Elminster after Spellplague
Waht happened to Elminster after the Spellplague?--8thGhazneth 18:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * He still resides in the Dalelands. From FRCG pg 108:
 * "Shadowdale: This dale remains peaceful and secure, even with the absence of powerful protectors of old, such as Storm Silverhand. Elminster resides there still, but his powers have diminished since Mystra’s fall."
 * I've also heard that he keeps himself locked up in his abode, as apparently he radiates Spellplague or something like that and is a threat to his surroundings. But I don't have a source for that, and it may just be pre-4E rumors.  21:36, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Elminster Must Die
Is anyone going to update this entry with the information from the latest book? As well as the entries on Storm Silverhand and The Simbul? BrooklynKnight 17:13, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Elminster unmasking Orbakh in 1373
Where is the information about Elminster helping uncover Orbakh in 'Other Events' from? I searched and couldn't find the source, the only thing pertaining to it is a thread on Candlekeep forums where people speculate that it is most likely an unofficial information from a homebrew campaign. Does anyone have a reliable source for this bit of information?

Name change
I would like to propose moving this article to Elminster, for the following reasons:
 * Elminster is the name he's referred to in the overwhelming majority of cases, with "Aumar" being almost exclusively used in historical contexts.
 * Elminster is his most familiar name, both to real-life readers, as well as to in-universe Realms inhabitants. The wiki uses mind flayer over illithid for similar reasons.

If moved, the article would still be categorized as "Aumar, Elminster", so as to keep family members sorted together in categories. --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 08:59, October 12, 2018 (UTC)


 * As I said in Slack, I support this for the above reasons. As far as sorted categorisation goes, we can sort the "Elminster Aumar" redirect under "Aumar, Elminster" to maintain family member association, and have the main "Elminster" article sorted under "E". That would mean he appears twice in all or some categories, but I don't think that's a real problem and it's most useful for category browsing. — BadCatMan (talk) 09:52, October 12, 2018 (UTC)
