Anyone who would like to find out more about the Forgotten Realms, can go to the Wizards of the Coast Site. They have available free Downloads of 2nd Edition information about the Forgotten Realms. The stats are not useful for 3rd edition, but the maps and other info is. Simply go to: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/DnDDownloads_classics.asp
Some of the areas they have include "The North" and "The Savage Frontier". The areas that Erran us using for Roleplay Corner.

Crossposting huh ;) I think this belongs in the D&D forum only but thanks for the useful link! I will also forward this link to my DM :)
