An Avatar Story! Part 1 of 4. "Fallen Idols!"It is "The Time of Troubles." This is the omen Vartan was warned about (see Forgotten Realms (1989) #9). Gods now walk among the mortals of the Forgotten Realms. Magic is out of control, and strange creatures roam the land. This is the tale that rocked the Realms to its very foundation. Things turn upside down for the crew of the Realms Master when the elven god Labelas usurps Vartan, body and soul, and uses the cleric as his earthly avatar. NOTE: The whole story of "The Time of Troubles" is chronicled in the Avatar Trilogy: Shadowdale, Tantras, and Waterdeep, novels written by Richard Awlinson and published by TSR. The affects of this story are still felt in the Forgotten Realms to this day and are explored in the computer games Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn.
