This is tied in with the celestial event that starts off my campaign, so I need more details than provided by the GHotR.

Thanks

There are no more details. Dragons of Faerun has a short note (it is the main source), but that's it, I think.

-The plotline was born in Dragons of Faerūn, which was one of the last 3e era sourcebooks, so, seemingly, a lot of possible plots that were introduced here got glossed over, with the advance of the timeline not too much later, in the 4e books.

-Thats how WotC should have introduced the Dragonborn into the Realms.

Or, you know, they could have actually had them related to the Dragonborn they already introduced into the Realms in Dragons of Faerun.

-I'm pretty sure that's what Delta is alluding to.

A lot of people are going to moan at this...

But I introduced Draconians into my Forgotten Realms on a limited basis.

Tiamat's church, when finding good eggs, would transform them. It was a very limited number of them; nothing close to the numbers found in Dragon Armies or anything.

My party never actually ran into any that they recognized though. There was a whole group of Sivak that were spies in the campaign I was running, but the party had no clue. They did run into an Aurak too...but he was cloaked heavily and hooded...they actually thought he was wearing a magical dragon mask of all things. He almost wiped them out and they had to run away. They went back when they were regrouped and had hired a couple meat-shields to wear the red jersey; but the Aurak had moved on on his errands for Tiamat's church.

You can make Draconians work rather well I think out of the Fallen Eggs.

As for the original topic of this thread...I'm sorry I hijacked it.

The Old Grey Box and AD&D for me!
