Hi All

Hopefully a quick and simple question.

What do the people referred to as Mintarns actually look like ? Is there a culture/society in our own world that I can relate them to ?

Thanks

I had a horribe feeling that might be the case when I read the stuff I could find about them. Oh well.

I was looking for a hook or trait I could use to max out from a RP point of view to really make them stand out in Neverwinter as not being locals.

Couldn't find them in Races of Faerun, fwiw.

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.

the tethyrans have dusky hue skin tones and all hair tones( with brown being most common) and all eye colors.




I do hope that it helps with your question.

the short answer is no, there is no rw ethnic culture to relate them to.


the long answer is in this post and my post above.
