Can anybody tell me what the dragons of the realms are, including their size, alignment, and habitation?

| That's quite a request. Check out the "Wyrms of the North" section of the wizards sight. There's a lot of information there, with many dragons of various types described, including stats, locations, temperments, and life stories. Here's the main page. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/wn/20040421a Look through the archives; you'll find some interesting and unique dragons. |
But what have all the passing years/Done, but breed new angers, fears?/Show me now an equal worth/To innocence I earned at birth. |

Minus size - I am working on (and have been for an a couple of months) an updated and revised version of the one from Candlekeep, which will include all published (and a few homebrew) dragons (with sources I have access to) to date, with alignments, locations, class levels, time + cause of death etc. where applicable and available.  |

Thank you, everyone. I seem to have found what I was looking for. I hope to also check out your forum, Sarelle.

My next question is: What was the name of the frost wyrm Drizzt Do'Urden killed when he retrieved Icingdeath, the frostbrand scimitar +3?  |

Icingdeath was the dragon's name. Somewhere along the way, the sword was named after the dragon.
Ingeloakastimilizilian was the dragon's real name. |

| Oh, thank you. I needed the long name of the dragon? I believe that was in the Icewind Dale Trilogy, was it not? Wulfgar helped out Drizzt and swung Aegis-Fang at the giant icicle to kill Icingdeath, correct? |

Oh. I never read any of the books involving that time period. Regis, I believe was involved in some kind of thieving accident with the shadow master Pasha Pook. I think that she unknowingly gave him a necklace that was a replica of one magical one, but she accidentally gave him the true magical amulet. |

There is one of the smallest dragons in the realms that I do not know. I have seen a picture of it before. It was of this tiny dragon in comparison to a human skull that was bigger than it. What is this tiny dragon called? |

Wasn't Pasha Pook a man? |

Are you referring to pseudodragons? I believe they're roughly the size, to say nothing of their similar temperament to, cats. |

I gathered from the Icewind Dale Trilogy that Pasha Pook was a female, but now that I think about it, I don't know if it was a man or woman. I guess I'll have to refer to the book again.
Or, why doesn't someone else contribute to that question? |

Pseudodragons!!! Thank you! I need that for my story, so that will come in handy... I will have a pseudodragon companion. His name will be... Glove! Because he can fit into a glove! Cool!
*Ahem* I seem to have lost my composure. Thank you. |

I have a scroll of questions within the miniature tome at my side. This is important.
Does Elminster have a son, and if so, what is his name?

Not that I know of, but it was revealed a while ago that he had several daughters, most residing in Cormyr, though one did turn up in Waterdeep...

Yes, her name is Narnra, yet if he has no sons... It just makes it all the sweeter to for posting a new story that I am going to write. I just need more info. |

| What is the strongest sword in all of Abeir-Toril? Is it currently possessed by someone, or lost in the bottom of the ocean? |

I think there are going to be a handful of nominations as to what various scribes feel is the "strongest sword." |

That's fine. All the more for me to learn about new, powerful swords. Scribes should tell what they think is the most powerful weapon and why? |

It's understandable that you did not realize the topic might have been previously discussed. Thus, there is no reason to feel embarassed.
If you have any problem finding the topic using the search function give a shout and I'm sure one of the helpful and considerate scribes will try to assist you. |

Helpful? Considerate? What's that? (Seriously, though, feel free to contact me for help.) |
