Fjord was a Netherese arcanist and spell inventor who lived during the Shadowed Age.[1]
History[]
Before Fjord developed their first spell, they designed a staff in 3301 NY (−558 DR) that would become know as Fjord's Stave of Sentience. This staff caused plants to grow instantly, though if used incorrectly, could cause plants to become sentient. These plants could become mobile, and would attack those who had previously caused them harm.[2]
Fjord developed three spells during their life. The spells they developed were vacancy in 3327 NY (−532 DR), airy water in 3328 NY (−531 DR), distance distortion in 3340 NY (−519 DR) and finally, animate dead in 3345 NY (−514 DR).[1]

Notes[]
- ↑ The races of the arcanists in the full table (Netheril: Empire of Magic pp. 23–28) are not explicitly referenced, unlike in the NPCs list (Netheril: Empire of Magic p. 106), which states that they are assumed to be human unless said otherwise. However, the text after the "Spells" heading (Netheril: Empire of Magic p. 22) says that the spells are "Netherese spells", and the text following this is from the perspective of the Netherese (humans): "Other spellcasting races dispute many of the claims made by the Netherese regarding who first created what spell", etc. For this reason, the arcanists provided in this list (and mentioned in other sections of the sourcebook) are assumed to be Netherese humans.
