms articles these days. |

This is the July 2007 issue, #357. It's got Demogorgon and company on the cover.
Demogorgon and Sememmon. Much awesomeness.
Two great tastes that taste great together.
I'm looking forward to this!
No vestige love? I'm crushed. There's a tiny bit of Realmslore in that article. ;-)

Yes, I enjoyed that--thanks for sharing. Now to get my hands on the actual article... |

Thanks to all for their kind comments. As with all such work there is so much more I could have written. Mayhap, another day.
And I'm so pleased that Asgetrion was able to sneak a peek at the article when Alaundo wasn't looking.

I loved this article, and for some reason Sememmon has been one of my favorite characters for a long time. From my earlier campaigns to my most recent one, I've been more likely to use Sememmon than some of the other Zhent higher ups.
All that having been said, I have to say something, which I can't really shake no matter how hard I try. The picture of Sememmon on page 74 really reminds me of Gene Simmons for some reason. |

Ha ha!
I'll have to check my local gaming shop for this issue later--I checked late last week and the July issue still hadn't come in yet. |

Not sure if there's any point in me posting the stuff that got cut - it's not 'canon' after all until it gets published.

Can't recall, friend, but did I see the uncut or the cut version of this ? Now I'll actually have to hunt up a print copy if only to see if they had any decent art to go along with the gruesome twosome....

Thanks to Mister Krashos for all the new information on Sememmon and Ashemmi. (But so much for my idea of them trying to set up their own organization and recruiting the PCs as mostly-unwitting allies!)
And to Mister Boyd: I liked the stuff on vestiges. |

Maybe they could still do that. |

Okay folks, some bits snipped out of the Sememmon write-up:
Anything tragic or mentionable happened to them in the days after the Spellplague? Did they survive into 1400 Dr? |

There is no official answer to this. Like a thousand other details of the Realms, they lie fallow in the 1490s DR. Do what you want.
