'Tis very, very true. I consider F&P to be a pale shadow of the trilogy of god books.
As I've pointed out before, another uncovered portfolio is mischief. |

Were the stars portals to the plane of Radience? Or were they holes in the sphere wall? Sigh. It's been too long since I've read Spelljammer. I know the stars were tied into it somehow.
And Erevan Illesere is the elven god of mischief (the only one I can find in Demihuman Deities; oddly enough, the halflings don't have a god of mischief). This doesn't help with the human pantheon, though. |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be...
Sigh... And now 4e as well. |

FRCS page 238, shows the elven god Erevan Ilesere as having chaos, elf, luck, and trickery. could the change between editions have changed mischief to trickery?? All of the races pantheons within the FRCS, describes show one of their respective god's as having this portfolio, for humans it is Cyric. |

Those are his domains. :) Page 239 shows his actual portfolios. |
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

Yes, they were portals that connected to the Plane of Radiance but they are also writings on the crystal shell/sphere. |

The "stars" in both Realmspace and Krynnspace were portals to the Plane of Radiance.
Whereas in Greyspace... the stars were embedded jewels in the crystal sphere.

:) For some reason, a lot of people get those two things confused and I'm not sure why, exactly. |
