He may have created them on Krynn, but they have thrived on toril long before
the first known spelljamming ship appeared. This leads me to conclude that
another god created them on Toril, and perhaps other powers created them else
where. My question now is why would Reorx, the god of dwarves and smithing,
create the minoi? Please keep in mind I am not familiar with the DL stuff.
Anyway, if the minoi are officially krynn natives, but have thrived else
where why do the kender appear to be stuck? As for me I'll stick to my breed
of planar tinker gnomes that have been causing so much trouble lately, and
the gnomes of my world that have decided to start a pants stealling raid
through the local human settlements.
