Talk:Raxivort

"Originater of xvarts"?
Does Volo's Guide to Monsters really say that Raxivort is the originator of the xvart race, meaning the first xvart and creator of xvarts? This would contradict a number of earlier sources. Not that it would be the first time, but I wanted to ask to be sure. Daranios (talk) 19:55, April 11, 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure which earlier sources you mean. 4e Monster Manual 3 does have different story, but it is completely unrelated to the Realms from what I can tell. In fact, we should probably remove that information from the Xvart article. ~ Lhynard (talk) 21:18, April 11, 2018 (UTC)


 * Ah, now I see the new xvarts origin version in the article. Yes, it contradicts Monster Manual 3, as well as the article in Dragon magazine 64 and the Living Greyhawk Official Listing of Deities - all non-Realms sources. So I guess the information from Volo's Guide should take precedence in both articles, but I think the alternative should be kept in a footnote or something, to be both comprehensive and edition-neutral.

Question about Raxivort
Is this the same Raxivort, who caused the rat infestation in Fogtown in Zelatar, Grazzt's realm? Saya222 (talk) 19:29, April 13, 2018 (UTC)


 * The history bit from Volo's Guide to Monsters (p. 199) mentions that Raxivort did work for Graz'zt as treasurer before stealing from him, but the lore differs a bit from the 3e source (in the Living Greyhawk ebook, he is said to have been his general). I couldn't find any mention of a rat infestation, although that could very well be his thing. Is there a source for that? &mdash; Sirwhiteout (talk) 01:32, April 14, 2018 (UTC)
