 * The scholars at the FR Wiki encourage you to chug a philter of love or light a love candle as you endure the winter by contributing to our site.
 * This month, Ir'revrykal and Moviesign have been updating the quality of some of the beautiful art from Realms novels.
 * Johnnyriot, advised by Possessed Priest, has been traveling in the far north of the Frozenfar and Delimbiyr Vale, where he carefully avoided making contact with black ice or passing through the Laughing Hollow. He stopped to warm himself at Hammer Hall, where he met a Scalamagdrion and shared his favorite reads, My Adventures in the Realms and A Myth Drannan Amphigory.
 * Regis survived a winter storm of epic proportions and managed to still find time to tell the adventures of everyone's favorite Rashemi berserker and his supposed miniature giant space hamster and friends as they battle against the infernal tides of the Hells from Baldur's Gate to Elturel.
 * After over a year absence, Sturma has returned to detail various strange magical items from the Moonshae Isles, including such oddities as the torque of the Goddess, the cauldron of doom, and the yoke of boar harnessing.

 * There's been big news on Baldur's Gate III. We've got what's known and are getting ready for more.
 * Artemaz resurfaced in the Gateway City of Dihliz, working for the Ministry of Secrets. But, outside the Ivory Palace, he was ambushed by the savage Cult of Ragarra and carried off to their temple in Kadarasto, the City Most Sinister, for sacrifice. Which was just as well; he was going there anyway.
 * Exploring Amruthar and asking too many questions about Zulkir Maligor, Artyom.pavlov ate some bad yarberries at the Gold Dragon Inn and awoke as a slave in the Thayvian gold mines. He was allegedly rescued by a Underdark-dwelling giant catfish, but was still a bit delirious at the time.
 * Fleeing Shou-town yakuza on the Rock of Bral, Lhynard stumbled into the Temple of Odin and ran into space vikings instead. Inspired by legends of the alien Norse gods, he went spelljamming with them to see Yggdrasil's Child, the colossal tree of Garden, and its many moons.

 * We've got movie sign! In a special exclusive, the FRW can share new details of the upcoming D&D movie, titled "The Hexblade". Set across Faerûn at several times over the last century, it follows Raven of Hightower, a long-haired, brooding warrior who wields sword and magic to slay monsters as fate pushes him into a role as protector of a lost princess and involvement in a war against the fanatical, conquering armies of Zhentil Keep. He is aided by Alyssa, a deformed, mask-wearing mage; and Olivan, a gnome bard who uses song to urge folk to throw copper pieces to the hexblade. At one point, they join a dragon-slaying expedition, but instead choose to protect the ageing gold dragon Palarandusk and his eggs. We can also reveal this image of the wizard Malanthius, who will be played by Sylvester McCoy of Doctor Who fame. Share your thoughts here.
 * Congratulations go to Ruf67, who is one of Fandom's Editors of the Month for March 2020, probably for the many, many new articles he contributes.
 * On holiday in Chessenta's Akanul Plains, BadCatMan got schooled in chess by the folk of Oslin. Learning of the Magical Chessmen of Ultham-Urre, he went searching over the Hills of Maerth, hoping to find a philosopher's stone on the way. But what he found was a geriviar upset at having her isolation disturbed and not impressed by his attempts to teach castling.
 * Tracking the sword Alamion up the Sword Coast North, Look-a-troopa ran afoul of poisonous wood woses, was tricked by a space mimic, got entangled with plantmen on Ruathym, and was trapped by Selgryn kobolds at the Ice Lakes, and, worst of all, found a horax crawling on her neck.
 * Exploring Cormyr's Hullack Forest, Moviesign stumbled into the Wyvernstones of Hullack, and was chased out again by a pack of Malarite cultists. Finding books to be less hazardous, he read Auleethaea Cormaeril's diaries and learned of the mysterious Hullack Hawk, as well as Tharim Roaringhorn, Beldarm Truesilver, and other early-13-century nobles. But he also came across a copy of the Black Chronology.
 * And remember: stay or more apart at all times, the same as in a D&D grid. We're all adventuring together, just outside a 5-foot reach.

 * There is of course no new movie news, and the FRW did not get an exclusive. When gnomes are involved, always check the date. ;)
