Ok...I have two references for this nation which once existed in the modern lands of "The Ride":
1) A reference in the Pool of Radiance Computer Game concerning Tyranthraxus and the fall of Barze...could I get a verification of that reference from someone that owns the game or has verifiable lore pertaining to that reference?
2) A new map, post-spellplague, for the Kingdom of Vaasa. This map places the "Fallen Kingdom of Barze" just north of Thar between the West Galena Mountains (in the east) and the Vercy Wood (in the west).
What, if anything, does anyone know concerning the Kingdom of Barze?
For that matter...I'd NEVER seen the "Vercy Wood" until looking at that map either! Anyone know anything about that either?

Ok...some information about the Kingdom of Barze:
Founded by the Netherese Arcanist named Barze.
Existed c. -456 DR to -351 DR (destroyed by Tyranthraxus and the Twisted Ones).
Anyone else want to chat about this? |

I would not mind discussing it - though I have already shared with you the few pieces of information I had on the matter. ;)
By the way, I have a question - what triggered your interest for the Kingdom of Barze in the first place? |

A map of course! I love maps...and a map coming from an article written by Brian R. James concerning Vaasa includes upon it the "Fallen Kingdom of Barze".
It made me remember a reference by someone else of the Pool of Radiance...and viola!
I was interested in more than just Barze of course...but of the advanced human civilization that created the Citadel of the Raven and such...
Alas...Barze was NOT the kingdom that founded the Citadel. |

the in game references occurs during the Mendor’s Library quest and the game refers to PRJ #21 |
I hope Candlekeep continues to be the friendly forum of fellow Realms-lovers that it has always been, as we all go through this together. If you don’t want to move to the “new” Realms, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with either you or the “old” Realms. Goodness knows Candlekeep, and the hearts of its scribes, are both big enough to accommodate both. If we want them to be.
(Strikes dramatic pose, raises sword to gleam in the sunset, and hopes breeches won’t fall down.)
Enough for now. The Realms lives! I have spoken! Ale and light wines half price, served by a smiling Storm Silverhand fetchingly clad in thigh-high boots and naught else! Ahem . .
So saith Ed. <snip>
love to all,
