Huh, that’s kinda fun, I’d been using “brightblade” as a sort of semi-perjorative term for green adventurers in the Realms. Turns out it’s also a dwarven clan name. Of a clan whose members now can't agree on the name origin: battle heroes or forgers of superb, standout swords and axe- and spear-heads? (Me? Both.) Among the Stout Folk, Brightblade dwarves are said to be bold, impetuous, try-new reckless, so "green adventurers" fits.

Excellent! Such strivings are what makes the Realms feel more alive and real for us all. :}

Thanks for sharing your world with us, it’s been a hoot with many more hoots to come 🙂 It's been my deep and abiding pleasure. The Realms has made so many friends among gamers, brought fun to so many, and hosted so many incredible, warm-my-greedy-gamer-heart releases, and I've had a ringside seat for all of that. :}
