    D&D 4E Angels in 4e: a possible future problem

    Sigil is in the DMG!

    Sigil can very well exist out of a Great Wheel paradygmn, as shown. It's already the case with teh Tree of FR, where a SIgil is too.

    POL Setting: Literacy automatic or no?

    I will not that litteracy % where supriringly different, and often high, in some historical cultures... I am told the Tokugawa Shogunate Japan had anormaly high % of litteracy - and this is Nihongo that we speak of, the language with Kanji of two kjinds and Kana. Also, this is the country of...

    D&D 4E What Kinds of Settings do You Want to See for 4E?

    I know, typo... kept it however all those years ago, for the quirky effect. Ruin, my point was to draw on non-occidental sources more. SImply.

    EGG on 'The Spirit of AD&D'

    Gygax is semi-wrong. We are at default and majority neutral; humanity is apathic, self-concerned and agressive neutral. Dragonlance pegged it well.

    D&D 4E What Kinds of Settings do You Want to See for 4E?

    Perhaps, but it bring a sad bit on D&D.... That D&D is all too often associated with pseudo-european, faux medieval settings. It's always a pseudo europe or somewhat "white" fantasy, with popular 'exotic' locales added, like a faux arabia or japan. D&D NEEDS such alternative settings based on...

    D&D 4E The Blood War in 4E?

    It wasperhaps the problem with Planescapey bits like this, a complaint that I heard a few times... This take the mystery of the planes, making them an exotic backseat, cynical and wordly and all that. All too known.

    D&D 4E Yugoloths in 4E

    I disagree however on the names. The Planescape-created terminology was very nice.

    D&D 4E Yugoloths in 4E

    Well, as I said, this way, the DM can spin his own take on it.

    We need another BG/BG2, Forget the MMORGs!

    For some reasons, I didn't like much BG2.... I prefered ICWD 1-2, and it's less story, more action side perhaps. And NWN 1 which is finaly not too demandign now and the NPC and story, while not as dearing, was cool.

    New FR Dragon Article: The Wailing Dwarf. Reveals some new crunch.

    Heck, adventurers existed in OUR world.... By example, the samurai who became a feudal lord in Siam.

    "Points of Light" setting--to be developed?

    It's always possible someone later coalizes all fluff as a coherent setting.... If at least a fanwork.
