The following is from "Questions for Eric L Boyd":

Edit: We should add "DRH" to a list of common CK abbreviations, if such a thing exists... hopefully The Sage or Wooly will notice this... or maybe I'll just PM them with this text.



Okay, instead of PMing, I just added a new scroll to this shelf; it seemed appropriate. To be honest (TBH?), I don't even know if such a list exists... but if it doesn't (IID?), it should. I can help compile it, if you'd like (IYL?). Yes, I'm being silly with the last three, but DRH should definitely be in such a list, as should RSE (for which I can think of about half a dozen definitions, all equally correct IMHO).

Playing in the Realms since the Old Grey Box (1987)... and *still* having fun with material published before 2008, despite the NDA'd lore.

If it's comparable in power with non-magical abilities, it's not magic.

Well, we already have a list of abbreviations and acronyms used here at Candlekeep, which any scribe can search through [or add new terms, when appropriate].

Enjoy!

Thanks Sage! I'll post DRH to that scroll in the hopes that scribe Fillow will include it in the list. I'll have another look through it when I'm more awake and see if anything else is missing.
