Misbegotten Realms

The Misbegotten Realms were a place somewhere.

Geography
It was the site of the Verdant Desert, which was formerly known as the Verdant Forest before something Nimrod of Nump, the mage who made his lair there, did.

The realms had some unexplained, and possibly unwanted, connection to Earth, recording several strange and occasionally regrettable references to its popular culture of past decades.

Notable Locations
One of the realms was the Kingdom of Slumdudgeon. Within its borders stood the legendary House of Out, whatever that was.

Notable Inhabitants
The realms were home to such mages as Nimrod of Nump, inventor of spells and magical items and mishaps; Mooncalf the Monocular, who once cast Bigby's interposing eye without another eye handy; and of course the great sage Elkwhisker, who went to Earth and rambled on about all this.

Society
It was a silly place.

Background
The Misbegotten Realms are of course a parody of the Forgotten Realms, presented in a pair of articles for April Fool's issues of Dragon magazine. We're really glad they're not canon, but they're included here for the readers' edification.
