Woo-hoo!!! I was the first (and only) bet for Greyhawk!

But you won't be the first or the last Greyhawk fan to be disappointed. :-(

Bane is a Greater God, perhaps an Avatar?

According to a recent Lore You Should Know, since the Second Sundering, Bane, Bhaal, and Myrkul aren't currently "full" deities at the moment; unlike most of the others they elected to be able to continue to affect mortal affairs directly, living as actual entities upon Toril itself instead of the Outer Planes, and are thus somewhere between avatar and deity status. The LYSK episode in question specifically mentions they are active in Baldur's Gate, and that we would likely see them actually be statted up in a future product, which currently looks likely to be in either BG : DtA, or its possible sequel.

The LYSK can be watched at:

Given that they announced four products yesterday, I give even odds Sunday they announce a video game, show or movie.

I only can think of 3, the AP, the Essentials box set, and the Rick and Morty box set. What was the 4th?

The Dungeon Mayhem expansion: the press release had it alongside those other three as a product.

Fire. They're gonna start up the stream and everything will be on fire.

In seriousness, hoping for a Book of the planes thing with more new subclasses and some info on the planes, hopefully including Sigil.
