#1 akr71 Feb 10, 2015 7:36:05	Ok, I've pieced together some relevant political and historical facts from browsing the forum and the following links:   http://hackslashmaster.blogspot.ca/2014/08/on-forgotten-realms-in-5th-edition.html http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17850   My party is in the middle of LMOP and is likely to travel to Waterdeep shortly after.  Any tidbits on how Waterdeep is fairing since the Spellplague and the Sundering?  I've managed to get my hands on a used copy of "City of Spendors Waterdeep"   While useful, it only takes me to about 1370-ish.  That pretty much given me free reign to rename shops or get rid of them all-together.   Is is safe to assume that many of the specialty & magic shops would no longer exist? How about re-establishing a Thieves Guild in the city?
