Er... I must be missing something; all I'm getting are title pages.  |
Playing in the Realms since the Old Grey Box (1987)... and *still* having fun with material published before 2008, despite the NDA'd lore.
If it's comparable in power with non-magical abilities, it's not magic. |

Thanks, Snowblood! Looks very interesting... Any chance of a write-up on Myth Unnohyr (the treasure city of Keltormir, IIRC)? 
Edit: Mind you, you did say... "More archaic Myth Adventures on the way..."  |

| I just noticed that your writeup switches editions in places. Did you have an edition in mind when you came to your final product? |

stunning....simply stunning. Thanks for all the hard work. This will fit right into my Daggerdale campaign.
BTW - Cyril Lokner, I'm looking forward to the write up on Tachepp. Another overlooked Dagger Dale village for my campaign.!!!!!

I'm working away at it. I'd say I'm about 30% done with Tachepp, which means that I'm still a few months away from completing it.
Here's a bit of a teaser from the history of Tachepp.
As the drow began escalated attacks against Tachepp early in the Year of Forestsfrost (479 DR), the Aer Ascaltia saw their opportunity to strike two enemies with one blow. The human realm of Teshar inhabited the valley between the Twisted Tower and the southern edge of the Border Forest (as the Rystall Wood had become known to the men of Teshar). The Aer Ascaltia sent soldiers into the valley to harass the drow and keep the skirmishes among the fields and homes of the humans. The men of Teshar were convinced that the drow sought to bring their realm to its knees, making slaves of their women and children, and greatly appreciated the aid from their elven allies. Through the summer, the drow pressed north towards their true objective, forcing the Teshar and Tachepp soldiers back to the Tesh River. For a tenday the humans and elves fought side by side along the southern bank of the Tesh River. Finally the dark elves, believing they had the advantage, threw their entire force against the exhausted and outnumbered alliance. The Tachepp forces retreated across the Tesh River and joined up with reinforcements, leaving the Teshar soldiers to be slaughtered. The Tachepp forces brought their true strength to bear and counterattacked. They marched south, attacking the fleeing drow forces all the way back to the Twisted Tower, caring little for what destruction they wrought upon the remains of the human realm of Teshar. While many elves saw the betrayal as an unfortunate event in a war to keep their homeland secure from a great evil , others saw their leaders take an irrevocable step toward darkness. Six elven houses forsook Tachepp that year. Two houses, Snowgold and Winterwood, settled north of the Spiderhaunt Woods where they sought to reconcile their race’s betrayal against the realm of Teshar and drive the drow from that forest. |

Anybody know who or what the Aer Ascaltia are? |

| I was able to find this wonderful PDF penned by Scribe Cyril Lokner on the history of Daggerdale. This is the only mention I can find of this group. Taken from context, the Aer Ascaltia would seem to be a contemporary of the early Eldreth Veluuthra or perhaps an arm of Shevarash's church. I'm wondering if this is strictly homebrew. |

| Thanks, Scribe Krashos. I figured it probably was since my searches have turned up only what I found here and the PDF from above. I wonder if they were further detailed by Scribe Lokner. Canon or homebrew, it matters little to me when it's this good. Know you more than what found, have I? Hmmm? |
