D&D (2024) Anyone else's top choice for new setting Witchlight: Domains of Delight?

[Parmandur]

One thing to mention is that the FR DM's Guide coming up later in the year will have a section on the Moonshaes, which is a region that is very fey-influenced.

And Calimshan, which is very Elemental influenced...

Any adventures or locations from past D&D products you'd like to see as Domains of Delight?

Not from D&D, but it is a Hasbro property...

True, but it's not a Domain of Delight, it's still very much on Toril. Evermeet is a possibility on the other hand, it's part of Toril, but also part of the Feywild & Arborea.

Maybe! Feels more like something they intend to do more with in the future, with all tge Fey politics in the DMG Lore Glossary.

I'll just add that the image of a frog writing on a scroll while sitting on a toadstool that's on the cover of the Domains of Delight supplement is also on the inside title page of The Wild Beyond the Witchlight.

Furthermore, at the end of the Thither section in Witchlight, there is a full page artwork of Yarnspinner the giant, storytelling spider. The caption includes a plug for the Domains of Delight "Feywild supplement".

Lastly, Domains of Delight includes the printable NPC roleplaying cards, the pages of suggested lines for Stagefright, and the Witchlight Story Tracker, all of which are also in the Witchlight appendix.

All of this together makes it feel like Domains of Delight is basically a Witchlight web enhancement.

But it could provide hints if they plan to make more fey-focused products.

Witchlight is too perfect if they want a kid-friendly subfranchise, then it is very possible. They don't need to add too many details when unlocking in DMGuild the 3PPs can add a lot of fresh and new ideas.

And there is space for romantasy stories.

* If fey dragons are canon, why not fey dragonborn?

* Why not to add rules about managing a domain like in Birthright/Cerilia?

I suspect the current Domains of Delight may be a prototype, like the Wayfarer's Guide to Eberron they brought out before the print book. It's brief, and there is lots you could add (like descriptions of a bunch of the Domains) to make it up to a full size print book.

I'm not convinced about the inner planes as a setting book though. Too disjointed without a plot to tie them together. It seems more likely to be Adventure Path material myself. Descriptions of cities like the City of Brass frequently show up in that kind of publication.

 

[Tonguez]

The two Alice in Wonderland modules by Gygax seem likely, or the Hut if Baba Yaga (either the original, the redo, or both?).

Porpherio's Garden from Beyond the Crystal Cave

Porpherio's Garden from Beyond the Crystal Cave

That's in Quests from the Infinite Staircase and has been reimagined as the "Eternal Garden".

Sure, but that is not incompatible with them working non a Domains of Delight Setting.
