Winninger added, “More than thirty years after the first Forgotten Realms campaign setting was published, we still enjoy creating, and our fans enjoy playing, adventures set in the Realms.” Ray Winninger, executive producer of D&D, said that the Realms, “may be the most fully realized fantasy world ever created.” As of this writing, over 200 novels set in the Realms have been published. That original map lives in a box under Greenwood’s bed to this very day. He said he, “drew the master map page by page, as I needed to know more accurately where ‘distant Sembia’ or ‘far-off Thay’ was, building outwards from the Sword Coast.” He often drew with a Staedler pen because he discovered that he could then put another, blank piece of paper on top of that one and write notes about what foes and treasures might be found in various locales, but still give the first map to the players without spoiling any surprises. And as he explored the Realms through D&D, the map grew. When he discovered D&D, he used Faerun as the setting of his D&D campaign. According to Greenwood, Mirt decided the city was “big enough to stay in, establish himself, and make his fortune/refuse to leave.”īy 1967, to keep track of Mirt’s travels, Greenwood began scrawling maps on 8.5 by 11-inch sheets of paper. Mirt himself landed in a metropolis called Waterdeep. By the next year, Greenwood decided this was taking place on a continent called Faerun. Soon, Greenwood discovered Mirt was moving south along something called the Sword Coast. Once a mercenary known as Mirt the Merciless, he had grown fat and old, and Greenwood said “a typical Mirt tale ended with him fleeing town a bare stride ahead of the authorities, his established rivals, and the new enemies he’d made during the story.” In 1965, inspired by Poul Anderson and Shakespeare, a young Ed Greenwood began penning tales about one Mirt the Moneylender. The creation of the Forgotten Realms stretched back before the creation of D&D. The sale allowed Greenwood to see the Realms brought forth to the world in amazing products for decades, and gave him a long career writing in the setting.
