Introduction Art: Amarune Writing by Dante Ezio Cifaldi Amarune's Almanac Volume 6 4 It is I, Volothamp Geddarm, your humble publisher once again here to introduce you to Amarune’s next almanac - a tour of the murky, mucky swamps of the Faerûn. It likely comes as no surprise that I would not wish to find myself in a bog in any but the most necessary situations. My distaste for the humid and oppressive jungles of Chult are evidence to that. One would be forgiven for mistaking a jungle and a swamp, to be sure. Wet, dark, and dank. Jungles however seem to thrive with life while swamps teem with death and decay. I’m told one big difference is simply the amount of water at ground level. Chult feels plenty wet to me, although Amarune did take the time to remind me it was likely the sweat collected in my boots. The fens and bogs of Faerûn are oppressive. The Vast Swamp is… vast. The Evermoors are home to the end of many young adventurer’s careers—trolls, catoblepas, hags... every imaginable horror, carnivorous and pestilent, seems drawn to the gloomy places. Yet, Amarune and Arclath were brave enough to traverse even these regions. So my cap is off to the brave young duo. Last I faced a troll in a dank mere, the Sage of Shadowdale himself simply stood and laughed, leaving me to save both our skins on my own as I desperately fumbled igniting a torch to fend the beast off. Some help would have been appreciated, but alas, I warded off the beast and can claim the rightful title of ‘Savior of the Sage.’ I take every opportunity to remind Elminster of that title, so often his eyes suffer strain from the rolling. My other most notable heroic tale of swamps was when I had used my not-inconsiderable (can’t footnote me this time, El!) magic to transmute my shape into that of a puddle to observe a froghemoth for my Volo’s Guide to Monsters that I’d stumbled upon. Perhaps more accurately, it had stumbled upon me. As I waited for it to pass, a float of bloodbloaters happened upon my form and for the next eight hours I was stuck! Unable to transform back, lest I disturb the bloaters, I simply took count of my situation and the path that had led me to it, determined not to let that experience ever happen again… Because it was truly an experience. I’d asked Amarune if I could include a recount of how it felt, having such things moving through my watery form but in the end, she felt it was… inappropriate for such a book. Nevertheless, swamps are desperate places that seem determined to keep outsiders outside. A guide like this will be essential to the survival of anyone who seeks to brave one. But should fate befall you in spite of this, please remember these are not the words of your honest and humble publisher, who would never willfully lead you astray.

  • Bestiary of the Realms: Volume 2
    Bestiary of the Realms: Volume 2 by Thomas M. Costa and Eric L. Boyd Art by Noëlle Triaureau Editorial assistance from Joe “Warlockco” Weber A NOTE FROM THE AUTHORS Welcome to volume two of the Bestiary of the Realms. As this is our second volume, you’ll find several score new or converted monsters, as well as a few different interpretations of monsters that have already been converted. A word of caution, just as many official 3E and 3.5E monsters did not slavishly follow earlier write-ups of those monsters, neither do the monsters herein. Instead, we did our best to consider all sources, hopefully make full and creative use of the 3.5E rules (including non-core WotC books), and in many cases add a little bit here and there to many of the monsters, even if it was in only adding or updating their Realms lore. A few have even been renamed. One last note, we’ve done our best to include source references for all things where appropriate, except those found in the three core rulebooks or Expanded Psionics Handbook. Until then, Sword High! – Thomas M. Costa and Eric L. Boyd ABOUT THE AUTHORS Thomas M. Costa is a senior analyst with the Government Accountability Office. He has been a contributor to several Wizards of the Coast products including Demihuman Deities and Races of Faerûn, and is the author of several Dragon Magazine and Wizards of the Coast website articles.
