Out to High Herald. When I first began FRC, I had a big ambition that concerned this particular section of the boards. The ambition was to provide FRC's players with source-oriented information, so that it could be put to use in some shape or form, be it by helping players understand how to develope their character more, or simply by answering questions. You've continued to help me do that (and then some LOL).  Cheers! |

Oh, and I am particularly proud to say...That we...probably trump FRC Wikipedia with regards to information and lore. (ESPECIALLY in the field of accuracy).
I'll go so far as to say, we're probably "Top 3".
Or just NUMBER ONE but I try to be modest, I do.

*gives a round of applause* Yes, this is the first resource I use for FR info. I think the other places aren't allowed to use some of the stuff posted here because it's *chickenwings*, though.
Edited to remove a dirty word.

I think the reason there's more accurate information here is because it's taken directly from copyrighted source material, sometimes even scanned from the books themselves.
Other places could have more accurate information if they were more willing to break copyright law. :-P

Well, I have been gaming and purchasing sourcebooks and adventures for 21 years now. I own a -vast- collection of material, I have easily spent thousands of dollars on game material in that time. If they come after me for the copyright thing, well...I could probably sell my collection and pay the fines. I would also -never- purchase another product from WoTC, or Hazbro, or from any other division or entity owned by said company.
It's not like I am the one scanning entire sourcebooks and uploading them to the net. The PDFs I have, I actually own hard copies of to begin with, except in the most extreme cases of impossible to find rare books.
Thanks for the recognition though, I try hard to amass the most comprehensive lore collections around.

As you can see here: frc.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=silly&action=display&thread=7512&page=3DM Munroe is an Intermediate Deity in the FRC Pantheon, he is followed by DM Ancient, who is a Lesser Deity, and I am below them both as a Demigod. The three of us make up the Triad of Useless Knowledge, as the lower Deity on the totem pole, I don't have the authority to edit their posts. You are a lowly mortal, not even a Quasi-deity, like Mouse, so your posts are free game for me. |

It only causes him to panic and run in fear for 1d6 rounds while one of my level drains cannot be restored by any means while he is in possession of any knowledge that falls within my portfolio (which includes source material). Since giving up that knowledge would mean going against his own portfolio (non-fourth edition source), he tries to avoid being level drained by me at all costs. "Copyright." *watched High Herald panic and run in fear for 1d6 rounds* |

And again, thank you. This is now my favorite picture in the world:  Just one request, please. The Wikipedia article on D&D dragons also contains information about diet. Could that be included too, please? |

Most, if not all of the entries list the diet in the body of the text, but..I can probably do an entry for it.
