Re: Website Moved to New Host

Thanks for moving the website and upgrading the forums. Last weekend I moved everything over to the new host (well, most everything; I also took the opportunity to do some clean up). Checked that everything seemed to be working and pointed the eilistraee.com domain to the new host (can take up to th...

[quote="Marcelakr":23wn8ppe]I agree with BlackBat, theres no need of an underdark in Al Qadim, since the underdark has a widely different tone and scope.[/quote:23wn8ppe]

Re: The Sundering is actually going to bring back all the go

<t>[quote="Irennan":1valljpb]TBH, I don't think so. The Seldarine cannot prevent their followers from worshipping other deities (unless they are clerics). What would actually start to build the bridge is having the elven pantheon helping Eilistraee in her quest, encouraging their followers to suppor...
