- Wordwranglers - Snok the kobold´s clan. Aside from swiping things no one will miss, the clan has amassed a library of sorts. Out of the books gathered, only 5% are legible to the kobolds. The rest look nice with the illustrations.
- Yusdrayl (Queen) - Queen of the Smokey Snout kobolds.
Places
- Evermeet - Island realm of the Feywild that appears to have returned to Faerun, at least partially.
- Gauntlgrym - Dwarven city long thought lost but now recovered and recolonised, north of Mount Hotenow.
- Helm's Hold - Settlement inland and southeast of Neverwinter that houses the cathedral of Helm
- High Road - Main route North-South along Sword Coast North.
- Luskan - City to the northwest of Neverwinter along the Sword Coast, a dangerous place.
- Oakhurst - Village on the Old Road in the foothills south of Mount Hotenow. It avoided the worst of its eruption due to being in the lee of some crags.
- Old Road - Road between Neverwinter and Gauntlegrym, little used.
- Neverwinter - Jewel of the Sword Coast North.
- Neverwinter Forest -
- Mount Hotenow - Mountain that erupted, so it did. Its activity is said to warm the waters of Neverwinter River and so the whole region.
- Thundertree - Town in Neverwinter Forest completely destroyed by Mount Hotenow´s eruption.
- Waterdeep - City southeast of Neverwinter.
Open Questions
- Was Valdaris´ father killed at the wrong time? Is that how the Raven Queen appealed to him? What about his father's killer? And... did the Raven Queen know that his mother would die?
- Xhaosdemon says: I would say being able to take away his pain and sorrow around the murder of his father is what drew him to her. The other questions are deeply philosophical....is murder somehow cheating the correct time and place of death or is it part of the weave of life and death? Maybe the death of his father's killer proved to her that he can serve her needs, to do what needs to be done sometimes regardless of moral or legal questions. Did she know about the death of his mother and withhold it? I think I will leave that one up to you....gods and goddesses have their own plans and reasons they don't share with their mortal servants.
