Interesting (and good to see, in my opinion!) that one of the adventures, For Whom The Void Calls, has NPCs who use Common Sign Language! Good way to incentivise use of that language for PCs
I can't help but feel that this is a bad sign.
Also, I really enjoyed Todd's interviews with people like Perkins and Crawford, especially in regards to the Monster Manual 2024. To see them all gone from WoTC now is... a bit alarming?
Of course, I have little experience inside this industry, so...
I didn't know that about the animal lords!! Very cool!!
And the BÖC song is awesome, I agree!! I love their music, that song is one of my favourites for that reason!!
Looking at this again, I wonder if the Hexblade is being brought back to somehow tie it in/connect it to Ebonbane, a sentient magic sword that is a Darklord of a Domain of Dread!
