Talk:Charon

Pharaun, there is no River Styx in the Forgotten Realms. The nearest thing we have is the River of Blood as described on page 140 of the Player’s Guide to Faerûn. I like this character and want him included here, but he would have to ride the River of Blood not the River Styx. TheBinder 17:24, April 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm seriously now going to argue with you over this i have Monster Manual II 1st edition on page 28, it specifally says the River Styx just like in Greek Mythology, not only that in Charon's description it even describes whast the river is a how it acts. The only thing i can guess that the River of Blood is a off-shoot that is just as long. Pharuan Undearth 21:53, April 2, 2011 (UTC) [[Image:Styx.png|500px]]


 * The problem with the Monster Manuals is that they're core D&D sources, not Forgotten Realms specific ones. TSR, when they started creating settings for D&D worlds, used many of the same location names. Greyhawk has an Underdark and a Nine Hells and an Abyss. They're not the same as the Realms' Underdark, Nine Hells, and Abyss. Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 22:43, April 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * So you mean to tell me that D&D core books aren't considered true Forgotten Realms cannon. And if this book isn't cannon then it shouldn't be under Sourcebooks btw. Pharuan Undearth 00:03, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's under the sourcebooks because some of the information is relevant to the realms. Creatures with specific references to other settings aren't part of the Realms, but there are more generic creatures in there that may be. Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 00:20, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
