Hello fellow scribes!
Does anyone knows the Starym's sigil crest (or coat of arms)?
Also, in the Ruins Of Myth Drannor boxed set it is stated that they left the city when it was open to non elves and moved to the Thunder Peaks. Is there any hints of old Starym strongholds in these mountains?

The Starym Arms is two falling silver dragons respectant, their house colors are silver and maroon.
I don't have any information on Starym holdings in the Thunder Peaks off the top of my head, though Volo's Guide to All Things Magical states that they also had holdings deep inside Hullack Forest. Those holdings may or may not have been destroyed when much of the remaining family was slain by a vengeful half-elven ranger. |

I had postulated that after breaking with the elves of Cormanthyr, some of the Starym had travelled to a refuge in the Wood of Sharp Teeth.

Where did you find this information, Hoondatha?
I'm asking this because I found a description of the Starym sigil in the Volo's Guide To All Things Magical that do not fit your description: "three stars set in an equilateral triangle around an open maw".
Maybe the Starym have two different sigils? |

Cormanthyr: Empire of the Elves, pg 117. It could be a matter of semantics? A sigil may be different from a coat of arms? I'm just guessing there, though. |

I have intentions in that regard but wanted to check with Ed first re what lore he had on Askavar.
