Well, what I want to say is the Good, Evil, Law, and Chaos are fundamental aspects of existence and an entity’s spiritual anatomy, where doing Lawful things will put more Law in your soul which in turn makes you want to do more Lawful things. The alignments are also “contagious” in a sense...

Not making a system, but OP did mention houserules; I’ve been thinking of some to adapt Fabula Ultima to Ravenloft. So far I have the idea of the Dark Powers being able to spend other Villains’ Ultima points.

Pretty good. The situation descended into madness and chaos, but that par for the course with my group. :)

What, event, being, or group created reality is the biggest unknown. There’s signs of entities living in the layers of the Divine Realm that are too deep for mortals to comprehend, but their identities are subject to theory more than known facts. Nearer entities like celestial paragons and...

New species: Half-dungeon.

Guidelines on tailoring dungeons to their role in the campaign. Is the campaign in a single dungeon? Does it frequently switch between overworld and dungeons? Or is dungeon delving meant for the climaxes of campaign arcs? All of these have different considerations and will need different design...

It depends on what the setting is like in the first place, but if there’s things that I think are cool, then yes, inject it directly into my veins.

I can find those in my fidge!

Gods as tulpas works in a world we’re tulpic beings are around, but if they’re the only ones it feels too “zero to a hundred” to me.

Huh, the tinker gnomes look like what they were trying to do with halflings but significantly less uncanny valley. Definitely yoinking the dream eater.

Thank you. It took a while to get these concepts into a for I liked.

I seem to be more of a fan of weird things treated mundanely than most. A mimic house that all the villagers avoid is one thing, a mimic house that the villagers have entered a symbiotic relationship with is some real “we’re not in Kansas anymore” stuff.

@Levistus's_Leviathan offered a poster leave to revive this thread, and the context implied that it wasn’t limited to that poster. My apologies if I assumed wrongly. 1. The Wind of Dreams 2. Undeath 3. The Divine Mystery

This straddles the line between lore and theory, but it’s just plain weird how things match up: Strahd is noted as the first vampire. The Sunless Citadel is listed in Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons as a place that echoes across many of the worlds derived from the First, implying that it existed...

As someone outside looking in when it comes to Dragonlance, I want to take a questionably educated guess: So we have the Kingpriest. He wants to make a world of pure good. At first this seems like an awesome idea help by the fact that his philosophy of what that means is derived from a god...

I admit that most of the time I pick race completely on a whim. The exception was my Reborn character, who I played like a robot man slowly learning how to have feelings and stuff.

A curated group of “natural” peoples with the rest available as mutants and anomalies.

Yep, some of my favorite horror stories attest to that.

Not usually a fan either, but I can see it working if creatures born from people’s minds are a significant element of the setting. If gods are born from belief, then it stands to reason that enough children believing in monsters under their beds would end up creating these bed-lurking entities.

Haven’t played them, but Runequest and Mythras have a separate combat system for exorcising spirits.
