Is it just me, or does Bigby look like a gnome?

Let's just say there's a reason I never became a full-time RPG writer. ;)

While I like the Pact Worlds setting, I could see possibly using the Starfinder rules for one's own homebrew setting or for some sci-fi property. Just curious if anyone has used Starfinder in this way, and what that looks like. Thanks in advance.

Agreed. With the push back of Abomination Vaults 5e and the remaster project, it's obvious that Paizo support for 5e is now dead. Abomination Vaults 5e is only still a go since it had previously been announced. Oh well. I can dream.

What I truly was hoping for was more support for 5e. This last year, I saw a 5e conversion for Kingmaker and the upcoming Abomination Vaults 5e. So I guess my answer might be more system-neutral products so fans of other systems can easily use them.

Yeah, Paizo is divorcing their products from the OGL entirely so they aren't reliant on WotC whatsoever. Unfortunately, this means that the drow are going away.

If memory serves right, Margaret Weis Productions (formerly Sovereign Press) had a limited print run on that book. It's the hardest Dragonlance 3e book to find in hardcover. And the most sought-after!

I think an obvious setting for conversion to 5e would be Pathfinder since both Pathfinder and 5e evolved in their respective ways from D&D 3.5. And hey, if you're converting Pathfinder, you might as well convert Starfinder too. :)

If you haven't already, check out Adventures in Rokugan. It uses the 5e rules, though they have their own classes, species, and such. Still, should be able to be adapted for use with regular 5e pretty easily.

One of my favorite races from the 4e era was the deva, from the 4e Player's Handbook 2. Shannon Appelcline's history of the book says the following about them. So yes, we have aasimar back in 5e, which is fine, but they don't have the cool backstory or visuals the deva of 4e had.

Probably the easiest way would be to refer you to the 5e Book of Incarnum. NOTE: Best viewed in Chrome. Other browsers, such as Firefox, do not render it properly. This is a fan conversion of the contents of Magic of Incarnum and has write-ups and art for the races. Three of the races are...

Back in 3.5, there was a race called the illumian which came from Races of Destiny. I want to say I've seen illumians in 4e somewhere, but I can't find the source right off. I want to say there was some change to them. Does anyone know the source? EDIT: Found it! Dragon #392. The premise is...

Azurin, Duskling, Rilkan, and Skarn from Magic of Incarnum! crickets Uh....nothing to see here.... :D

First on my list are the Vanara, from Oriental Adventures 3e. They're adorable. The story of the Monkey King in Chinese mythology make them a great fit. Avariel elves. They date waaaaay back to Dragon Magazine #51 with an article about "The Winged Folk". With all the different types of elves...

Do races from prior editions who aren't in 5e count? Or do you want examples completely outside of D&D as a whole?

I'd like to see the An Phar from GURPS. Mostly because my old 2e character had one as a follower. :D I'd like to see some of the races from Arcana Evolved as well.

According to Mika Hawkins, Sales & eCommerce Assistant at Paizo, the Abomination Vaults 5e book has been pushed back to January 2024. Previously in the thread on March 29th, Aaron Shanks, Director of Marketing, said the following...

I just noticed today that the date has been pushed back to January 2024.

Is it sad that I just want to see a pic of Bigby? :D

That is so adorable! I love how they took the kids' art, wrote some flavor text (inspired by the kids, no less), provided stats, then gave professional art inspired by the kids' art. That's got to be a huge ego boost for the kids. Plus, the kids' names are listed in the art credits! I can't...
