High Fantasy

Fables in the Forgotten Realms

Tome64

The Forgotten Realms brought to life! Designed for narrative-rich experiences in the Forgotten Realms setting of Faerun's Sword Coast. While the main focus of the world is Waterdeep, locations throughout the Sword Coast and outer planes are available as well! Including Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter, The Moonsea, The Outerplanes, and more! What was once a single city has now expanded to most of Faerun in this High Fantasy adventure of magic, technology, and secrets to uncover!

Author's Note: Welcome to The Forgotten Realms Step into one of the most iconic and richly storied worlds in Tabletop, The Forgotten Realms! Now expanded and reimagined for deeper exploration and immersive play. Waterdeep: The City of Splendors is your main gateway to the other famous Sword Coast locations like Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter, the Moonsea Region, and even the distant reaches of the Outer Planes. While Waterdeep remains the heart of the experience, its surrounding territories are available for those bold enough to venture beyond the city walls. This adaptation builds upon official Forgotten Realms lore, but introduces both minor and major changes to support a more engaging and open-ended campaign. For example, the characters from Baldur’s Gate 3 are playable, but have been recontextualized to exist in Waterdeep rather than Baldur’s Gate. Content is designed for compatibility with Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, Dungeon of the Mad Mage, and a host of original plot hooks waiting to be uncovered across the city’s alleys, taverns, towers, and catacombs. You’re free to explore at your own pace, shape the world as you see fit, or lose yourself in the layered politics, mysteries, and magic of the world. This is not a replacement for a traditional tabletop game—it’s a love letter to it. Dedicated to anyone who struggles to find a group and is itching to play. If you enjoy what’s inside, consider supporting the official Dungeons & Dragons books. They remain an invaluable resource for players and storytellers alike—and they make excellent collectibles.

Description

The Astral Plane, also known as the Astral Sea, is a boundless silvery void that connects all other planes of existence, serving as a vast expanse for travel, thought, and transcendence. Here, time has no meaning; aging halts, and movement is dictated by will alone. Souls of the dead drift across its infinite expanse toward their final destinations, while travelers and seekers of forbidden truths navigate its shifting currents in search of lost gods, shattered worlds, and divine relics. Though it touches every plane, it belongs to none. Travelers may encounter floating debris—remnants of dead gods, petrified realms, or shattered thoughts solidified into strange terrain. Though mostly still and silent, the Astral Plane teems with danger, from mind flayers and githyanki to psychic storms and planar rifts. Despite its emptiness, it is anything but vacant, holding echoes of every world, every dream, and every forgotten path taken by those who dared step beyond the boundaries of reality.

Appearance

A vast, silver-grey void stretches endlessly in all directions, dotted with floating debris—shards of stone, broken statues, and the corpses of ancient gods. Colorless light reflects off unseen surfaces, casting faint shadows across nothing. The horizon doesn’t exist; everything floats, suspended in thought. Distant flashes pulse like dying stars. Time holds no weight here. Movement comes not from steps, but from will—intent becomes motion, and direction loses all meaning.
