Where can I find some D&D 3rd info on this?

06-19-03, 11:25 AM A baelnorn is just an elven lich, albeit a good one. Baelnorns accept lichdom to serve their families, acting as guardians and counsilors. You can find their stats in Monsters of Faerun. As far as I can tell, Larrel is rather unusual for baelnorn and should probably just be called a lich.

They are officially FR creatures, so they can be found in Monsters of Faerūn. But don“t worry, it only has a small section, so you“re not really missing out on anything if you don“t have the book.

The Abominable Darkling“s reaction pretty much sums it up.
