Sounds like Far Realm leaking into the Feywild. Hopefully the psionic goblins are indeed the blues; they had a few fans back in the day.

I find it "interesting" that we are all in on Lost Mines, but not so much DOIP for this book? I hope beyond reason, that not much is reprinted, given it is free on dndbeyond....

We already know that Lost Mines is included in it's entirety, but it looks like Icespire Peak is not based on this write-up. Loat Mines page count versus that of this hardcover is fairly small, too, so most of this is new material for Tier 2 & 3 play.

too bad, there are some good things in DOIP, even with its weaknesses.

That is a very brown goblin.
