08-27-05, 10:52 PM Hello everyone :)

I'm on my way to the Forgotten Realms board from another area, so I'll be around the boards learning the ropes for the next while.

*dusts off old D&D books* ;)

Well met,

I'm the resident smart censored, loud mouth, PIA, etc, as well as one of the sages of lore. :) Ask around, the FR board members can tell you how much I'm a PIA. :P

08-27-05, 11:31 PM Wow, we must be hard on the Wizos, isn't this like the 2nd new one in just a few months time? :D ;)

I can attest to this.
Kuje is a PIA. ;)
Along with being a master of FR lore.

Welcome to the FR boards WizO_Lyoness. :D

For the most part, we are all a bunch of well mannered deviants.
We may get into heated discussions from time to time, but its usually pretty tame (Flame retardant suits or rings of Energy Resistance(fire) rarely needed).

Welcome Lyoness :clap: :tiphat:

08-27-05, 11:46 PM Greetings and welcome, WizO Lyoness. As the others have said, we're a pretty tame, harmless bunch - novel discussions are about the only thing I've ever seen locked on these boards. Otherwise the worst you get is heated arguments (usually over Mystra, her Chosen, Cyric, Drizzt, or the 3e cosmology [if you don't know who or what those are yet, you can bet on figuring it out soon ;) ]), but even those rarely go beyond scathing sarcasm.

And yep, Kuje would be precisely what he described himself as - the local Loremaster, loud mouth, know-it-all, ect. ect. ect.

By contrast, I'm the guy you can count on to chime in every time that a discussion that involves Tolkien's works comes up, usually with fairly long-winded posts, in addition to being the local Paladin fan and a novel fan. :angel:

Once again, welcome to the boards :D .

Something like that. :)

08-28-05, 05:07 AM 'allo 'allo, nice to meet you!
You also oughta dust off all of the FR books you can find, since around here the lore beats the rules 10-0 :) Unless of course you are reading the said books so often, that dust can never settle on them.
BrianCritchley
08-28-05, 05:21 AM well fluff here should beat the rules.
after all, this is the FORGOTTEN REALMS board. not the Dungeons and Dragons. (err in other words FR is all about the fluff, the rules are D&D)
GothicDan
08-28-05, 08:37 AM I'm the self-aggradizing, self-deprecating, cynical, pragmatic reverse anachronism here. Who is friends with Kuje. ;)

Good luck, Lyoness. Put on your soldier hat. Discussions seem to turn into insults here more often than at other sites, such as candlekeep

08-28-05, 04:39 PM What happened to our beloved WizoSister?

08-28-05, 05:35 PM Wow, we must be hard on the Wizos, isn't this like the 2nd new one in just a few months time? :D ;)

Me thinks this is just in the wake of R.A. Salvatore signing an contract for 5 new books ;) Coincidence? I Think not! :P

Welcome WizO_Lyoness! :) Though I must echo Slime Lord's thougths, what of our beloved WizO_sister? :)
Krash
08-28-05, 08:18 PM Howdy. I defer to Kuje in most everything Realms-ish. These Boards are much less time consuming that way. I save myself for the really hard stuff. ;)

08-28-05, 09:29 PM welcome Lyoness,

I'm another of the opinionated PIAs here - I tend to specialize in tech, weapons, and annoying real world comparisions :D at least when I'm not weighing in on anything else that strikes my fancy :P

enjoy the wild ride coming ;)

George,

This made me smile and made me feel all warm inside. It makes me happy to know that some one like you said this about me. :)

08-28-05, 11:59 PM Where is that Timeline? <flees> :D :P

Why, on my PC hard drive WarlockCo. And Eric's and Ed's too. Wading through "Races of Faerūn" at the moment, but we are 110 pages of 10-point text and 53 pages of Endnotes. It's a thing of beauty. :D

08-29-05, 10:40 PM Greetings, I don't show up as often on these boards. Though it seems that I'll be more active around here for a while than I have in a while.

I won't try and describe myself or anyone else so any description of me that you'll get will come from either experience or other people.

Welcome to the board, I'm the resident advocate of all things planar or FR by way of Planescape. I also have this tendency to carpet bomb anything related to the 3e FR cosmology.

And we're friendly PIAs, trust us.

09-02-05, 07:13 PM Welcome WizO_Lyoness. I've been lurking around the boards for about 3 years, been reading FR novels and sourcebooks for over 15 years (Ugh! Am I that old?), and will defer to Kuje and Co. for detailed recollections because these days I do good remembering my own name. Again, welcome and enjoy the stay.
