Given the coolness of their pantheon, I can think of far worse fates... Garl FTW!

Added to the original post: The Lords of Waterdeep boardgame appears to be set in the pre-spellplague setting. It uses the old Waterdeep lords instead of the new ones.

* Every period of the realms needs to be supported with sourcebooks and novels. Which seems to be the direction--look at what Mearls said and the recent DDI articles (such as Cormyr).
Thanks for the tip. The Cormyr Royale article provides support for both pre or post-spellplague. I've added this information to the initial post. However, the author's subsequent Cormyr article seems intended for post-spellplague.

Stigger might enjoy being enslaved to a gnome...

Nothing's better for exercising one's shoulder than a round of gnome-tossing.
Nobles in Waterdeep do it all the time. Big bowls filled with wine and an agreeable gnome or two (clothing optional for the gnomes—or I might have just made that up; memory isn't what it used to be).
The Forgotten Realms: It's an ugly baby, but damnit it's our ugly baby.
WotC, please don't wreck the Forgotten Realms a third time in order to introduce the latest version of the D&D rules.
Give us back 3rd Edition's Magic Television concept instead.

Seconded. :D
More sex and gender equality and racial equality shouldn't even be an argument--it should simply be an assumption for any RPG that wants to stay relevant in the 21st century.
I could say anything in D&D is silly though, because it's a silly game and we are silly people.

Not so.
I wrote Swords of State specifically to be era-neutral. Other than a line or two about who can pick up one of theswords without the War Wizards bringing the hammer down on them, there's nothing about the article that suggests a specific time period for use; the information is just as valid (and, I hope, useful) in 1357 as it is in 1479.

I want to see more stories on the Transformed Drow in the near future for RP purposes. More Sharrans they are not about brute strength.

Calm down.
Gnomes don't really exist. Chill. 
Well, still haven't properly edited my photos yet, so this is what we get. People!! The current status of these boards: POP ON!
