Hi,

I'm looking for a reference on the Moorsedge keeps that can be seen on the FR Interactive Atlas in the southern high moor.

(I've already searched the many .pdf I have and found nothing)

Load the map "High moor.FCW". (I have the 3 patchs installed).

Can't immediately find the reference. If no one else does, I'd ask Eric Boyd directly.

*** Casts "Raise Scroll" ***

I guess no-one ever found these?

I see them in the FRIA, but I was wondering what canon source these were mentioned in?

I got them put in the FRIA.

They are referenced in the write-up of the Fallen Kingdom in FR11 - Dwarves Deep.

Dwarves Deep is one of my favorite books...

I just wish they would do more racial history books for the Realms now!

The Old Grey Box and AD&D for me!

Yep, Eric and I noted that the borders of the Fallen Kingdom as stated in FR11 included the High Moor and that this was a long way away from any of the realm's major population centres (save for the underground dwarven city of Kanaglym). Given this, we thought that the realm would have established a series of border forts/towers to have some forewarning of any humanoid incursions from their eastern borders.

Okay, that's what I kinda thought (not that they were Dwarvish or from FR11 - just what they were 'all about').

Methinks there placement in the FRIA is a bit off... personally I'd spread them out a bit more and on up the western border of the moor.

Perhaps Kanaglym was the hub for all of them, and they were connected by Underways? That tunnel system beneath Dragonspear and the Moor seems rather extensive (perhaps some of it even dating back to the time of Miyeritar). According to the High Moor accessory, its so extensive it even has its own name - the Undermoor.

I guess when they pulled out of the area, they left behind a group of 'watch gnomes'.

The High Moor is another region that could use its own sourcebook, along with the High Forest. Such immense areas with so little detail. Thanks for all your help, guys.
