I have old edition Faith and Avatar but would integrate more information from other books if more have information about Moander. Well, F&A is the best you can get, though his last rampage (or rather that of his avatar) is described in the novel Azure Bonds, where some cultists bring the avatar back and the heroes have to stop it. BTW, keep F&A close to your chest, with its two companion books, this rates amongst the best FR lore that there is. |
| #3lord_karsusApr 21, 2009 12:30:22 | -Most information about Moander stems from Faiths and Avatars, but there are scattered mentions of him in Demihuman Deities, the Heroes Lorebook (which basically sums up information from the Finder's Stone trilogy), and the Villain's Lorebook. |
| #4faraerApr 21, 2009 14:58:16 | Moander's remnant in the Darkwatch is discussed in Volo's Guide to the Dalelands pp. 97–8; Cormanthyr pp. 96–7; Power of Faerûn pp. 117–18. |
| #5lord_karsusMay 20, 2009 23:53:14 | -Lost Empires of Faerûn also has divine information for Moander, I believe. |
| #6JudgeDookieMay 21, 2009 17:51:23 | Are we resurrecting Moander again? Damn! We're so 3e! ![]() |
| #7lord_karsusMay 21, 2009 18:04:11 | -Moander really got the short end of the stick. Out of the various deities who were arbitrarily resurrected (Bane and Torm, among others), Moander didn't get nothing. The portfolios he had still exist out there, in that Finder Wyvernspur didn't take those specifically, but rather, altered them. |
| #8JudgeDookieMay 21, 2009 18:36:06 | And? How does that impress me? ![]() |
| #9StiggerMay 21, 2009 18:36:52 | Moander was a god I wish they had just forgotten from Netheril... |
| #10lord_karsusMay 21, 2009 21:12:54 | And? -It's not. Making idle banter. |
| #11redglacierMay 22, 2009 12:15:41 | Moander was a god I wish they had just forgotten from Netheril... If it makes you feel better, he's really, really dead in my homebrew (in contrast to his kinda dead status in 3e). Talona absorbed its portfolio, and she proved resilient enough to not be corrupted by his influence (though due to the way deific mergers worked in the years following the Spellplague, she gained some of his "better" personality traits). (She's still has the poison portfolio, too. As soon as Zehir showed up in the realms, she and Bhaal killed him and took his stuff.:D) To get back to the OP, yeah, there's really not that much lore about Moander out there... |
| #12JudgeDookieMay 24, 2009 2:54:59 | -It's not. Making idle banter. Thanks, man. I was so tired of searching long and hard for an answer there. ;) RedGlacier - always thought that the majority of the portfolio should go to the god of the dead. But, as personality has settled in with Kelevmore, it doesn't seem to be the best place for it. |

| #14JudgeDookieMay 27, 2009 18:26:53 | -I never thought of that, but it all does match, to a degree. I'm sure you would see it easier if you had come in with 2e and had Myrkul as god of the dead--it was a perfect fit. As I stated, it doesn't fit now with Kelevmore. |
| #15lord_karsusMay 27, 2009 22:24:43 | -Yeah. Myrkul was a much more...greasy death deity. |
| #16StiggerMay 28, 2009 7:18:19 | Icky more like it... |
