Something I have been wondering about for quite sometime now, is What all flora and fonna is there to be found within the Realms?
I know of the ones from the setting book, but its never really expanded beyond that.

Im assuming that most if not all the plants and animal life from Earth can be found there, but is there anything else as well?

Personaly I dont care if its all official content aslong as its generaly excepted that something is or is not present.

The reason I ask this is that I am plotting an outbreak somewhere within the realms, and was wanting the cure to be something other then the local cleric, Im willing to make new plant life myself, but if its already there, all the better. Doesnt really have to be any specific thing in truth, Im just wanting to add some details to my game that I have noticed are lacking since 2ed.

So if its not to much hassle (and even if it is) please post all the indegeounus (sp?) (native) plants and or animals that you have personaly collected data on within the Realms.

Thanks in advance,
Tifus the Walker of Planes.

Well met

I believe trees were covered a little in the Players Guide to the Forgotten Realms Campaign 2nd edition accessory.

Ye may also be interested in the Flora and Fauna article in Volume II of the Candlekeep Compendium.

This subject is an area that I have personally long hoped
WotC to cover. A sourcebook devoted purely to this is on my wish list

Thanks for the Info o' Greatest of the Sages,
@Wooly you wouldnt know where I could find this Box do you? Or will I have to browse the used book stores in my area to find it?

@Alaundo hehehe, Thanks for the direct Link, would have taken me a day or so to find that otherwise.

I rely on eBay, myself. I see the set pop up on there every couple of weeks.

Some other scribes use other sources. I believe Nobleknight.com is one of them.
