Quick FR question: Where in the Realms would you say is the “best place” to live if you’re an average commoner? :)Wow. That depends. Privacy? Not a city. Peace, law and order? Beautiful views? Gentle weather, plenty of food? Depending on what "best" is..

…the same can be said for Cormyr, or the Dales. Highdale is nice. Berdusk has its moments. Along the Unicorn Run in the High Forest. Etc.

Thanks for the excellent answers! I was looking for “quality of life”, but I know that’s a nebulous concept. :)Well, if you want bucolic forest living: Unicorn Run. If you want beautiful rural surroundings, the Dales (Deepingdale is the most…

..literate, wealthy, and close to big-city amenities (in Sembia). If you like law and order and good government with a happy populace…

…city with EVERYTHING available from all over the world, then Waterdeep is your place. So, pick your "quality." :}

Is Szass Tam still in command in Thay in the 5E era? I mean officially, of course-he’s been top dog since well before 4E as I recall.He's still brooding from an increasingly uncertain throne out east. Wonder what he is up to…

how is land claimed in FR? im assuming its all claimed by royalty or something; land grants as rewards? purchased? rented?lease?All of the above, depending on where you are geographically. No royalty in Waterdeep; like most cities, the Deep has land deeds.

Wanted to ask since Mearls said they wanted Greyhawk to be, more or less static, yet FR seems polar opposite – every edition feels diffLong before D&D existed, I conceived of the Realms as an imaginary world that was alive. Meaning: the illusion of things happening, change.

This makes sense – worlds are not static; much like the rules of the game, underlying mechanicsYes. If the world feels real, then your adventures MATTER. And so gameplay is more satisfying, and fiction more gratifying; it has meaning.

hey, have you guys ever thought about putting out Aurora’s Whole Realms Catalog again, either as an article or an updated source book?It's been something we've talked about, but i'm not completely happy with the direction a potential magic item expansion might take, yet

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Does Baldur’s Gate have an official 5E map released yet?
