Masters who want to incorporate great heroism
into their campaigns. This is more than simply
a list of good deeds and good traits, for a lowly peasant can do
good deeds or embody good traits, intentionally or accidentally.
The use of the word “valor” in the book title is signifi cant; it
means “courage and boldness,” “the qualities of a hero,” and
“exceptional courage when facing danger.” Compare these means
to the contextual meaning of the word “good;” a thief might be
good at picking a pocket, an assassin good at murder, and a black-
guard good at cowing his enemies, but none of those things are
valorous or heroic. This book is about valorous characters—those
who might be good or in some cases merely neutral, but are
great and heroic in facing down the greatest dangers of Faerûn.
Most valorous characters are good, but a signifi cant fraction of
them are indifferent to good and evil, and a rare few are evil
but recognize that some evils must be challenged (even the mad
Halaster has battled on Mystra’s behalf).
It’s worth noting that if you look at the ratio of good, neutral,
and evil deities in Faerûn, there are a disproportionate number
of good-aligned deities compared to neutral or evil deities. You
see this if you compare the thirty fully described deities in the
F ORGOTTEN R EALMS ® Campaign Setting, or just the greater and
intermediate deities of Faerûn, or all the deities described in
Chapter 5 of that book: Good-aligned deities outnumber those
with a neutral aspect, and they outnumber evil deities as well.
This means there are more good infl uences in the world than
evil or neutral ones (though the evil ones tend to be more overt
and careful in their infl uence). There are more good-aligned
adventurers in Faerûn than neutral or evil ones, not just because
of divine infl uence but because Faerûn calls out for good heroes.
From the earliest version of the setting to the latest incarna-
tion, F ORGOTTEN R EALMS books assume that player characters
are usually good and will sometimes do things just because it’s
the right thing to do, not for a reward. However, it is unfair to
expect the PCs to always behave this way; part of the enjoyment
of playing D&D is seeing your character become more powerful,
and when the rewards are lacking it detracts from the experience.
One of the goals of this book is to provide DMs ways to motivate
valorous characters and reward them in atypical ways.
If you’re a DM, use this book for ideas on how to encourage
your players to play valorous PCs, create valorous adventures for
those PCs, and build a campaign based on heroic deeds. You can
even use this material to guide the behavior of your villains and
villainous organizations, for one of the pinnacles of valor is chal-
lenging your evil opposite with the fate of the world at stake.
If you’re a player, this book presents you with new options
for your characters, whether you want them to have humble
beginnings and aspire to great heroism of be born destined for
greatness and aware of it from the very start. Read this book and
talk to your DM about what he expects from valorous heroes;
this book can help establish common ground so your character
doesn’t stumble in mid-campaign over confl icting perceptions of
what is valorous behavior.
