Looks like Dragon let the cat out of the bag. Look at Dragon #346, page 14, for a brief description of the Dragons of Faerun web enhancement I wrote.
For those still desperately waiting for #346, better known as George's Impiltur edition, the First Watch column says: "Supplementing this book, a web enhancement with art and maps will soon be available at wizards.com, detaing the gloom-tained City of Wyrmshadows, an area of the Underdark inhabited by drow half-dragons.

I'll definately be looking out for this one, and here's to hoping that it comes out more promptly than your second Waterdeep supplement (which was more than worth the wait, for what its worth). |

Do you mean WotSQ? If so, yes. It's dated after those novels.

Wait until you see my WE on WotJQ (any guesses?. Fortunately, I didn't write write a War of the Jello Queen Web Enhancement (they definitely need to consider their name/acronym plans more), but I do have an article coming out on the WOTC Website fairly soon that is completely unrelated to any of the other material.
I haven't yet decided what I'm going to do for an WE for DoF (Kinda want to see the final cut first). |

Hello-
I'm curious Eytan, since you mention not having written the WE for DoF yet - is that part of the contracts?
Also - with a multiple-author product - is it pre-decided who writes these - or do you guys gust talk about it?
Just kinda curious I guess.

We are very encouraged to do web enhancements, but it's not part of the contract. Sometimes, when something good gets cut from the book because it just doesn't fit or because we need room for something else, we can use that as (or as part of) as Web Enhancement. Much of the time, however, we just come up with a new idea. This is often based on fan requests, especially during the month when the book is released. Eric and I talked a fair bit about possibilities for WE's while we were writing DoF. Now, I will just wait and see what the final version seems like (even the illustrations give ideas) and fan requests and take it from there. |

A write-up of Krashos Morueme. Definitely worthy of a web enhancement!

I'm usually not someone to push for more numbers than absolutely necessary in a text, but...Gem-dragons of the Realms with a 3.5 update of those particular varieties of dragon. |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist. Terry Pratchett |

There's no real consistent policy as far as I know. I have authored the aforementioned WE for DoF already. (Basically, a chapter from DoF that didn't fit.) That does not preclude Eytan from offering to do so as well. It's up to Wizards really.

Use a sharper stick... If it hurts so much, do as we ask      |

It's funny you say that - I've always enjoyed the thought of turning up at a GEN-CON FR seminar and asking "in the know" questions and seeing if anyone picked up that it was me. I'm guessing that the accent would be the giveaway.

Don't you know that all FR game designers have resistance 30 to electricity and and are immune to critical hits. |

Two Web Enhancements for Dragons of Faerun are currently in development. I think that Eric's will be available much sooner than the one I wrote. |
