Forgive my stupidity - if it is. I'm about to start DMing scap, from the magazines, but in the Forgotten Realms. Is there a conversion guide somewhere? Have I missed it in Dungeon?
My main thoughts are to do with deities and subtlety.
1) Deities.
St Cuthbert becomes Helm easily enough, Pelor becomes Lathander even easier. Am wondering about Kord though. CG, physically-oriented, as are both Sune and Lliira, but neither fir the bill very much. My biggest headache is Wee Jas though. Looking through my Realms stuff for a deity interested in magic and death, LN but sinister I drew a blank. The closest I've come is Jergal (LN and sinister, but not really a common deity at all) and Hoar (LN and sinister, but no interest in magic). Any thoughts?
2) Subtlety. I think this may be answered in the way people DM, but my impression of Greyhawk vs Realms (and don't lets open that can too far) is that Greyhawk allows more shades of morality, more subtlety. Not sure how a fairly upright, black-and-white Realms atmosphere is going to cope with some of the moral jiggery-pokery that will happen.
Any thoughts appreciated
