Ahhhh... the legendary ring of RSE resistance!
YES YES YES the floor is yours! (errr unfortunately not )
Hint: What they seek can be found near to where monks pass an initiation test by riding something very large |

I know where to find this. I also know what they found, but as the method I used to find out the where involves Google, and I don't have the source, I cannot make a guess. I will hint that it can be found in some kind of Sourcebook under a "Nightal" entry.
Hope that didn't spoil it for you, Damian? |

That is an excellent hint Kyrene, the sourcebook you mentioned for me is the One Great Basic Start to the wonder that is the Realms

I still remember the day that my copy of the Old Grey Box came in the mail. I managed to pick it up for $9.00 off ebay. I spent an entire weekend just reading the books. |

I got my first copy so I'd know more about what I'd read in the FRA. A month or two later, the 2E boxed set was announced. |

There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist. Terry Pratchett |

Hint #1: They were first united in the Year of the Circling Vulture, but since the events of the Year of Moonfall the four have rarely been seen together.

I have been offering many Faithful Prayers to Selune that someone finds the answer to this question... |

Hmm, I had completely forgotten about this thread. Well, due to Wintermute subtle hint, I managed to find the answer!
They are the 4 rings known as the Moonweb, some Selūnite magic items (Prayer from the Faithful p.63)
I'll be back later with a question (if anyone is still interested) |

Where can one find a Mecanical Scribe? |

That would be correct, sir. I was about to post an alternate question if it went on for much longer. I had given out about all the hints I could... |

Don't worry Wintermute, your last hint was clear enough
First hint: A mechanical scribe is a hand-set type printing press |

it is my guess that people are no longer interested in this thread. I'm still going to try to revive it a little with a new hint
Third hint: The three major centres of worship of the city in which we can find this Mecanical Scribe are dedicated to Gond, Tymora, and Umberlee. |

He doesn't want to get infected by lice, of course. |

As I recall, he had short, spiked hair, not shaved (might be from an older source). I have a guess for the answer, but I have to pass since I had the last question. |

If she didn't, she'd have done much worst than just shave his head (oh, a hint about his race maybe? ) |

This is about a drow from one of Sasvatore's novels, but I don't remember enough to answer this and I don't have the books either. |
