Moonshae (sourcebook)

"Amid the storm-tossed vastness of the Trackless Sea west of the mainland, a group of rocky islands lies exposed to the full brunt of winter gales. These isles&mdash;the Moonshaes&mdash;are home to some of the hardiest folk of the Forgotten Realms.

Now the Moonshaes&mdash;the setting of the first FORGOTTEN REALMS novel, Darkwalker on Moonshae&mdash;are detailed for your role-playing campaign. The cultures, deities, and locales of the isles are described in AD&D&reg; game terms. This source book includes full-color maps displaying the Moonshaes and surrounding islands, many close-up maps depicting particular regions of the Moonshaes, and all the information you need to establish a campaign on these misty lands with Celtic roots."
