D&D 5E The October D&D Book is Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons

As revealed by Nerd Immersion by deciphering computer code from D&D Beyond! Which makes my guess earlier this year spot on! UPDATE -- the book now has a description! https://www.enworld.org/threads/fizbans-treasury-the-dragon-book-now-has-a-description.681399/ https://www.enworld.org/threads/my-guess-for-the-other-d-d-book-this-year-draconomicon.680687/ Fizban the Fabulous by Vera...

As revealed by Nerd Immersion by deciphering computer code from D&D Beyond!

Fizban the Fabulous is, of course, the accident-prone, befuddled alter-ego of Dragonlance’s god of good dragons, Paladine, the platinum dragon (Dragonlance’s version of Bahamut).

Which makes my guess earlier this year spot on!

UPDATE -- the book now has a description!

Oh, and, possible spoilers:

Now I'm wondering if we'll see Baba Yaga in the adventure. She's canonically in the Feywild, so it wouldn't be surprising...

Gaming is fun, and fun is for everyone
Precisely what I thought of when I saw the miniature was a thing. I thought it slightly odd that she was holding aa Fey court in Tasha's at the time, but it makes sense with the Baba Yaga connection, and the Feywild Adventure.

I'm honestly surprised Tasha's is in this book, just because she's always been more connected to the Lower Planes, but I'm pleasantly surprised.

I'm doubting Baba Yaga will make a personal appearance, just because having both her and Tasha as NPCs seems like two really big bads in the same book (too many cooks). I'm sure she'll be at least referenced to however.

What was the synopsis of Witchlight again? The one leaked from the back cover? It definitely referenced hags I think.

"Once every eight years, the fantastic Witchlight Carnival touches down on your world, bringing joy to one settlement after the next. It's owners, Mister Witch and Mister Light, know how to put on a good show. But there's more to this magical extravaganza than meets the eye!"

"The carnival is a gateway to a fantastic Feywild domain unlike anything found on the Material Plane. Time has not been kind to this realm, however, and dark days lie ahead unless someone can thwart the dastardly schemes of the Hourglass Coven."

"The Wild Beyond the Witchlight takes adventurers from the Witchlight Carnival to Prismeer, a Feywild domain of delight. This book comes with a poster map that shows the carnival on one side and Prismeer on the other."

For level 1-8. There is some sort of Hag Bandito gang that are harrowing some sort of Fey realm. It is notable that Ellywick Tumblestrum was introduced as a "guest of the Witch Queen" in one of those cosplay videos, and WotC said she would be showing up in D&D products in the future as well.

Tasha might show up as a "guest star" like Mordenkainen in Avernus. That could still leave room for Baba Yaga as the big bad. Heck, Tasha might just be working to usurp her foster mother's power!
 


If the level range from the back cover is actually correct at 1-8, I wonder if this adventure will actually get the two-part treatment, like Tyranny of Dragons, and have a part two announced this weekend that will be for levels 8-12 or 8-15?
