Forgotten Realms (AD&D 2nd Edition)
Toril is the primary inhabited world found within Realmspace on the Prime Material plane. As an incredibly magic-rich world by Prime standards, it's full of portals and magics that enable planar travel. In terms of prime representation in the planes, Toril is probably the most common homeworld.
Its primary continents include Faerûn and Zakhara.
Personalities
The following planar personalities came from Toril:
- Arwyl Swan's Son[1]
- Badurth[2]
- Bancho Rake[3]
- General Braahg[4]
- Eliath[5]
- Lissandra the Gate-seeker[6]
- A clone of Manshoon[7]
- High Chancellor Miguala abd-al Ragarin[8]
- Rking[9]
- Saddam Hasan Ibn Arvalas[10]
- Sythissal[11]
- Toranna the Gray[12]
- Trobriand[10]
Although he often claims to come from Toril, Factol Duke Rowan Darkwood comes from Oerth.
Jemorille the Exile claims to have united the warring kingdoms of Faerûn by giving them a common foe: the Khahan's barbarian horde.[13]
Portals
Many portals on Toril were constructed using a powerful spell called "Worldwalk" and some kind of permanency magic, which makes for permanent keyless gates. This should be impossible for mortals. It's possible on Toril only; the same magic won't work elsewhere.
The following portals are known to link to Toril:
- Between Alfheim (Ysgard) and Evermeet
- Between Arvandor (Arborea) and Evermeet
- Between Undermountain and the Lower Planes
- A window in Harbinger House looking out over Waterdeep.[14]
- The Seafarer's Arch in the Ditch links to sewer pipe from the Underdeep leading into the Trackless Sea[15]
An ancient kingdom called Netheril had plenty of portals, but with the destruction of that empire, most portals and their locations have been lost, if any are still active.
The World Serpent Inn caters to primes from Arabel on Toril, and some claim is actually in Arabel, so its entrances may be portals, or it may exist in both places simultaneously.
