I have a bunch of questions related to dwarves within the Realms that I'd like to pose to the sages of the Keep. Like many I have outstanding questions within Ed's Q&A forum so I'd thought I'd ask here first prior to adding to the mountain.
First off some parameters. I've decided I don't care for 4E or the 4E Realms setting. So I am looking for answers based on Core knowledge prior to the Spell Plague. If a 4E soure ever sneaks in some relevant historical knowledge I would be interested in that. I am also asking them as if the Dwarven portion of the 'reduction of deities' does not occur.
So first off: In what source is the first appearance of the dwarves recorded as being within the Yehimal Mountain range? I had thought it was FR11 but can't find it there. So Demihuman Dieties?
Thanks

I think it may have been in Steven Schend's Lands of Intrigue timeline, or perhaps the related material.
I thought that came up in regards to the empire of Shanatar.
Edit: I just did quick pdf search, and didn't find it in there. If it's in DD, then that is most-likely the first place it is mentioned. |

As I thought.
Next up:
Other then Dwarves Deep, Demihuman Deities, 3rd Ed Campaign Setting and Races of Faerun are there any other sources which hint at how Dwarves emerged from/arrived at Faerun?
Thanks! |

| Grand History of the Realms, for one. It gives approximate dates for the migration from the central dwarfhome into Faerun, Zakhara, and Kara-tur and later migrations. It starts in an entry for -16000 DR. |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be...
Sigh... And now 4e as well. |
