#1Harn_WinterfellJan 15, 2010 2:04:00 | Most of my FR is in boxes so I can't research this. Was the Starym moonblade ever reclaimed or redeemed? Thank ye kindly. |
#2The_SilverswordJan 15, 2010 13:03:22 | As far as I know not it has not been redeemed, reclaimed perhaps. It has the ability to teleport itself around the Realms to find a suitable weilder, which it then sucks thier soul and moves on, so it could be any where. Theres a good write up of it in Volo's Guide To All Things Magical which can be found in the Free Downloads Section. As far as i know they never really followed up on it, unless it was in a novel or something. |
#3Harn_WinterfellJan 15, 2010 14:36:50 | Excellent! Thank ye kindly good blade of silver. |
#4sfdragonJan 15, 2010 15:46:43 | think that blade has a section in the lost empires of faerun... its still looking for an acceptable wielder .... but beyond that, Silversword is pretty much right, it wasnt followed up on. |
#5green_elven_vampireJan 18, 2010 8:47:39 | Doesn't that Elven Vampire Bladesinger have it? |

#7Nai_CalusJan 18, 2010 20:17:20 | I wouldn't trust that wiki as far as I can throw it. I already made one fix to their page on Corellon because it made me facepalm so hard the sound could be heard in space where sound doesn't even travel, and there's at least one spelling error there still. (They had him listed as Unaligned. READ THE FRCG/PG NOT THE PHB CHRIST.) I'm going to let it languish in suck until I feel up to trying to fix the absolute mess the thing is. >_> |
#8sfdragonJan 18, 2010 20:43:33 | Very much thanks Elaine. so how about the Feywild, do any moonblades exist there?? and what if any moonblade ws say in sigil at the time??? |
#9sfdragonJan 18, 2010 21:18:22 | so if that is true, would they be called FEyblades or starblades now? atleast the ones that exist in the Feywild, since the moonblades that were in evermeet are now likely in the Feywild. btw, Feyblade sounds gay...... by every god and his mother, I wish they never changed the crescent moon symbol.... |
#10Nai_CalusJan 19, 2010 3:12:53 | It does sound rather happy, yes. XP And Corellon doesn't have a mother, which probably explains most of his problems with women(Unless some being created the multiverse and him and the other gods and then went off to do something more interesting and he has abandonment issues I'd imagine that all of Faerun's Moonblades being destroyed would thoroughly annoy/completely crush a certain Moon elf of ill repute... |
#11sfdragonJan 19, 2010 12:49:19 |
more or less than his daughter???? hahahahahaha |
#12sfdragonJan 19, 2010 12:52:27 | quoted from Ed Greenwood's interview section at Loremaster. I asked him about the fate of the blades too.... Unfortunately, that one is heavily NDA'd. Sorry. There are a lot of matters Realmsian I'd love to talk about, but can't - -and, yes, that's one of them. Cool things, moonblades, so lots of writers, designers, DMs, and players want to play with them. www.loremaster.org/vbinterviews.php?do=s... |
#13Elaine_CunninghamJan 19, 2010 14:17:33 | quoted from Ed Greenwood's interview section at Loremaster. I asked him about the fate of the blades too.... Ed is right, as he usually is. It's not a good idea for writers to speculate beyond the published lore; opinions about how things MIGHT go are best left unexpressed. |
#14sfdragonJan 19, 2010 16:20:04 | oh and I forgot to say something, a while back in one of threads somewhere, might of been one of the ask the developers, but Mr. Richard Baker stated that that all permanent magical items created before the plague would still be functional. This I think means all the magical arms and armor that did not use charges, and all Items that had charges were rendered inactive. this I imagine includes that the moonblades would still be active, as I doubt any of them had charges, and if they did that feature would be inactive.... but this is all a graine of salt. on that note Elaine, do you have a new book coming out??? Do love that alarm clock radio apllcation for my I pod touch, lets me play music from Ireland..... |
