I was doing some research on a story I'm writing and it led me to the wiki on blueflame ghosts here
http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Blueflame_ghost
This wiki states:
"Larloch created the Blueflame items with the help of the Imprisoners by binding the spirits of three liches to the items. Each of the items possesses its own power when the ghost is imprisoned but the power is dormant when the ghost is outside the item."
and this wiki link for the imprisoners states something similar
"The Imprisoners were a group of powerful mages working before the Spellplague for Larloch who imprisoned spirits in magic items. The ultimate goal was apparently to preserve some of Larloch's power so he could access it later. The items created were known as Blueflame items and had powerful magic contained within."
Does anyone remember roughly where at in the novels it talked about the origins and Larloch? I'd like to reread through the sections.

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

| nm, found it right at the end of Bury Elminster Deep. It didn't say much more than what's above. I was hoping there was more of a reveal. |

I think the Wiki has got it slightly wrong also, as it seems there is only one "Imprisoner" and that was Larloch. I can't see any reference to a group of mages working for Larloch.
