Based on Keith's blog, I'd like to see the Greater Dragonmarks reflect what they could do back in 3.5e, if only for story verisimilitude reasons. Misty Step is very different from teleporting across the continent, and I think there's limited room for that (maybe ability to cast a spell as a...
I can't seem to get Hold Back the Dead. Is it because it was that much of a mess?
Just leads to:
But it still shows up in Sources page, just not as claimed/owned by me. Spelljammer Academy doesn't even show up there, and I've missed it every time it was offered, so I feel like this is an...
Unfortunately, that's what happened with Tritons, Grave Domain, and Forge Domain in Mythic Odysseys of Theros. When I play Theros games, I allow Tritons and Reborn in addition to the book's playable spp.
We had a lot of those in 4e with the changes made to them for the World Axis cosmology as well as for fitting into Dark Sun.

Honestly, outside of something like Goliath where the fiction is literally you want to play a GIANT but be balance, I let any PC species choose between Medium or Small. And even with Goliath, if a...
They really haven't. Kithkin have always been the in-universe Halflings of MtG.
Halfling creature type was created to refer to Halflings by their actual species name in the D&D Crossover sets and this had dividends because then they could refer to Hobbits as Halflings in the LotR set without...
Or maybe Dryads - remember that in the 2024 MM they're not exclusively female-presenting, and could very easily represent a playable PC Spp of Treefolk (albeit a younger sapling rather than a full Treant). Honestly, this solves the "tree person PC species" connundrum D&D has had for its entire...
Agreed, but it's an easy mistake to make and pronunciation differs between English dialects, let alone when translating into other languages but wanting to keep their own trademarked terms.
Aasimon was introduced as a term in the TSR era to get the religious fear mongering off D&D's back, just...
