I have Demon Queen's Enclave (P2) and Manual of the Planes

Will be back in about 90 minutes to answer questions; I just need to feed the girls first. I haven't actually read the books yet (just picked them up), but will do my best if anyone is interested in a few tidbits.


Cheers

Monsters, monsters monsters. What monsters are in Demon Web (The DM booklet should have the new ones).
I'd like to know about the Devils in the MotP: The 4 devils, what levels/roles are they, and what the devils are would help (What's a barbed devil? A pain devil? Etc).

Demon Web: Does the adventure feel particularly Paragon-y? Is there RP potential, or is it dungeoncrawl-tastic? How does it hold up vs. the others? Is it as good as Trollhaunt?

MotP: So, do the chapters on Shadowfell/Feywild give you some good foundation to run in them, or is it just some superfluious description but nothing concrete? Are the details good?

Total monster list for those who need to get minis together.

P2:

-From the images released it appears there is at least somewhat of a sci-fi bent. How much of that is there, and how much would you say could be ripped for other usage?

MoTP:

-Could you give a brief synopsis of the Paragon Paths?
-Same with Sigil?
-What is the art like?

Could you explain that? I looked at the images and didn't get any sci fi vibe at all.

The three monsters (illith, grell, forgot the name of the other) in the glass tubes in blue liquid. The semi-bio-organic/robotic armour those two guards seem to have. They just seem sci-fi to me.

I believe those are supposed to be mezzoloth/mezzodemons?

Are the Keepers the same ones I did the ecology for in Dragon? What fluff is there for them?

For the Canoloth, are the yugoloths as a race mentioned?

What is said about Pluton and Carceri (yes it irks me that 'loths were made demons because there was supposedly no place for them, and then two of their main haunts show up as Astral domains). And is there a gehenna pastiche present?

The description of Sigil... does it make any attempt to hold to the 2e/3e metaplot, or does it backtrack in any ways. Ie is Alisohn Nilesia mentioned as Factol of the Mercykillers.

And the most important question of all: is my namesake mentioned as the most awesome person in Sigil? And if so, how do they spell her name?

What are the descriptions of the Shadowfell and the Feywild like? I mean, how long are they, how detailed, are encounters part of them? Maps of Shadowfell cities or other locales?

Thanks!

Most importantly, where did you get it a week and a half early, so that I can do the same?

I'd really like to see the details of the Create Teleportation Circle ritual.

Isle of Dread? How much does it line up with X1? Is it more..err...fantastical? (being in the feywild)

Or is this version of the Isle of Dread something completely different?
