Runepowder and the Modern Gnome

Runepowder and the Modern Gnome was a tome that contained a treatise on the recreation of the mythical runepowder, penned sometime in or before the late 15^th century DR.^[1]

“

I ask my most renervated and prodigiously talented audience to suppose the following: Runepowder as we know of it may no longer exist at our particular space time-environment, but it most absolutely exists within our minds. both singular and collective. And now we've landed upon a fascinating bit of philosophy. Think (ha!) of the following formula: thought + behavior = action. Then why not the following? Thought + idea = action. With our knowledge of runepowder's unique properties, why can we - the reader, myself, anyone with an interest, really, not manifest that which we can imagine?

Contents[]

This extremely wordy tome collected lore and gnomish legends regarding the mythical and deadly explosive substance called runepowder. It also presented a possibility of the lost substance's recreation by the modern gnomish masters. The book also mused on such seemingly random topics as the space-time environment and the thought-behavior-action philosophy.^[1]

History[]

In the Year of Three Ships Sailing, 1492 DR, a copy of Runepowder and the Modern Gnome belonged to Gyldro Angleiron the Smith and the proprietor of Rivington General in the Rivington district of Baldur's Gate.^[1]
