how many dragons would you say is in a “flight” of dragons…….asking for my gameFive or more. And "flight" has to be NOT a family on the move (i.e. can't all be members of the same family). In the Realms, what gets called a "flight" depends on who sees them; unimpressed elves tend to reserve the term for 16 or more.

Holy crap then I think the guys that wrote Rise of Tiamat might be high. Supposed to throw a flight of young red dragons at a party if like 15th level characters with a compliment of warriors…….thanks for the advice! Heh. I've always considered those sort of encounters as reminding players that sometimes the best strategy is to: just RUN and HIDE. ;}

Are there Zoos in the Realms? In Waterdeep maybe?Yes. Private collections (belonging to some nobles or wealthy) known as "Menageries." Viewings usually for a fee, to pay for beasts' food.

Can some “Menageries” contain some “little” monsters that can be shown to private guests ? ;)Oh, yes. Nobles and wannabe nobles show off prized curios/collectibles of all sorts to guests they want to impress. Monsters, monster trophies procured for them by adventurers…many more things (adventure hooks galore!) ;}

Hey Ed, I’m considering to play a oath of the ancient paladin in a campaign, which revolves around the Ten Towns. Any good ideas how this could be connected? Are there green knights there? Green knights would be few and far between, but the Ten Towns is one of those places that outcasts and brigands and fugitives run to…and people looking for them go, as well. So it's possible. Your paladin could have been sent out from Silverymoon for intelligence-gathering.

What is the “current year” in The Ruins of Undermountain? I am planning a big Undermountain delve for my long-suffering players, and am trying to get the timeline straight. The only clues I’ve found are the ages of Durnan’s wife and daughter: 16 and 30, respectively. If I recall correctly, it was 1362 DR.

Apologies. I would be remiss if I did not ask if the same year applied to the followup, The Deep Levels.Yes, the two releases are "the same time" in Realmsdate. So PCs adventuring in one can continue into the other, step back, etc. So is Eric Boyd's superb web enhancement (Wizards website).

I grew up in a rich suburb, all new mansions, vast manicured lawns, topiary of questionable taste, and plenty of room for all the adultery.

Did any of that help in creating Faerun/Forgotten Realms setting? What area in your world would be most similar to where you were raised?
Geographically: nowhere. Intrigue and bedhopping: nobles of Waterdeep and Cormyr. ;}

As I sit down with a glass of wine this evening, I am mused to ask- what are the “famous” vintages and vineyards in the Realms, and how much would they cost? Many thanks GG The best vineyards are in coastal Tethyr, but there are good ones in upcountry Sembia and in Cormyr, too. Nothing famous in the real-world sense; see Aurora's for a primer on bulk vintages that are shipped widely.

First part of Wrath of Klauth went well, party fought off a group of Dragon Cultists who were after a map leading to a secret entrance to Klauth’s lair, fought an Orc clan living at the foot of the lair, and negotiated through a set of traps before discovering a Kobold Cavern.

It’s a shame I’ll have to kill the party next session. Kill them? When you could have them escape with 1 hp each, with the melted remnants of their armor melted to their blackened skin and nothing else left but ashes? And the memories? ;}
