Aventuras: Os Reinos Inexplorados…

20 de janeiro de 2016
NOTÍCIA EXCLUSIVA
SÃO PAULO & TORONTO—O The Ed Greenwood Group e TEGG Brazil fica feliz em anunciar um projeto especial de Forgotten Realms®: guias e aventuras que exploram o inexplorado. A cada ano, Ed Greenwood, o Arquimago em pessoa, vai escrever um guia contando tudo sobre uma parte dos Reinos. Acompanhando esse guia teremos quarto aventuras de RPG. Três delas virão das mentes do nosso Sessorium of Creatives (autores e autoras responsáveis por todos os lançamentos da TEGG no mundo) e a quarta Aventura será uma contribuição dos fãs dos Reinos.
Detalhes sobre como os fãs poderão enviar seus trabalhos para avaliação, informações sobre os guias e aventuras serão apresentados no site www.OnderLibrum.com (em breve também em português). Os guias e as aventuras serão publicadas pelo The Ed Greenwood Group, terão apoio do Onder Broadcasting e estarão disponíveis ao público via programa Dungeon Master’s Guild da Wizards of the Coast e OneBookshelf, sua distribuidora.
A TEGG planeja lançar seu primeiro guia e aventura durante a Gamehole Con (dias 4 a 6 de novembro, 2016, em Madison, Wiscosin, EUA). E as versões em português logo em seguida.
O que Ed tem a dizer sobre os reinos inexplorados…
Os Reinos são bem grandes e, com o passar dos anos, muitos cantos de facetas dessa região mágica foram negligenciados porque o Conhecimento dos Reinos era incapaz de cobrir todos os lugares. E agora vocês têm a chance de descobrir comigo o que há nesses cantinhos esquecidos!
O que Ed tem a dizer sobre os Reinos…
Estou muito feliz que a Wizards of the Coast me deixou abrir os Reinos de uma forma completamente ‘sandbox’ para todos nós, encorajando assim todos que querem criar suas histórias. Agora sim os Reinos se tornaram o mundo compartilhado que eu sempre quis criar há cinquenta anos!
O The Ed Greenwood Group e sua sede em São Paulo, Brasil formam uma empresa transmídia, fundada pelo criador do cenário Forgotten Realms®. Ativa desde o Halloween de 2015 (dia 31 de outubro), ela começou com o lançamento do romance Hellmaw: Seu Mundo Está Perdido (em breve em português!). O ambicioso projeto da empresa engloba romances, contos, aventuras de RPG, áudio, jogos, Artefatos, fantasias e cosplay e até mesmo guloseimas dos 15 cenários novos; cada um adotando um sub-gênero distinto. Ed Greenwood é o líder de seu Sessorium of Creatives nessa jornada de criar e adotar todos os formatos e todas as mídias para suas obras. O futuro pertence aos Creatives!

Announcement - The Adventures of Mirt Continue…

The Office of Ed Greenwood

A n n o u n c e m e n t

The Adventures of Mirt Continue…

 

20th January, 2016

For Immediate Release

TORONTO—The Office of Ed Greenwood is pleased to announce that Ed Greenwood, The Archmage, will be writing a brand new series of linked novellas and adventures featuring Mirt, the very first character in the Forgotten Realms®. This annual two-volume set will be published by The Ed Greenwood Group, supported by Onder Broadcasting and made available to the public via Wizards of the Coast’s Dungeon Master’s Guild program and OneBookshelf, their designated distributor.

