Greetings!
I am new to Candlekeep and am looking for any information someone can point me to regarding a list of artifacts and magic items specific to the Realms. I am also looking for conversions of items from 2nd edition to 3.0 or 3.5, especially items found in FR4 "The Magister". I have "Magic of Faerun" but this only mentions a few of the items in question. I am trying to put together a database of Realms specific magic items and artifacts to be posted on a webpage.
All the best and Thanks!

I don't know of any singular reference of Realmsian magic items and as I'm sure you're aware they're spread out all over the place and many are in long OOP resources. For example, just last night I was thumbing through one of the older Dragon Annuals and came across Ed's Magic of Myth Drannor piece. There are several magic items that appeared therein that haven't been mentioned anywhere else ever again, much less in 3.X format.
As I begin converting magic items to 3.X for my own use I intend to put them up on a dedicated web page, but as I'm always busy with work it won't be any time soon. If I do get something done, though, I'll post a notice here. |

This sounds like a job for Sage of Perth....track him down and I bet he'll have your answer....he's the Head Sage in Charge of Stuffiness or Almighty Lord of Washing Alaundo's Socks or something.... |
My latest Realms-based short story, about a bard, a paladin of Lathander and the letter of the law, Debts Repaid. It takes place before the "shattering" and gives the bard Arion a last gasp before he plunges into the present.http://candlekeep.com/campaign/logs/log-debts.htm |

Yes, there are probably several hundred magic items published in numerous sources. I just thought someone may have thrown together some list or reference page to make researching these a much easier task. Since I dont personally receive Dragon magazine I rarely have a chance to keep up with anything FR related in that publication. |

Learned Scribe Maecenus of Westgate,
I would like to begin by suggesting you check out this URL below and from there you can check the individual sections, which are sourced/cited.
https://www.realmshelps.net/magic/items/artifactf.shtml
However, the real epic data of Realms items is here on this one and only epic site! Check this out from Master Thornton:
http://www.candlekeep.com/library/articles/magicdb.htm
I hope this is helpful, and best regards.

@cpthero2,
You've discovered Alaundo's dusty old library, an awesome collection of Realmslore, lol. Sad that so few scribes seem aware it exists.
I'd be surprised if the scribe you're addressing will read your response ... he's evidently not been seen in Candlekeep since 2005, perhaps a victim of the Spellplague. |

Great Reader Ayrik,
I have indeed: it is wonderful material. In fact, regarding your quote..

...that is one of two reasons that I am reviving old posts: there are people that have no idea whatsoever of this wonderful lore, work, and love for these epic Realms. So, I figured I would answer questions, and allow those questions to be put back to folk who likely never would have looked 2000 posts back, to some amazing work. You are correct: it is unlikely that we will get a reply, but you never know. 
Best regards,
