Talk:Rod of Seven Parts

Cloud giant's bargain
The Cloud Giant's Bargain adventure explains that in the PAX West 2016 live play game, a cloud giant named Count Stratovan had claimed the Rod. As far as I can find information on that, the count had managed to get almost all parts of the rod in a single place, in the Realms.

My issue is that I it was a "live event", and I cannot find any written/recorded official information about that anywhere, except in Cloud Giant's Bargain. I'm unsure if that should be considered as canon (as it's linked to Acquisitions Incorporated and was published by WotC), or if the whole event should be dropped altogether...

 * Cloud Giant's Bargain was originally classified as CCC (Convention Created Content). CCC is generally not accepted as canon, as Wizards has little to zero involvement in its creation. This particular module was later "upgraded" from CCC to "Adventurers League legal" status. This is a muddled category full of things that might arguably be canon (of the dubious kind), and some things that are clearly non-canon. I don't think this "upgrade" should have much bearing on the canonicity in this particular case. It's also worth mentioning that Wizards has never published this module and has had no involvement beyond a) approving it as CCC, and b) later approving it as "AL legal". I don't agree with the inclusion of Cloud Giant's Bargain, or its content, on this wiki. Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 23:45, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
