Does anybody know if F/R will release a book with the detailed specs of NPC such as lord Shade and Ilioam and other powerful arcanis's.
And if no, then why?

would it hurt?

Lords of Darkness has a lot of information about the shades, including some stats.

They generally only fully stat out characters if they are relevant to the info in question... So unless we revisit Shade or delve into matters Netherese, we likely won't see any stats.

Unless one of them were specifically written into an adventure as the BBEG that the adventurers are likely to take on directly, I wouldn't expect to see them statted, and given that WOTC doesn't put out many epic level adventures, I would assume this isn't very likely.

In the end, I'm happier just knowing their "quick" stats, so that no one starts arguing that so and so couldn't have made the staff of wollygompers because he doesn't have craft epic wollygompers as a feat in his stat block. I already have to kind of ignore Khelben and Elminster's stats because I "know" that they have been trained in/participated in Elven High Magic, so its hard to picture them as not having epic level spellcasting.

'Tis a good point. There has been more than one case of stat blocks not matching the text/description about a character... As I recall, the same article that mentioned Alustriel's main squeeze being a skilled dancer had a stat block with no ranks in the dancing skill!
