#1 zombiegleemax Jan 31, 2007 7:27:49	Recently, I purchased the official Tasslehoff War of the Lance mapset, and it showed some interesting sites on the Ansalon main map: Locations seemingly tied to each god, such as "the Insect Kingdom of Shinare," amongst many others. What are these places? What's in them? Granted, sometimes the name gives you a clue.....but really, I've never seen them described anywhere. --are they mentioned in some 1e, 2e, or even 3e product that I just don't have? NB
#2 leowar Jan 31, 2007 14:25:53	Are there more Locations how are seemingly tied to othere gods? maybe than I can get a beter view on the map and the gods location.

Alternatively, it may be a place where, say there is a bug people community, (can't remember the names of creatures theres one in MM1 that are large int ants, and one in MM2 which are bees), dedicated as a society to a deity. Or possibly along the lines of a faery glen that people of the old faith visit and still believe in and thus holds a little mystical power.

#6 kipper_snifferdoo_02 Feb 01, 2007 14:11:34	The divine locations come from the Tales of the Lance Poster map from the original Boxed Set. They are listed under "Lands of the Unknown" with this description: "These mystic sites appear to wander the face of Krynn at will. Either the discoverers are untrustworthy or they unknowingly passed through a portal that lead to one of these sites. DMs may determine [a] chance of discovering one such location." The only official material that covered some of these sites are the Odyssey of Gilthanas and I think the War of the Lance geography section may touch on a few of them. Many of them were described unofficially here: http://www.dlnexus.com/fan/rules/15299.aspx There will be a few more unidentified "White Dot/Holy Site" locations on the pre-cataclysm map coming out in the next Map Pouch as well....

#8 kipper_snifferdoo_02 Feb 05, 2007 14:01:57	Thanks, the best guess I can give you at this time is sometime after March. :D
