I am trying to find any information on Lantan, does anyone know which books actually contain useful information about this region. Preferably 3rd ed but I am willing to look at 2nd ed for background stuff.

Cheers

Jan 27, 2009 3:25:45 There's very little known about Lantan (and they said FR is overdetailed :rolleyes. You'll get the most info in the FRCSs in 1e or 2e. There's some info in the FRCS 3e, as well as Wizards & Rogues Of The Realms and Warriors & Priests Of The Realms. And some stray scraps in various places. Also search out the WotC website for some old 3.0 info about portals.

Once bored and curious, I compiled every piece of canon lore that exists about Lantan. If anyone wants it, I can email it, or even post it here in 2 posts (might not be legal though, ahem).

Other than the FRCS, I don't think so as far as 3e regional books are concerned. Nor any novels if IIRC. A shame really.

Jan 27, 2009 8:32:34 3e had the best map as I recall, though the information was a bit skimpy... though Faiths and Avatars had a little bit on it as well as I recall, though it was indeed a scrap. I seem to recall Demi-Humans of the Realms having a meager scrap as well, as did possibly Prayers from the Faithful... I think. But I don't think it amounted to more than a few paragraphs from all of them, combined, so I'm not sure it would be worth the trouble tracking it all down.
