Greetings fellow scribes and sages
One of my players of my campaign wants to create a new character. He wants a Moon Elf and we thought it would be a good idea that the originated from Tethyr, since i havent used that region in my campaign since now. The player will stick to an ongoing campaign in the Dalelands so he wont be adventuring in Tethyr, the information would be purely for background and/or future hooks.

We play at 1380DR , and the character is male, his class is Fighter/Rogue and we thought his patron could be Sehanine Moonbow

Any knowledge/Ideas about Tethyrian elves? any interesting events at that time that it could affect the child's life at the time? (i assume as a young adult should be born around 1240)


Brainstorming is welcome too!
Hurray! Another Hero has born!

You'll want to read through the book on Tethyr in the Lands of Intrigue boxed set. 'Tis available as a free PDF download at WotC. Also, Elaine's Silver Shadows novel will prove useful. Grand History has some timeline tidbits too, and there's some brief notes in the "Imperial South" chapter of Lost Empires of Faerūn as well.

Elaine Cunningham's "Silver Shadows" from Songs&Swords series would definitely be useful, as the whole book is about Arilyn and the elves there.
