Posted - 04 Mar 2021 : 13:13:23 The Realms are vast and teeming with locations ripe for a novel or series. Many locations have been used plenty of times before for novels (Waterdeep, Neverwinter, etc), while many have remained untouched. I realize the novel line is all but dead, but let's have some fun anyway.
If you could pick a new setting/location for a Realms novel what would it be?
Zakhara would be my choice.

Posted - 25 Mar 2021 : 12:51:14 Not so much a specific place, but a specific focus - the Duergar get a lot of screentime as secondary characters or as antagonists, but I don't think I've seen a single book focused on them. A story set in say, Gracklstugh. Or Dunspeirrin, for that matter, could work. Given how boring Laduguer comes off as sometimes, focusing on a city that follows Deep Deurra would probably be more entertaining. |

Posted - 25 Mar 2021 : 02:35:09 I’m very much an outlier in this regard but I’ve always wished that the Realms had stayed “Faerûn”. I’ve found none of the add ons inspiring and several of them cringe-worthy. But I would have loved to have seen a novel set in Sossal. A novel of depth mind you that showed us this place in coherent and understandable detail.

Posted - 04 Mar 2021 : 15:21:06 I'd love to see something set in Nimbral, personally. It's a different beast than the other magocracies of the Realms, what with the Leira angle, and I think you could tell some fun stories there. |
