I was just wondering if any armies in the Flanaess use elephants and if elephants can be found in the Flanaess.


Thanks

I couldn't find any mention of them.  If they existed, I'd imagine it'd be in the Amedio Jungle or Hephamonaland (sp).

Thanks for the response.  I couldn't find anything in any of the supplements I have.  The closest thing I could find is in the original box set that shows the distribution of materials, with ivory being one of the ones shown.  However, there is no mention if it is elephant ivory or if the nations in those areas use elephants in their armies.

frost giant rides a mammoth into town in on greyhawk adventure. Ivory is a trade good and i would bet there are elephants in the western lands.

As I recall one of the adventure modules set in Hephamonaland back in 1st edition had elephants.

I've never seen elephants listed as part of any armies, but they do exist in the Flaeness. There's an evil halfling listed in the published material, who agreed to work with some other villain if he got an elephant. They got him an elephant... Figurine of Wonderous Power- Marble Elephant. Most armies don't use them though, or only in small numbers, not enough to list in the material. Oh, and the Frost Giants riding Mammoths someone else posted, that was an illusion created by the real villains.

The armies of The Valley of the Mage use elephants.

There are mammoths in the Griffs-Corrusk range (see "Quadripartite" in Dungeon #99).
