Ed remains very active in the Realms both through Wizards of the Coast and fan-created websites like Candlekeep. He first contributed to the Pathfinder Chronicles campaign setting as part of the star-studded design team on the Campaign Setting. At PaizoCon 2009, James Jacobs revealed that Ed would also be working heavily on the Kingmaker adventure path, providing major NPCs and villains.
