Elminster's Ecologies Appendix I is a 2nd-edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons accessory for the Forgotten Realms.
As if great wars erupted full-blown and ceased again in an instant's time! As if the places so named had no meaning before or after their enrollment in the savage carnage and waste we call war!
So begin Rolanda Invenweigh's and Tharnn Greenwinter's treatises on the regions surrounding these two famous sites. These individuals were hand-picked by Elminster himself to share everything they know about these two places, revealing tidbits of information about the land itself and its inhabitants today - information that just might save the life of an adventurer or two.
Between these covers are expansion booklets for the Elminster's Ecologies series, containing:
- ecological features of The Battle of Bones region,
- the Hill of Lost Souls region, and
- a complete set of encounter charts