 

Greenwood on Mirt

Mirt is a stout, gruff, wheezing old physical wreck of a man, now centuries old. Once, he was an intrepid and very fortunate young adventurer; he and his friend Durnan (later the proprietor of the infamous Yawning Portal in Waterdeep) sought their fortunes together in the Sword Coast North. Striking it rich, they parted ways as Durnan settled down to have a family, and Mirt became Mirt the Merciless, captain of his own mercenary company. He retired from that when his swordarm grew too slow, his body tired of days and nights spent in the saddle, and his brain soured of being swindled by unscrupulous rulers. So he became the soon-infamous Mirt the Moneylender, working his own swindles up and down the Sword Coast, traveling constantly to stay ahead of creditors, rivals, and the local authorities. Until he eventually settled down, became a Lord of Waterdeep, and fell afoul of some hostile magic that kept him imprisoned (but alive) during the Spellplague. Freed some years back, he aided Elminster of Shadowdale in adventures in Cormyr and Waterdeep, but found himself a fish out of water in a much changed Realms. Still ridden by his wanderlust, he decides to become a traveling merchant, wandering the Realms and seeing if his wits and what he knows of ancient and hidden gates (magical portals) could be put to some use, and enjoying a life free of obligations.

But not, as he is to rediscover the hard way, free of adventure…

 

Greenwood on the Realms…

The Realms is a very big place, and over the years many corners and facets of it have been neglected because published Realmslore could only get to so many places and cover so much. This is a chance to discover those neglected corners with me!

I am incredibly grateful to Wizards of the Coast for opening up the sandbox that is the Realms for us all, to encourage everyone who wants to create in the Realms. This is now truly the shared world I hoped it would become fifty years ago!

 

Ed Greenwood, creator of the Forgotten Realms® and a myriad of other worlds, universes, and shared settings, is the New York Times best-selling author of literally thousands of works that have sold over a quarter billion units (250,000,000) in a dazzling array of formats in over 40 languages in more than 120 countries.

As aventuras de Mirt Continuam…

20 de janeiro de 2016

NOTÍCIA EXCLUSIVA
SÃO PAULO & TORONTO—O Escritório de Ed Greenwood fica feliz em anunciar que Ed Greenwood, o Arquimago em pessoa, voltará a escrever uma série de romances e aventuras ligadas com Mirt, o primordial primeiro personagem de Forgotten Realms®. Serão dois volumes anuais publicados pelo programa Dungeon Master’s Guild da Wizards of the Coast e OneBookshelf, seu distribuidor oficial.
O que Ed tem a dizer sobre Mirt
Mirt é um velhote encorpado, rude, de nariz assobiante, e agora ele tem centenas de anos. Ele já foi um jovem aventureiro, sortudo e intrépido; ele e seu amigo Durnan (que mais tarde se tornou o proprietário do infame Portal Bocejante em Águas Profundas) conseguiram suas fortunas juntos, no Norte da Costa da Espada. Logo após terem ficado ricos, os dois se separaram e Durnan decidiu construir uma família, e Mirt… Bem, Mirt virou o Mirt, o Impiedoso, capitão de sua própria companhia de mercenários.
Ele desistiu dessa vida quando seu braço da espada ficou lento demais, seu corpo cansado demais dos dias e noites passados na sela de um cavalo, e quando seu cérebro dolorido de tanto lidar com governantes inescrupulosos. Foi aí que ele se tornou Mirt, o Agiota, negociando para cima e para baixo na Costa da Espada, sempre viajando para ficar um passo a frente de seus cobradores, rivais e das autoridades locais. Até que realmente decidiu descansar, e aí estamos falando da época em que ele se tornou um dos Lordes de Águas Profundas, quando acabou algo de uma magia hostil que o manteve aprisionado (mas vivo) durante a Praga Mágica.
Mirt foi libertado há alguns anos e ajudou Elminster do Vale das Sombras em suas aventuras em Cormyr e Águas Profundas, mas ao mesmo tempo ele se sentia um peixe fora d’água com todas as mudanças dos Reinos. Ainda tomado pelo desejo de viajar, ele decidiu tomar um novo rumo, tornando-se um mercador de estrada, para perambular pelos Reinos e ver se sua astúcia (e alguns portais mágicos ocultos antigos) ainda funcionam. Em resumo, Mirt agora quer apreciar uma vida livre de obrigações.
Entretanto, Mirt vai descobrir, como muita gente já o fez, que a vida nunca fica completamente livre de aventuras…
O que Ed tem a dizer sobre os Reinos…
Os Reinos são bem grandes e, com o passar dos anos, muitos cantos de facetas dessa região mágica foram negligenciados porque o Conhecimento dos Reinos era incapaz de cobrir todos os lugares. E agora vocês têm a chance de descobrir comigo o que há nesses cantinhos esquecidos!
Estou muito feliz que a Wizards of the Coast me deixou abrir os Reinos de uma forma completamente ‘sandbox’ para todos nós, encorajando assim todos que querem criar suas histórias. Agora sim os Reinos se tornaram o mundo compartilhado que eu sempre quis criar há cinquenta anos!
Ed Greenwood, criador do cenário Forgotten Realms® e uma infinidade de outros mundos, universos e cenários compartilhados, é o autor best-seller do New York Times e já vendeu um quarto de bilhão de livros (250.000.000) em todos os formatos possíveis em cerca de 40 idiomas em mais de 120 países.

