Talk:Nerath

Oh dear. We should be very careful about introducing lore from different worlds in unrelated campaign settings. We don't want to be the Nerath/Points-of-Light wiki. Pages like this should have a specific Realms focus, only showing lore from Forgotten Realms material and only showing lore that directly pertains to the Forgotten Realms setting or is vital for clarity. Links to another wiki that detail this other setting also strongly recommended.

I'm aware that the Oerth and Ravenloft pages are in rough shape. A better model for is Earth, which only tells us exactly what we'd learn from Realms material no more. That is, what do Realms sages know about Earth? What do they know about Nerath?

Furthermore, the page will need an in-universe point-of-view, that is, not mentioning the sourcebooks and novels within the main text of the article. — BadCatMan (talk) 01:39, November 21, 2016 (UTC)


 * That was what I tried to do. Since the Gates of Madness novel specifically says that 1). Demascus, the protagonist of the Sword of the Gods novels, is from Nerath world (he was trapped in a portal and send to the Realms), and 2). the Abyssal plague (the infection) originated in the Nerath world and traversed the space-time to other worlds (Faerun is specifically mentioned in an Abyssal Plague article in Dragon Magazine 192).


 * Also, Heroes of the Elemental Chaos supplement specifically mentions that the Dawn War mentioned in 4e core books (thus, PoL stuff) is the same war mentioned in the 4e FRCS and in the 4e Dark Sun Campaign Setting.


 * Maybe should I remove the geography stuff? I have no problem with that and is the only stuff not related with FR (beyond a statement in Chris Perkins' Twitter that Nentir Vale was originally designed to be part of the FR setting).--Zeromaru X 16:21, November 21, 2016 (UTC)