#15Elaine_CunninghamJan 19, 2010 17:37:47 | on that note Elaine, do you have a new book coming out??? It's usually safe to assume that working writers have several projects in various stages. And yes, I've got a few things in the pipeline and a couple more in development. That's really all I can say at this point. Some writers enjoy giving coy, breathless hints about their OMG SEKRIT PROJEKS!!1!! And maybe some readers like that sort of thing. Imagine an over-caffeinated kender and a taciturn dwarf working on a new mining tunnel. The kender chatters excitedly about what he's going to find when the tunnel is completed and how AWESOME AND WONDERFUL it's going to be; the dwarf just keeps chipping away. The older I get, the more I relate to dwarves. ![]() |
#16sfdragonJan 19, 2010 18:45:23 | and the old saying was Clan and Kin! |
#17Elaine_CunninghamJan 19, 2010 20:58:47 | Aye! ::lifts tankard:: |
#18sfdragonJan 19, 2010 22:26:09 | lifts tankard |
#19Harn_WinterfellJan 20, 2010 0:56:53 | Ah ye dwarves, anything to nip the nose of the elves is it? |
#20sfdragonJan 20, 2010 1:00:35 | tbh, I have more elvish characters than dwarves. but both are loyal to a fault... neither of which have much a head for polotics and I also lost interest in Holy Avengers and Moonblades too. great for npcs, but I wouldnt want one on one of my pcs, have to cary it around or die, no thanks its baggage, sure showtsword weighted baggage, its still baggage. |
#21Harn_WinterfellJan 20, 2010 1:18:14 | Aye, there is more than enough mischief for my players to get into I wouldn't add such a thing to the mix. I was looking at using the Starym Moonblade or Blackmoon as a foe for them. They have come to the attention of the Eldreth Veluuthra, or at least one of the players character has. I am/was planning on using Blackmoon as the leader of the Eldreth Veluuthra. As I giggle with malicious glee at the thought of their expressions should they ever come to realize that one of their foes is none other than....a sword. |
#22The_SilverswordJan 20, 2010 19:24:29 | Doesn't that Elven Vampire Bladesinger have it? I havnt heard about that. It could of happened in one of the novels. Im not a big reader of the novels, I spent most of my money on the sourcebooks. Thats one of my beefs with the new edition, no new sourcebooks!!! I guess if I want more 4e Realms lore i HAVE to read the novels. They really need to put out a gazetter or something, Eventually theyll have after they have so many novels out, theyll have to update the game side of things to reflect changes and the advancing timeline from the novels. But any way the Stayrm Moonblade in the hands of a Vampire Bladesinger sounds like an awesome idea!!!! |
#23ImruphelJan 20, 2010 20:25:12 | (snip) I am/was planning on using Blackmoon as the leader of the Eldreth Veluuthra. As I giggle with malicious glee at the thought of their expressions should they ever come to realize that one of their foes is none other than....a sword. I really like that. I have been planning a campaign that will involve the Eldreth Veluuthra as recurring foes and was thinking about including Moander and the Starym Moonblade as well. I think I will just steal your idea! (snip) That's one of my beefs with the new edition, no new sourcebooks!!! I guess if I want more 4e Realms lore i HAVE to read the novels. (snip) I really wish there was new lore, too. What I have been doing is going back through some of the old stuff, particularly as relates to the elves, and trying to work out what that means today and then trying to craft my own lore that uses the existing lore as a foundation. Some may say that I'm putting in too much effort but this is my way to relax! ;) |

#25The_SilverswordJan 20, 2010 22:53:55 | Agreed! Going through the older stuff and figuring out where this group or that artifact fits in with the 4e Realms can be alot of fun! |
#26ImruphelJan 20, 2010 23:15:32 | Agreed! Going through the older stuff and figuring out where this group or that artifact fits in with the 4e Realms can be alot of fun! Absolutely! I was reading some of Steven Schend's comments at Candlekeep last night where he was talking about the pre-drow dark elves of Miyeritaar (sp?). Anyway, I was thinking about having some drow near Loudwater and I decided to grab these comments and establish an enclave of Malkizid-worshipping drow in the Grey Peaks (away from my books- the mountains southeast-ish of Loudwater) and now I'm thinking about tying them into Hellgate Keep... which also means looking at all the great unique magic items from 2E's Hellgate Keep adventure and thinking about how they would fit into 4E and the post-Spellplague world. Good fun! |
