You could just have him in the Yawning Portal, notice a small gathering of individuals, walk up and say hello

The characters are talking loud enough for you to say "did you say you were going down...?" and RP from there.

Just making sure everyone knows - Rogue and I talked, and I realized I hadn't done my region stuff. I got a free masterwork chain shirt out of it, so refunded my character the money he spent on his. I also edited a few other parts of my character sheet for readability.

Also - which sort of Elf would be likely the creator of the Duskblade tradition in Faerun? Would it be a Sun Elf creation, a Moon Elf tradition (which makes the most sense to me), or has it been lost within the mists of history?

That would be a moon elf thing, probably in Cormanthor...

Well, just like catholics have a gland for guilt (unless they are a pedophile priest) Sun Elves also have a pretention gland.

"Drow debacle?" The elves don't talk about that to outsiders, not even ones they teach their warrior traditions to. Let's see some Knowledge (history) checks.

Yeah, 18 doesn't cut it. You have no idea about the sun elves' role in the downfall of the drow. Rhoenix, you probably don't either unless you can do much better.

You don't have to make a new character - you simply don't have to be as much of an overt ass.

And Rogue, you're right - Kergan lacks Knowledge (History), so I'll edit the comment.

So...what'll happen with the Sun Elf? Did passers-by just pull him out of the tavern never to be seen again, or what?

I don't know how to make this clear in text, but please assume that my character is speaking with the voice and accent of a revivalist preacher. You all know the vaguely-southern accent I am talking about.

You know that Rauri's going to needle the Cleric now, right? Call out to Tempus during her first battle just to hear what he'd have to say after?
