Yep, we see Rand in the glass columns and Moiraine and Aviendha in the three rings in the preview, along with some quick glimpses of what Rand and Moiraine see there. and since the preview didn't seem to show anything else, the episode may just focused on them. Although I wouldn't be upset if we...

I'd still suggest you at least give Season 3 a try, as it's been pretty good so far, and there are lot of book parts showing up now. Not that it's 100% book accurate, but it's hitting the right points and everyone is finally off on their big arcs now (although Episode 1 does do a lot of lifting...

Anyone who gave up on Wheel of Time, I would suggest checking out at least the first episode of Season 3 (the first three episodes of the season were released Thursday). It's taken such a leap of quality that it looks and feels completely different. All three episodes so far this season have...

They really seem to have taken a major step upwards in Season 3, going off these first three episodes. While I was ok with Season 1 (especially after learning what a mess Covid and Mat's actor abruptly leaving caused for the last two episodes), and Season 2 was reasonably good if uneven, these...

I know the conversation has shifted away from the original question, but for those of you who are saying that you can't continue to gain levels in an existing class if you drop below 12 in the primary ability in this situation, what happens if you drop below 12 in the primary ability for all...

It does in the MM Introduction chapter.

Aa long as it retains at least some semblance of an elliptical orbit, it won't crash but will be ripped apart once it passes the Roche Limit. The planet will get a nice set of rings. Granted, a large moon getting to the Roche Limit would cause massive tidal interactions that would not bode well...

Bloodied is used fairly sparingly in the 2025 MM, mostly for swarms, which makes sense as a swarm that's half gone shouldn't be doing as much damage as a full-strength swarm. Beyond that, it's used only in a few specific circumstances - a bloodied troll might have a limb chopped off (which then...

They were in Fizban's, so it's not like they were dropped completely from 5e. Moreover, that book only came out a few years ago and is still available at various bookstores/FLGS I've been to recently. And beyond that, as far as we know, the gem dragons, or at least the amethyst dragons in...

He ended up next to a color pool to the Material Plane, which sucked him in and deposited him three feet to the left of where he started.

Anyone who complains about retconning FR canon doesn't really know much about the setting. WotC has often retconned FR canon. TSR often retconned FR canon. Heck, even Ed Greenwood often retconned FR canon.

Astrologers as well. Although astronomers would probably pretty cool with it, as they can set up and do observations in the area of totality when the wizard is not traveling. And speaking of astrologers, it would make productions of Hair difficult if the wizard is moving through your area... 🎶...

One of the many good things about the Monster Manual Expanded books is not only did @Nixlord give us lots of good variants and updates for D&D monsters, his first books sold so well that he was able to commission some really excellent art for the third one and the reprints of the first two.

For devils and demons, that's been the standard lore since at least 2e when the Blood War was first formulated, and remains so in 5e, where it's been mentioned in several places. The Nine Hells has only nine layers and the Abyss has a much greater number of levels (666 to infinity, depending on...

That's fine. I even have that product. I have a lot of DMs Guild products with updated 3PP monsters that have been mentioned. But this thread is about official updates.

Yeah, of all the boss fights, I'd say this is the toughest, even over the fight with the final boss, probably because it has two consecutive stages, with some tough monsters in the second stage. If you mess up or if they get lucky, you're having to fight both all over again. Bragir did try a...

No, the Planescape set confirms that the guardinals are from Elysium, while the 2025 MM confirms the animal lords are from the Beastlands, which is how it's been since both were introduced in 2e. So they're being kept in their separate boxes (in which the Cat Lord has presumably made himself...

Yeah, the authors of her second novel felt it necessary to give her an internal monologue about how much protection it actually gave even though it looks useless, because of all the remarks from readers after the first one was published. In their defense, there's a good reason for that. Despite...

Everyone (unless you were especially evil or had a deal stating otherwise) starts out as larva in the lower planes. You have to work your way up to manes or lemures. Afterlife goals!

Also, while we have most of the Demon Princes (although it would be nice to see Pazuzu and some of the others get stat blocks), the only Archduke of Hell we have is Zariel. Let's see stats for the others!
