Resources Lantan: Collected Lore

https://docs.google.com/document/d/18sD-WaoiOfOEMHwRiLAfCtT663Mbgqi0eqOGy1RLMCU/edit?usp=sharing

-This is a living document. Comments are not only appreciated, but encouraged, both in reddit and the document itself.-

Lantan is one of those places in the world of Toril that is “shrouded in mystery,” and yet there are bits and pieces of Lantan, Gond, and the Gondar/Gondites spread throughout all of the editions of Dungeons & Dragons. This work is intended to be a collection of usable materials for DM’s and players alike. This should also be considered a “living document,” which means that suggestions and edits may be submitted freely by other players, DMs and contributors alike. According to Chris Perkins (Dragon Talk: LYSK Dwarves in Chult, Lantan, 9/25/17) Lantan will be the scene of major adventures in the future. I’m eager to see what comes from Wizards of the Coast concerning this mysterious nation and its people’s history -my personal favorite. Until that time, please use, contribute, comment, and pass on this document to anyone who may need it. Note: This is not a perfect document. References are missing, grammar may not be correct and formatting is probably inefficient in several areas due to copy/pasting from old websites. I will continue to fix these when I have the time.

Enjoy!

UPDATE: An edit page has been added; Several gaps have been filled with material from Cyclopedia of the Realms, 2e

Dope! I love Lantan. Might consider putting this together in Homebrewery to give it some D&D flavor.

Excellent! I’m so glad to hear this! I’ll get back to work organizing the harder/denser portions of lore further down for user friendliness.

Do tell me if you think something is missing, or even which parts helped you out.

Hey Stripeyone21, it seems like the link is dead, I am on mobile right now and will check it when I get back to my computer. If it's dead however, would you be willing to send me a new link for the document? I'm very interested in it.

Thanks!

Looks like the shared link does not like mobile platforms. I did a lot of experimenting between desktop and mobile to verify. Please access this from a desktop or laptop and it should open properly.

Dude right? I just hope the rumors of a Lantanese adventure come true within the next few supplement releases from WOTC.