TEGG and Wonderthing Studios to form TEGG Audio & Music

For Immediate Release

TEGG and Wonderthing Studios to form TEGG Audio & Music

 

TORONTO & SPRING HILL, TN—The Ed Greenwood Group (TEGG) and Wonderthing Studios (WTS) are pleased to announce the formation of TEGG Audio & Music. Editorial director Dave Robison of The Roundtable Podcast fame will lead his League of Extraordinary Audiographers, and the TEGG partners and licensees, to expand the TEGG Experience into the worlds of audio entertainment. From word-by-word readings to original plays and multicast works to soundtracks and songs based in the TEGG settings Robison’s new department will add a new and rich dimension to TEGGs offerings.

 

In addition to his years as a podcaster, Dave Robison has trod the boards as a professional actor, led the editorial team for an online magazine, written and produced over 40 hours of audio drama, and narrated audiobooks and short audio fiction. Robison’s proven leadership and mentoring skills, matched with his Wonderthing Studios network, will help build a solid TEGG audio production program bringing both high standards of quality and solid entertainment for fans and TEGG Creatives alike. “I have been an advocate of creative collaboration for years,” says Robison. “Ed Greenwood is a master storyteller and his vision for readers, gamers and his Sessorium of Creatives is inspiring. I’m deeply honored to be a part of the community of creatives who are making it a reality.”

 

The production of audio editions for TEGG novels is exciting but Greenwood is even more excited by the idea of brand new original audio productions and music set in his settings, “This partnership is going to be very cool…In just the few creative chats I’ve had with Dave and his delightful wife Teri I think the fans are going to be blown away by what the Robisons are planning to do for them.” Likewise Greenwood is pleased that his Creatives get to expand their repertoires, “Many of my novelists are thrilled at the idea of being able to continue their stories in multiple formats; especially audio…they are already forming groups to discuss new adventures that will start as original audio works. It’s like a painter being given a whole new set of colours to paint with and then adding music. This partnership is very exciting.” Robison adds, ““It feels like everything I’ve done these past years has been leading up to this opportunity. I know I’m not alone in my intent to seize it and blaze some new paths into the frontier of collaborative storytelling.”

 

The Ed Greenwood Group, a new transmedia publishing company from the creator of the Forgotten Realms®, launches 31st October, 2015. The first novel, Your World Is Doomed! is a brand-new Ed Greenwood title and the first novel in a new urban fantasy setting called Hellmaw—6 story arcs, 85 novels, more than 150 short works plus games and Artifacts. Next year (2016) will see the launch of a more traditional sword-and-sorcery setting code-named Pony Island Adventures; novels based in the universe created for the board game Folklore: The Affliction and Quickblade Games—TEGG’s role playing and mini game division headed by the redoubtable Steven E. Schend. More settings in more genres will follow over the next ten years—For Wolf & Empire (steampunk), Lost Princesses of Mars (space opera), and In So Deep (sex fantasy), to name only a few.
