Interesting update on the Modron as a PC race.
Planescape confirmed?

Glitchlings = Modrons, right? Like we can all agree on that?

That one free Augury from the Cleric domain feels really weak. I think it would be neat if it recharged whenever you cast a Divination spell.

Edit: Augury is a Ritual Spell, you can ALREADY cast it for free, so what exactly is the point of that feature?!

Those feats feel more like multiclassing, they're pretty complex.

Morton’s are mentioned and the great wheel and planes

Glitchlings = Modrons, right? Like we can all agree on that?

In the video they call them something like a "cousin" to Rogue Modrons, so the parallel is seemingly intentional.

The video says just this

Also pay attention to the changes they made. Is any of y’all feedback reflected?

So does this count as the new rules sneak peak?

It is very suggestive of a new direction with respect to feats.

Glitchlings are a neat idea!

It's a Modron! But a bit Rogue! What a novel idea...

Ope didn’t watch the video

Giants and runes can ties into Norse mythology/Yggdrasil stuff, which canonically exists in Planescape.

That I hadn't noticed. O_O
But yeah, Planar Philosopher fits that perfectly.

True, but after the amount of Giant related stuff in the previous UA, it feels like something more Giant focused than Planescape is in the works...but this also indicates that Sigil is coming.

Last year they doubled up UA for Fizban's, Strixhaven, and Monsters of the Multiverse together, so this is not necessarily for the same product.
