Classes in real Forgotten Realms (Common/Restricted)?

Hello from a novice follower of nature, armor, wisdom and strength! I just got into the Forgotten Realms and DnD after watching Honor Among Thieves this year!

Are standard classes common for any talented inhabitant of the Realms? Or are they restricted by Ability (Scores)? Was there a published population statistic?

Using DnD, NPC are limited or unlimited to take even one class in life? I am curious!


Ps. Based on Honor Among Thieves, class features in the Realms' reality are not limited as they are in DnD? (aka Druid's Wild Shape) Explanation please!

A Long Time Out, Back in the Saddle

Unfortunately, due to life circumstances, I was unable to participate in this wiki for a number of years (holy crap it's been half a decade) but I am going to be going back to completing the Age of Humanity page and filling out the historical record where possible. Thanks for everything, y'all.

Hi!

It's nice to be here.

My interest is primarily Cormyr. That's where I hope to contribute.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

After everything, I felt I had to review Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. But, to be honest, I'm not sure I can make a non-biased review of this movie. I don't know how, for one. And I'm an editor, I'm like that Marvel character Karnak who can see the flaw in all things, except, instead of using it to break things, I can, if I may, suggest a possible improvement...?

And after seven years monitoring and documenting its production (and it's not even that old), scouring social media for clues, poring over images, reporting on it, researching connections and developing articles, even finding a leaked script fragment, all just to help get the wiki ready ahead of time and then feeling I'd banked the wiki's reputation on it, I'd made myself a…

A Review of Dracoform Taxonomy

The dragons and their kindred species are among the most innately magical and biologically complex creatures of the Material plane, but their reclusiveness and, in the case of many species, rarity, has prevented any major taxonomic work on the group. This article seeks to rectify that by examining the internal taxonomic relations of the dragonkind. Undead dragons are not treated here, as they are by their nature not independent species at all but non-living things created from the bodies of other species. This article also relies more on environmental, magical, and otherwise biological similarities and affinities than on any supposed lines of evolutionary descent for its organization.

Adventures (an Overview)

This page is still under construction. Certain things are subject to change once the main guidelines have been established.

The Forgotten Realms is riddled with adventures. They vary from the official, grand stories (Elemental Evil, Tyranny of Dragons) that can fill a whole campaign. To large, blockbuster tales (Dead in Thay, Scourge of the Sword Coast) which are ideal for running multiple sessions. Last but not least, the small adventures of which you may never have heard of (Vainglorious, King of the Wolves), that can be used for a single session to mix things up. It can be a daunting task to navigate the Forgotten Realms, and choose the right adventure for your party. This article is created to help you get a better sense of what is avail…

Questions about Driders

A friend recently invited me to a homebrew campaign and told me I'm free to use whatever race I'd like. Me being me, I made a Drider character. Or at least, I've tried to. I've spent a good amount of time searching through google, and I can't find anything that says if Driders meditate (like Drow do), sleep normally, or just don't rest at all. Anyone able to enlighten me or point me towards a good source?

Thanks in advance, Yolo

Yellow musk creeper

So I was recently playing Tomb of Annihilation as a dwarf fighter with my group, and we were rowing towards the giant earthen heart-shaped island that is floating in Chult. As we were rowing, we saw a little bit of land with this flower and a dwarf-looking figure on it. We went up to the island, quickly found out it the dwarf was a zombie, and killed it, but not before the zombie dealt 5 damage to me, reducing me to 30 health.

I didn't really take any concern with this, but as I was preparing to see how far I could hit the zombie's head with my warhammer (to have a little bit of fun), the flower (yellow musk flower) started to move towards me. My character had encountered a living plant before in the campaign, so I just decided to go smack …

Howdy do

Not sure if these get read, but just in case.

Hi, my name is Trey, and I'm an old gamer in New Mexico.

In May 2020 I asked Ed Greenwood via Twitter if he had any information current or historical on the north eastern lands of the 5th edition map of the Sword Coast, and he replied that he would look into it. On June 14th 2020, Ed answered me:

https://twitter.com/TheEdVerse/status/1272287816244920322

https://twitter.com/TheEdVerse/status/1272288771350953984

In two long threads, Ed recounted much of the lore of that area from Dungeon Magazine 170, but he also added and embellished  pieces of information- about the Abbey Mountains and other places. I aspired to add what i could to the wikia using his words as a guide, as i have gained much form usi…

What's up with the Pale Night article?

Salutations gamers, I'm making this blog post as an inquiry of sorts. I noticed quite a while ago that the Pale Night article was in need of some cleanup. Of course, there are many articles on the wiki in need of cleanup, but this one has caught my eye. I was wondering if anyone has any idea of where I or somebody else could find information on Pale Night.

I looked at the Further Reading section of the article and checked out the links. Judging by the lack of citation and information in the article, I'm guessing that she was mentioned offhandedly in Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss or in the books mentioned in Further Reading. That's just a guess though. The amount of uncited information gets me a little sad and my goal is to find sour…

How to adapt Forgotten Realms to the movies

OK, so the first D&D movie didn't do so well, and the rest are just average or below average direct to vid b movies. But D&D is coming back to the big screen, and not alone. Hasbro is making their own cinematic universe, and D&D is one the starting roster, along with Micronaunts, G.I. Joe, and for some strange reason, My Little Pony. (This is going to a very strange universe) Regardless, if you were the screenwriter for the first D&D film, and you are an expert in the lore of Forgotten Realms, what movie could you make out of it, and how would you tweak it to coexist the lore of the other 3 franchises I have listed?

