The complete rebuild of the platform is consistent with job-postings I saw about DnDBeyond, they've been doing the rebuild for a while.

The idea of Psionic disciplines back in 2e and carrying over into 3e and beyond has some basis in the Hindu concept of Siddhis With the 8 classical Siddhis as an example: Aṇimā: the ability to reduce one's body to the size of an atom. Mahimā: the ability to expand one's body to an infinitely...

Now that I'm back home and looking at the 2024 DMG, Yggdrasil is described on page 178 and there's a picture of a branch with a portal on the next page. It's a planar pathway like it was in 2e Planescape, along with River Styx, River Oceanus and the Infinite Staircase. Though the lore on...

I'm sure the 2024 DMG mentions Yggdrassil, there is after all a Barbarian subclass that is about Yggdrassil in the PHB

I'm definitely in favour of 3.5e psionics, so having mechanics similar to spellcasting is my preference.

Well I'll go to horny jail for this, but I definitely think that some Great Old Ones Warlocks had the type of encounter you see in Hentai Anime with tentacles and their patron.

I think Psions would typically be Blue with some subclasses like Metamorphs being Blue/Green and Psykinetic being blue/red

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

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

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...

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...

I thought D&D editions were OD&D, 1e, 2e, ME, 3e, 3.5e, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, 11...

I had to go search, but he still has his hair at age 65

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.
