    Some Vestiges listed in 3e were Ashardalon (a really powerful Red Dragon), Astaroth, Acererak (the Tomb of Horrors Lich), Kas (the vampire rival of Vecna), Gaia, Geryon, Karsus, Primus (or at least a remnant of a previous top Modron) and Teneborous (the identity Orcus assumed after he was...

    Well they haven't brought back the Rage Mage yet... Might need some more specific Barbarian things because of Rage preventing spellcasting and concentration

    Dungeons & Dragons Playtests Four New Mystic-Themed Subclasses

    I don't think cleric spells match the concept of a spellcasting subclass for the 2024 monk. I certainly see them throwing around Chromatic Orb more than they would with Bless

    Dungeons & Dragons Playtests Four New Mystic-Themed Subclasses

    The Mystic Monk seems really basic as a subclass, it's just like the Eldritch Knight and I'm sure the key to that is finding the right can trip to combo off of. True strike or one of the weapon cantrips because you can use Monk weapons. I guess Thunder Clap might be alright if you get...

    Penguin Random House Announces New D&D Romantasy Book

    Anyways back to the subject of Romantasy, while I thought that Jacqueline Carey's books of the Kushiel's Legacy series which were certainly "spicy" from what I remember when reading them, actually predate the genre. Many including Carey herself don't regard those books as being romantasy...

    There's also the fact that spoken Chinese lacks gender in pronouns, it's even less gendered than English overall, you'll notice that some Chinese people do occasionally make mistakes with gendered pronouns when speaking English.

    Justice Ramin Arman Promoted to Game Design Director of Dungeons & Dragons

    One thing I'm happy for with Justice who was the designer of 5e Planescape, was that he understood the setting quite well and that in the interviews about the product, he showed a distaste of the Harmonium (who's philosophy is authoritarianism) as a faction.

    D&D General Should BG4 be a new story or continue on from BG3's story?

    I think they're just going to be using the Unreal Engine like almost every other game out there. I'm pretty sure a bunch of the announced video games from WotC are using the Unreal Engine.

    Justice Ramin Arman Promoted to Game Design Director of Dungeons & Dragons

    It will always be unsatisfactory for someone regardless of what it's like.

    D&D General Should BG4 be a new story or continue on from BG3's story?

    Dungeons & Dragons: Warlock Video Game Announced by Invoke Studios

    Anyways it sounds like it's a 3rd person action game/shooter that's probably using the Unreal Game Engine. There's probably build options like Hexblade or just using Eldritch Blast. Maybe Patron is a choice and possibly one that's plot relevant.

    I actually do like their song 46 & 2 that they used for the trailer, but I didn't like how the song was cut up for the trailer.