Salutations gamers, today I finished working on the Pollus Windscreamer article! I was reading up on Jangling Hiter and noticed that Pollus Windscreamer didn't have an article.

I think my understanding of Forgotten Realms, and of the concept of fantasy as a whole, is steadily improving and increasing.

I realize more than ever before that any one fantasy role-playing game/rules system, setting, etc. is just one possible intrepretation of fantasy. Other fantasy games, rules systems, settings, etc. may be very different. The same terms may mean very different things in different games, settings, etc.. Different terms in different games, settings, etc. may mean the same thing or something similar.

D&D Podcasts

Hi anyone who may be reading this!

I don't normally share blogs but over the last year I have really gotten into listening to D&D podcasts. I used to drive a lot for a living and cycled through a dozen or so, including Critical Hit, Drunks & Dragons and a few others before stumbling upon Dungeons & Randomness. Even after getting into Critical Role recently (thank you Sirwhiteout!) they are still my hands-down favorite group to listen to!

Right now they're in the middle of a Kickstarter to fund their upcoming setting book. While they have 10 days to go, and are completely funded, their loyal fanbase is doing what they can to keep adding to the stretch goals in the final week-plus of the campaign.

I just want to share this amazingly creative an…

THE BEGINNING

Long Ago, in the towering fortress of the new generation of the Wood Elves, upon a valiant throne of carven oak, sat him. Glamdrin Silverthorn, a Wood Elf of noble background, was the prince, the next king in the line. As the son of the great woodland king, he knew it was his responsibility to keep his respectability, nobility, and to govern his people alongside his father. But now, he was alone. He was the one who would have had to govern his people. But his father was gone.



Just before the death of his father he had decided to abandon his position, and go looking for a new life as an adventurer. His father was angry, and banished him. His father called him back when the Orcs attempted to …

Realmspace Astronomy - The Atmosphere of Coliar

This is part 2 of a 2-post series that started here, as a result of a very interesting discussion with Lhynard and Moviesign about the gravity and composition of Coliar.

Coliar is a gas giant. As a size G spherical air body, it is about the size of Jupiter. How then could it have an Earth-like gravity and even be inhabitable all the way to its core? Jupiter has an enormous mass and an equally enormous gravity. Moreover, it has a very narrow range of altitudes at which the pressure allows for the survival of humanoids. Below that, its crushing pressures mean certain death to all but the sturdiest of xorns.

The easy to tackle question regards Coliar's gravity. From the previous post, one surmises that a G-sized air body would have a surface gr…

Realmspace Astronomy - Gravity of Planets by Composition

This is part 1 of 2-post series that is the result of a very interesting discussion with Lhynard and Moviesign on a realistic way to calculate the gravity of celestial bodies based on their size and elemental composition.

In Spelljammer: AD&D Adventures in Space, it is stated that all celestial bodies have a gravity of 1 "Earth" gravity, regardless of size and composition. What if one wants to do better? Say, only spelljammers have a gravity of 1 g as an effect of the magic of their Spelljamming helms, but planets and other celestial objects are subject to the laws of Physics. How to proceed?

The following is a very basic estimate of how this calculation could be carried out, with the results organized on a table for easy reference to the rea…

As some of you may have noticed, I have been absent from the community for a number of weeks.

Realmspace astronomy - Orbital periods and distances

Lately I haven't been able to contribute to the wiki as often as I'd like. Real life concerns tend to be… distracting sometimes.

But with a bit of free time available, I decided to write up a more detailed analysis of the astronomical properties of Realmspace. As a theoretical physicist specialized in gravitational physics and currently teaching Astronomy, I feel it is quite tempting to try to make some "early-astronomy" sense of the several celestial bodies and their movements in wildspace.

This is a follow-up on a recent discussion with Lhynard about the possible distance of the Color Spray Nebula from the sun. As far as I know, it is not stated in any official sources, but, as in the case of Neptune and Uranus in Earth's crystal sphere, m…

I haven't written one of these things in a long time, but I feel the need to right now (insomnia helps).

I've been living in a bad place for just over seven years now. Because therapy did very little to help my depression caused mostly from living in that situation, I threw myself into work to distract myself from it instead.

Nowadays I run my own gaming club, act as a political commentator, do tech support work at my local library, help to build homes for people on low incomes, and do community outreach for local elderly people. I also moderate the biggest Forgotten Realms community on Facebook (but turned down administering it as there simply isn't enough time in the day).

Latest Developments April 3rd 2016

Just managed to get my grubby little mitts on almost all of the back-issues of Polyhedron magazine save for #9. I had several of them before but now I have access to pretty much every piece of Realmslore held within.

I'm supposed to also be getting a new laptop tomorrow that should actually be capable of running my copy of Sword Coast Legends that I've not been able to play since I got it as a Christmas present. I have started on Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear already however - it's good, if a bit buggy. The new User Interface has some problems and the AI of some enemies and NPCs leaves a lot to be desired but I'm sure that will be sorted in the first couple of rounds of patches.
