IIRC, Tiamat was created before than Takhisis. So, the real question is, was Takhisis a unique dragon? ;)

In 4e? It's called the First Work, and it was first mentioned in the WotC preview books (IIRC, Worlds & Monsters), and was later mentioned in the first DMG. So, the concept of an "original world" was there since the beginning. The shattering of the world and the creation of the multiverse was...

Yeah, that was stuff that was added later to the 4e lore, just like the Primal Spirits and the Far Realm invasion. IIRC, it's mentioned in one the Dragon articles, that the world got shattered by Tharizdun and that that created different versions of the Prime.

You can reconcile things without being condescending. That's my point.

The thing with Planescape is that is a series of condescending books written to tell DMs they are wrong and that Planescape is the actual truer truth of all truthiness (TM) in D&D. If the books were less condescending, perhaps I wouldn't be complaining here, :LOL:

Nope, but only because Conan is not a WotC-owned character, lol.

I guess the difference is that Bahamut and Tiamat, and perhaps Sardior, are older than the current dragons. They started it all in the First World, while the other great wyrms dragons seems to have originated from the current multiverse.

Well, the artist on Twitter said it was a silver dragon. And the dragon on the cover looks different than the one with ice crystals.

It's a great wyrm silver dragon summoning all his "echo" power from other worlds, it seems.

Now that you mention this, there is an old Polyhedron magazine (from 1e or 2e?) that says that some gold dragons believe Bahamut was originally a gold dragon who "evolved" into platinum dragon god through "sheer goodness".

Sardior is mentioned in the dragonborn UA as the "first creation" of Bahamut and Tiamat in the First World (ie. their son? They have been hinted that Bahamut and Tiamat had a son since 3.x, at least). I guess they are going to reprint that stuff in Fizban's.

This already happened in 5e. Check the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide entry on the dragonborn. This is a huge lol, given that in the 4e campaign guide, they had explicitly said that slavery was illegal according to the laws of High Imaskar...

In my Neverwinter campaign, there is shadowy organization known as the Shadow Mirrors (I stole that name, lol) that is behind nearly all the armor and weapon smiths of the Sword Coast and nearby lands, in some form or another. They either sponsor them directly or by third party, and also control...

I'm reading the first one. Glad to see tge others are still available.

One may think that, but if you search about dragonborn in forums and the like, you'll see mostly fanmade fixes and people complaining about how weak they are. Given that level of complaints, I was expecting the race not to be as popular as it is.

Interesting. Given how weak (mechanically speaking) dragonborn are, I find interesting that they are among the top 5 most played races in the official site...

Floon Blagmar. Canonical human name in FR.

Thanks for the free publicity ;) I also think the Nentir Vale would have benefited from a full setting book. But the Vale has a ton of player's hooks at it is. They may be more local than those of the full settings, but they do exist, nonetheless.

First they should fix the dragonborn. After that, they can focus on making more powerful an already powerful race.

That dragonborn looks like a blue half-dragon without tail... I do miss the traditional looking dragonborn from 4e, but if this means the books are going to show more dragonborn art (something 5e was lacking), then I guess I have to get accustomed to it. Thanks for the review. I do see this...
