I'd like to thank all of the contributors to the site and the admins that maintain the site. A lot of good original reference material. I've been reading through the site and really impressed. I'm sure my thumb will becomed ink stained before long.
Thanks again

Welcome to Candlekeep!
Feel free to ask any questions you may have... A lot of us have been Realms fans for years, and we know a thing or three about the setting. Plus, we've got some of the authors and creators here! 
As for the rest of us, we are friendly, mostly harmless, and occasionally strange... Enjoy your stay!  |

Wooly,
Your post brings up an interesting point. Besides what is gleamed from Mr. Greenwood and the creators from their forum chats.... what of the original candlekeep published material is considered canon?
Thanks, |

| Really only Ed's material is official canon because he contract states as such unless TSR/WOTC changes it with an in game explaination. Hence the Time of Troubles. :) |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

| Ed wasn't in on the design of the whole "Time of Troubles" event in FR? |

He was but that wasn't my point. My point was that TSR had to come up with a in game reason to kill off some of the deities and switch the world from 1e to 2e. The whole point of the ToT's was to have a in game reason for the rule changes. |
