Wonderful quality on the Cormanthor maps. Thanks especially for Elventree which has been a point of interest for my players. I'm sure they will enjoy the map.

Arravis, I really liked that picture of the "sign in downtown Phlan". It was quite creative and you could actually see signs like those posted in the streets.

I also found your document on the Monastery of the Yellow Rose to be very useful and well done. Where did you find all the information, if you don't mind me asking?

I agree--that was neat! I've never seen anything like it.

Great maps and stuff--I put some of it on my WinZip.

Again, wonderful material Arravis.

I wonder... Do you take requests?

Well met

Fantastic, Arravis. My word, thou hast been busy. Of course, why this has been kept from us for so long has yet to be explained!

Thanks for all the comments, definately appreciated. I actually have quite a bit more stuff, I just need to gather it all and have it in a "postable" format. I'll work on fixing that as time permits :).

For those interested the information on Phlan is all based on canon information, except for the list of goods on specific merchants.

The information on the Monastery of the Yellow Rose is partly canon info, from the few sources on it (The Bloodstone Lands and related adventure series, and all the info I could dig up on Ilmater). Much of the rest is based on a mix of religions, but for the most part it's based on the training of zen-buddhist monks and partly on catholic monks. Buddhism in particular seemed fitting since the alleviating of suffering is a focus.

The information on the Nine Hells is gathered from a massive amount of research, all the way back to the original 1st edition books, dragon magazines, 3rd party products, and a massive amount of other books. I wouldn't say 100% canon, since it involves quite a bit of information from non-WoTC sources, but definately includes a large number of canon material.

I'll gladly hear requests, but because of time constraints I may not be able to do them.

Lastly, I'm just very pleased that you have enjoyed the posted material since it represents quite a bit of work and effort. It's good to see that it might have a life and use beyond our own gaming group :). Thank you!

Actually, I was just curious as to whether you might want to try your skills at mapping some of the far eastern FR domains... such as Kara-Tur for example.

It's never been an area that's been heavily mapped out, so...
