    Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse Review

    Deemphasized, as I understand it.

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    Printing the page as a PDF via Chrome suggests the Mortuary supplement is overall about 24 pages of material. Obviously not formatted for doing so cleanly, but good enough for an estimate.

    Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse Review

    Two Faction-related Charms (a la Supernatural Gifts from the DMG): Charm of the Dead Truce - makes hostile undead with INT less than or equal to 6 indifferent to you and gives advantage to Persuasion checks to influence them, lasts for 10 days or until you deal damage to an undead creature...

    Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse Review

    It's essentially an expanded Faction overview for the Heralds of Dust (going more in-depth on their philosophy, taboos, and activities), a general location guide to the Mortuary (non-comprehensive, but with four fleshed-out locations and tables for generating different encounters at various...

    Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse Review

    On the subject of Faction benefits, the recent Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary supplement over on Beyond serves as something of an expanded Faction overview for the Dustmen Heralds of Dust and includes a couple of Charms (a la Supernatural Gifts from the DMG) for representing stuff like the Dead...

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    Would've added several pages to a trio of books with already tight page count limitations and wildly imbalance the amount of info available on the Heralds of Dust with that for every other Faction, unless they added a comparable amount for each of those as well. I would love a full-on Factol's...

    Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse Review

    It's not listed as one of the approved settings in the Creator FAQ yet, but there's a huge banner image at the top of the DMsGuild front page saying "Welcome to the Cage! Planescape - Create, Publish, and Play Today!", so I suspect it's been done and they just haven't got everything updated yet...

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    Can't say - haven't looked into the maps stuff too much - but likely, given the timing.

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    I can. It's essentially an expanded Faction overview for the Heralds of Dust (going more in-depth on their philosophy, taboos, and activities), a general location guide to the Mortuary (non-comprehensive, but with four somewhat fleshed-out locations and tables for generating different...

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    They've put out a number of Beyond exclusives since the first Spelljammer Monstrous Compendium (which predated the acquisition of Beyond and was, for a time, available as a free PDF via the main D&D website). In no particular order (and with the caveat that some of these may have been timed...

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    Seems to be only on Beyond, at least for the time being.

    Planescape Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary, on DnDBeyond and a WotC video.

    More in depth info on the Dustmen sorry, Heralds of Dust, their philosophy and activities as a Faction, their headquarters of the Mortuary, and also a statblock for their Factol, the lich Skall. Not quite a chapter from the Factol's Manifesto, but a decent start nonetheless. Need to take some...

    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Catch Up With The D&D Planescape Videos!

    Spelljammer MC was out well in advance of Spelljammer's release, but I don't think the Dragonlance MC was for the Dragonlance release (or at least, it was much closer to it). I'm not reading too much into the proximity to Planescape's street date - wouldn't be surprised for a Planescape MC to...

    Planescape Planescape IS D&D Says Jeremy Crawford

    Integers are whole numbers - both positive and negative, but no fractions/decimals. Real Numbers contain all Integers (positive and negative) and also include fractions/decimals. So the set of Real Numbers is larger.

    D&D 5E (2014) WOTC Possibly Removing "Druids" for Religious/Cultural Sensitivity Reasons

    For the purposes of cultural sensitivity, Dungeons & Dragons will no longer be using words or grammar appropriated/derived from non-English languages. Here is the 2024 ruleset in full, free for everyone to use:

    Planescape Planescape IS D&D Says Jeremy Crawford

    Same way the infinite set of Integers is smaller than the equally infinite set of Real numbers. Something can be infinite and still not contain everything that it conceivably could contain.

    Planescape The Art of Planescape WotC video.

    Not surprising, given the both their history within the setting and the '24 rules restoring multiple fiendish ancestry options. Also, Rhys. Without at least implicitly restoring old-school tiefling appearance variety, her design would either have to change drastically to match a more modern...

    Planescape Another flip thru from NewbieDM with more text content.

    Sounds like one of the old gag Factions/Sects from Mimir.net or a Dragon magazine article - secretly founded by the Guild of Bakers and Confectionaries, no doubt... So basically Star Trek Bones McCoy Transporter-phobia applied to portals... I actually like that one, though easy to see why they...

    Planescape Another flip thru from NewbieDM with more text content.

    So we have at least six minor Factions: The Incanterium (as expected) - an ancient, previously defunct Faction based out of the Tower Sorcerous The Ring-Givers - a classic Planescape Sect The Free League - one of the classic "Factions", though they would argue otherwise The Coterie of Cakes -...

    Planescape Fixing Planescape

    With the caveat that I don't have access to the new Planescape quite yet (pre-ordered, but not early access pre-ordered), the Fated aren't Sigil's IRS, they're old-school tax collectors. It's a small, but important difference. They're not impersonal bureaucrats you routinely send a packet of...
