It's not actually a PrC, but a Regional Background allowing for slightly different Regional Feats and Bonus Equipment according to Champions of Valor. |

Champions of Valor, p. 22.
It basically replaces the region, but only changes the Feats and Equipment available.
quote:
Regional Feats: Bullheaded, Dreadful Wrath, Fearless, Luck of Heroes.
Bonus Equipment: (A) masterwork longsword; or (B) chainmail and 25 masterwork arrows or bolts; or (C) two 2nd-level scrolls.

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

Why didn't we ever have a 'trollop of Elminster' PrC?  |

I'm gonna guess Hasbro/WotC's gender neutrality clause stops just about on *that* side of the line...

I didn't go as far as a PrC, but I once had a *list* for a humour-heavy Realms campaign I once ran. Each name on the list was eventually to have her own leitmotif, but I never finished work on it.  |

A repeating melodic theme or phrase, every time a particular character was introduced. Kinda like the "Imperial March" each and every time Darth Vader came on the screen in any of the classic Star Wars films.
It's a concept usually exemplified in Wagnerian operas, whereby a specific tune or phrase would be tied to a particular character or scene.
In my example above, I had planned to craft exclusive leitmotifs for each and every individual... usually either sexually evocative/provocative -- and have them play each time they appeared in my campaign. |

| Was just browsing the 3.5 archives on the WotC site and found this article: "Azoun's Offspring". Hope it helps (and that I didn't miss that another sage already posted said link). |

Oh I already have. But your going to get the credit for it. Happens alot. Even though I posted this very link on the very same page, not that far above you.
I get ignored alot everywhere though. Not a real shock. I mean, it was only 14 hours ago that I posted. Not even a day.

But technically, a female could just as easily be one.
Has anyone ever asked Ed about that? 
There is mention of two illegitimate daughters of the Dragon in a post by THO above, but I am not familiar with any other canon reference to female scions of the Forest Kingdom.
Tavantra Indimber is a female bastard (bitch...?) of Azoun.

I'm not. I'm being honest from my past on message boards. I'll post something, people ignore it, and little later someone will post exactly what I said, and everyone will clamber on it and talk about it. It's just my life.
I don't mean to offend I really don't. I'm sorry if you think that. |
