I turned to the Ranger into a support martial, stripping out all the spells (except for a subclass). All of their abilities are tied to their favorite enemies or terrain types, but they gain a lot more of them as they level up. Plus they have the ability to pass on those bonuses to the rest of...

Canonically it's Castellan Keep in NE Karameikos

I guess not many people here have seen the horror of what those children could do. When our paladin turned his back to try to defend the children he died to over a dozen kobald baby rattle shanks. Their parents weren't protecting them they were keeping them in check. Nothing is more terrifying...

According the Vaults of Pandius TSR published through Dalmau Carles Mystara, FR and Dragonlance, though only Dragonlance sold well enough to get significant publications. DL had triple the number of books translated compared to the rest of the settings combined

There was an official q&a back at the beginning of the where the hosts made an offhand comment about the setting, then later apologized. They also seemed to only know about Red Steel only. Around the same time one of the original contributors asked about it and was rebuffed about opening it...

Just open it up on the guilds. It has a large fan base, it's arguably the most popular setting outside of the United States thanks to The Capcom games, Lodos Wars and the fact that it was the only TSR setting translated into other languages. I know they're not a fan of it because of the real...

Mystara calls it Official Fanon. Bruce filled in a huge number of nations of Alphatia that never got a mention on their own book. Some of it was such high quality it was widely adopted. Thorfinn's maps and Marco's Codex Immortals comes to mind

Artist is Mischa Cel Frumos. She's one of the two major Mystara artists today. Surprised you didn't mention the phanaton, the flying guy on the art here. There's a ton more in the Red Steel creature compendium like the goatmen, an orangutan humanoid and host more

Issue with the saves is how easy it is to force one. Strength might not have a large number of different things that cause a save, but one of the base attacks forces a STR save. INT saves don't have that luxury

This was actually one of my suggestions with the Wesley fighter. You have studied various fighting styles and can switch to the weapons to best handle the situation. 5e tends to give fighters everything (weapon prof) or almost nothing (fighting styles). Every class should have some mechanic...

Adult as in mature. Dark Sun, Planescape and Ravenloft are some of the best written settings for the game and deal with some pretty heavy topics.

You'd have to do it right of course, but adults seemed RPGs have been highly successful in the past. Vampire the masquerade when it hit rewrote the rules on what was allowed. I'm not saying go all r-rated but you can have mature themes. Despite the debacle that was the end of game of thrones...

It wouldn't be as much of a hurdle as you would think. That was a major factor in games like Skyrim. The Dark elves had their own enclave which was a major plot point. The best time for them to release greyhawk to capture its theme would have been the height of game of thrones. Yes they have...
