Continuing on from the Baldur's Gate saga, the more recently released PoR game (this time from Ubi Soft) also features a few Greyhawk references. This game follows the 3rd ed Dungeons and Dragons rules (loosely, but interestingly none the less). Given that this game is produced by a different company to that of the producers of the Baldur's Gate series (Black Isle / Interplay), many of the same spells can be cast but the effects are visually different.

Additions are always welcome.

Spells that may be cast (with Greyhawk connections) include:
Melf's Acid Arrow (... and that's about it!)

Magical Items of note:
Alaric's Charm (Necklace Con -2, Int +2) (Alaric being one of the guises of Morgorath, the sending of Istus in the Fates of Istus. Alaric was the leader of the Iron Fist Guild of Rel Mord) – Found in the Glim-Gardens of Myth Drannor;
Fist of St. Cuthbert (+7 Ring vs Undead, Protection from Undead +5, Cast Searing Light Level 20) – May be retrieved from the ioun oracle within Nightingale Court;

Wand of Melf's Acid Arrow (for completists) – May be found within the Dwarven Halls and within the Prisons of the Elven Catacombs

NPC's:
Not many, but as with the Baldur's Gate there is a definite Greyhawk influence on the Realms drow. A senior drow warrior is named Greyanna (as was a mercenary drow in service to Eclavdra beneath the Halls of Snurre) and drow members of House Kilsek also lurk about, causing trouble.

Stingers (not Greyhawk related, but worth knowing about ;-):

Crypt Cleanser (Mace +4 against Undead) – Also found beneath the Elven Cellers;
