I believe in 4E they were said to be some sort of angel allied with Bahamut but who knows what is and isn't still canon from 4E. Aqaa is definitely shown to be in the Elemental Plane of Air in 5E sources so Djinn makes about as much sense as anything. Though I do think it would be interesting...

Yeah I had to find it through the Youtube video. Here.

Hard agree there. There are several things I don't like about it... the fact that the tattoos just appear for one thing. They're not really tattoos if they're not something someone inked onto your skin. Plus one of them grants Find Traps (at the cost of two ki points!) which remains the most...

Oh wow, first billing! Hope people enjoy busting heads with the Pachydex.

The party looks good (in multiple ways) but their clothes and gear are very... MMO/JRPG coded. I think that's what rubs a lot of people the wrong way. These feel lesss like characters that developed their looks organically and more like avatars someone built to look cool in a computer game

As far as I'm aware, Daggerheart doesn't have an open license and thus any additional content will be relegated to what Darrington Press makes themselves and licenses. I'm sure they'll have success and that having Perkins and Crawford will be a boon, but I'm skeptical anything will truly...

What heritage is the character on the cover? Planetouched/Tiefling?

Unfortunately that's not the case. It's just an oversight in A5E editing. From SRD 5.1

I can't help but feel that's kind of annoying and unhelpful? Not as much as the 'Pathfinder has that' crowd but still. Not everyone is playing a game where A5E content is allowed. And I say this as someone who likes A5E and has an article in the July GPG.

Why does it matter? 5E is a lot bigger and less Grognardly than the community that got so weird about the Warlord in 4E.

If you insist on keeping the Weave, you could always just say that Dark Sun being cut off from the rest of the multiverse means the Weave doesn't reach it and that's why Preserving and Defiling are a thing.

There was also not actually a downside to being a preserver relative to 'regular' D&D. You progressed as normal, defilers just progressed faster.

...More obscure than one of the most famous English authors of the past century whose books have been adapted into blockbuster films and dozens of video games? I'd imagine so!

There are already Dark Sun actual plays.
