 * Text summary: This should be a good and accurate summary of the article, expressing important information that puts the subject into context within the Forgotten Realms setting, some interesting details about the subject, and important facts that tell the reader why the subject is relevant or important. It should be written in the standard wiki style (past tense and so on). Do not give spoilers or reveal secrets about the subject. References are not required.
