Published D&D reference
D&D setting reference
Published setting reference only. Forgotten Realms material does not establish Everterra geography, history, or faction membership unless explicitly imported.
On this page
This folder collects concise reference notes about established Dungeons & Dragons lore that may help with worldbuilding. It is a reference shelf, not a declaration that any published setting is canon for Arcfall or Idlewood. In particular, Forgotten Realms details below describe Toril and Faerûn only; no mapping to local places, peoples, dates, or history is established here.
Topics
- Toril and Faerûn — the world and its western continent in Forgotten Realms.
- Planes and cosmology — a compact overview from the SRD 5.1 appendix.
- Magic and the Weave — the Realms-specific account of how magic is commonly channeled.
- Published faction references — Harpers, Zhentarim, Lords' Alliance, Emerald Enclave, and Order of the Gauntlet. These are not confirmed campaign factions.
These pages favor durable, high-level facts. Where sources describe different editions or changing eras, the notes identify the setting scope and avoid treating one era as timeless.
