Character Themes: Against the Matriarchs[]
- By Erik Scott de Bie, illustrated by Milivoj Ceran and Hector Ortiz. p. 2-8
Being a male in a matriarchal society isn’t that bad. Just ask the bloodthirsty champions of Melee-Magthere, the powerful Sorcere adepts, the elder sons of the drow houses, and the wily mercenaries of the Bregan D’aerthe.
D&D Outsider: Driders on the Storm[]
- By Jared von Hindman, illustrated by Jared von Hindman. p. 9
You definitely don’t want to wake up and find one of these critters in your sleeping bag.
Spin a Yarn: Jantharl's Surprising Journey[]
- By Ed Greenwood, illustrated by Eva Wilderman. p. 19-51
Each year at Gen Con, Ed Greenwood, father of the Forgotten Realms, joins fans in throwing together a hilarious (and often ribald) tale, which is woven into a short story after the show. This is one such story. [citation template]
Character Themes: Scourges of Lolth[]
- By Erik Scott de Bie, illustrated by Kieran Yanner. p. 55-58
You are a female drow, and Menzoberranzan is your oyster. Dare you serve as the voice of Lolth in a powerful drow house, or would you rather sever all ties to the houses and thrive as a widow of Arach-Tinilith?
Character Themes: Fringes of Drow Society[]
- By Doug Hyatt, illustrated by Craig J Spearing. p. 59-64
Given the cutthroat politics and backstabbing in drow society, sometimes it pays to be a lowly slave, an outsider, or a devotee of Vhaeraun or Ghaunadaur. [citation template]
Eye on the Realms: The Six Horned Crowns[]
- By Ed Greenwood, illustrated by Wayne England. p. 72-76
They appear one after another without explanation—orc skulls wearing crowns of gold—and then vanish without a trace. Who were these orcish “kings”? When and where will their crowned skulls appear next? [citation template]
