    ...and no, I don't need your money

    I need ideas. I am a scatter brain (read: ADHD) and I want this site to be helpful, useful, and entertaining. What would you guys like to see? What would make you come to the site more? I have no advertisements or income gimmicks, so know that the request is genuine. I have crazy ideas in my head, but they don't always translate to content. What do you guys want to see?

    I would love to see a database of monsters/NPCs created by the community. The description/history/non-mechanical stuff could be listed while the mechanical stuff would be in a *.monster file so you could import into the Monster Builder.

    People could comment and rate the monsters. Ideas could be generated.

    That's a great idea, Eric. I need to wrap up some lingering issues with the Wiki section, but that would be a great place for it. The wiki is functional right now, and can be used, but I need to iron out some minor bugs.

    How about another small village we can add to like the one we did waaaaay back when Loremaster first started.

    I'd like to see the Wiki fixed up. I have been slowly compiling simple lists of NPC names from Ed's Eye on the Realms articles so I thought they could go on the wiki or into some kind of random name generator DMs and players could use to create Realms-sounding names for characters or NPCs.

    I'm also compiling simple lists of book names, cabals and organizations, costers and traders, dragons and monsters, locations and odds and ends from Ed's Realms articles too that might be of some use here.
    Realmslore is a lot like a fractal: the thinner you slice it the more details you get. This is why there are no absolutes in the Realms.

    Matt, you seem to be in the know when it comes to PR and networking. Perhaps a section with articles, interviews, blog posts, and other developments of note related to the 5E announcement.
