The Border Kingdoms: A Forgotten Realms Campaign Supplement

Auf die Wunschliste >
Ausgewählte Option:

Welcome to the Border Kingdoms

According to the sage Meriadas of Westgate: “The Border Kingdoms are the most favored destination for adventurers who want to proudly and boldly conquer a realm or establish their own new kingdom. Lords, counts, dukes, kings and emperors rise, proclaim themselves, and are swept away with the speed and regularity of waves crashing upon a shore.”

A legendary “frontier” corner of the Forgotten Realms, the Border Kingdoms are where adventurers come to carve out their own kingdom, flee retribution, hide treasure — or find someone else's treasure.

It is a hodgepodge of tiny realms ruled by kings, grand viziers, imperial overdukes, and all manner of cabals, councils, and self-titled nobles. It's full of ruins, folk who want to stay hidden, long-slumbering secrets, and adventures waiting to happen.

The Border Kingdoms is a valuable resource for Dungeon Masters and players alike. In addition to describing the people and places of the Border Kingdoms, this book contains enough adventure hooks and lore to keep adventuring parties busy for years.

The Border Kingdoms includes:

  • Over 100 pages of lore about the Border Kingdoms
  • A beautiful new map of the Border Kingdoms by Mike Schley
  • 11 new and fully Adventures League legal character backgrounds
  • Dozens of brand new illustrations
  • Brand new campaign hooks
The Lawless Below illustration by Adrian Landeros

The Border Kingdoms is an officially-approved Wizards of the Coast release, meaning that its content is Adventurers League legal and all the lore contained in the book is official Forgotten Realms canon!

Stupid question time. I haven't played D&D since the original AD&D release so I'm not fully caught up on world lore. Where are The Border Kingdoms in relation to The Sword Coast? Just trying to get some perspective and see how feasible it is to send my players there.

Thanks!

Depending on which map you look at, the Border Kingdoms are somewhere around 1,500 miles southeast of Baldur's Gate. But don't let that stop you—if you don't want to send them overland, Faerûn is riddled with magical gates and portals that lead from one place to another.

Why is the Landrise visible in the map of the border kingdoms? According the 2e and 3e maps of the realms, the Landrise should be miles to the east. Is there a reason or is it a mistake?

PS: I already asked this in the discussion thread of the adventure Convergence of Gods and then realized the map in that adventure is from this book.

I have exactly the same question. Having done some further research, I've found references to the "rise of land" that happens at the edge of the Shaar, particularly just beyond the Shaarwall hills, for instance. These references are in Ed Greenwood's articles from Polyhedron magazine in 1995, issues 109 to 111, where he details the Border Kingdoms. My suspicion is that this "rise of land" was conflated with "The Landrise", which, as you mention, is a much larger cliff-complex that divides Shaar from Eastern Shaar, hundreds of miles away.

Looking for a map of Derlusk. It seems this one doesn't have city maps. Does anyone know if a city map of Derlusk already exists? Has anyone drawn their own that they'd be willing to share?

Any chance for some supplemental material with keyed city and town maps. Its one thing this book is sorely missing. I don't want to have to create and map out all the cities as well. Just too much work on top of everything else.

The only thing missing from this excellent book is maps. There's a nice map of the region, but I would like to see is maps of the cities and various locations. I don't mind having to do some maps myself, but mapping every city is beyond the scope I want to cover. Any chance we can see a supplement with a lot of maps?

I'm thinking about using Goodman Games' Into the Borderlands as a starter for a campaign here. But I am loathe to actually buy the print version until there are some city and area map supplements available for the this book. Would buy them in a heartbeat/

The print book is very good quality. Hardback, slightly bigger than official DnD5e but looks very good on my shelf. Nice to read, flat pages no warping, very pleased as this was my first POD from here.

Anyone else have issues using the PDF on the iOS Acrobat app? I have the file on both my iPhone and iPad and the pages on the PDF take an excruciatingly long time to load. It's the only file that I've ever had this issue with. I don't any any similar issues with the file on my laptop.

I absolutely loved this book. It provides a lot of interesting areas, and I am incredibly excited to run an adventure here. I think, if you are a fan of the Realms, this is a great purchase. Although, there are numerous editing mistakes which would be nice if they were corrected.

My one critique is the Border Kingdoms often seem so insular and in fact they are surrounded by things going on. I suggest adding small bits about the surrounding areas such as the Straits of Suldophor and that island in the middle, as well as the Lake of Steam itself and perhaps the Arnrock (see Empires of the Shining Sea), the Firesteap Mountains (Shining South), a bit more about the Shaarwall/Landrise since there are two Landrises it gets confusing. This would probably add a page or so of additional material.

But that is my only critique. It's great to finally see all the Border Kingdom material (from Polyhedron, the WOTC website, and Power of Faerun) in one place with some updating. the new map is great as is the additional material.

Is this a good Utility book/campaign setting to use for campaign I plan to run that has an original Pantheon and Creation lore?

I noticed a small error. On page 11 (pdf) there is the description of the Barony of Blacksaddle and that the town of Telcharn is one of the corners. Looking on the map (pdf) it is Telchard, a "D" instead of an "N".

Like I said minor error.

It's the map that's in error, I think; in prior lore, the town is Telcharn.

But there's a long tradition of mistakes on Forgotten Realms maps. In the 2nd edition days in particular, many maps have at least one label that doesn't match the name in the accompanying book, as though the mapmakers were working from handwritten notes and sometimes mistook one letter from another (I suspect this really was the reason for the discrepancies). Often a later product—usually by Ed Greenwood, who obviously cares a lot about the world's internal logic and consistency—would implicitly acknowledge the error by mentioning both versions as regional variations of the name.

Are there copies of the hardcopy in stock, or would I need to wait for printing and shipping (which is most likely delayed due to C19), or if I order on now would it be shipped immediately?

It's printed on demand, so they don’t keep any books in stock—but printing and shipping isn't delayed as far as I'm aware. It may be slower than usual, but I just received a proof of a DMs Guild title I worked on the other week in under two weeks, so they're definitely shipping books.

This looks really good. I would love to see a Fantasy Grounds conversion of it. Especially in these times of remote playing!

To the Moderator. How much would it cost to post to Australia for the PDF + Softcover, Premium Color Book?

Looks great.

Eingescanntes Buchformat
Diese eBooks wurden durch einen tatsächlichen Scan eines gedruckten Exemplars dieses Buches erstellt; das Ergebnis wurde dann in ein PDF umgewandelt. Jede Seite wurde durch eine Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Software analysiert, um den gedruckten Text zu erkennen. Das Ergebnis des OCR-Vorgangs wurde dann unsichtbar auf den Seiten platziert, damit du den Text durchsuchen kannst. Trotzdem kann es vorkommen, dass Text vor manchen Hintergründen sowie an Handschriften angelehnte Schriftarten nicht von der OCR-Software erkannt wurde - diese Texte können leider nicht durchsucht werden. Ähnliches gilt für einige besonders dicke Bücher, die umgewandelt werden mussten und daher keinen durchsuchbaren Text enthalten. Einige besonders alte und vergriffene Bücher können sogar nur in Form eingescannter Bilder angeboten werden.
