I noticed that there's a new Galaxy Guide coming out in April. I kind of wonder if it will replace the Pact Worlds and Near Space books. Does anyone know anything about it beyond what is in the product description?

Owen, you just made my day.

I would like to see the following. Dragonlance Dark Sun Campaign Guide Al-Qadim Gamma World (in the style of the last one!) Nentir Vale adventure and gazetteer Mystara Campaign Guide and adventure, perhaps with a Princess Ark tie-in Neverwinter sourcebook/adventure Magic: the Gathering...

Beginning in 4e, it was said that psionics was the material plane's response to the incursion of the Far Realm. Kind of like an antibody.

AGREED! I can see it as one possible origin (GOO warlock), but the aberrant mind should be more generic, IMO. I still like psionics to have a connection with crystals. Or someone mentioned Jedi.

Soth is also infamous in Ravenloft. See the Terror of Lord Soth novels for some great reading. When I think of death knights, Lord Soth is the first to come to mind. He is the iconic death knight. I see where you're coming from, though. You make a good point.

This is absolutely awful. It reminds me of rotoscope or early CG animation. The death knight of the 2014 Monster Manual was Lord Soth, the most iconic death knight in all of D&D. The art was gorgeous. They didn't need to re-do the art because the existing art was gorgeous.

Star Trek: TNG used race for different peoples from different planets.

Every time I think of ancestry, I think of genealogy, particularly with Ancestry.com. Other terms I've heard are kindred, lineages, and heritages. The last two just don't gel with me. My rule of thumb is that whatever term is used needs to replace "race" or "racial" in a sentence. My only...

That's it! Thank you!

I'm having a brain fart. Maybe you guys can help me. In some D&D book (possibly third party), there is a section on taking some battle master fighter maneuvers and combining them with skills, feats, etc. to create archetypes. I want to say one is a gladiator.I thought it was in Tasha's or...

I ran Dark Sun for about 2-3 sessions back in the day, but ended it. I think my big problem with the setting was that there was no room for heroes. My group was partially comprised of former gladiator slaves. One of the player characters became a general of escaped muls, half-giants...

Tracy Hickman. Because who needs story in their games, right? ;) (For the record, I love what Tracy Hickman has done for the hobby.) -------------------- Also, any and all campaign settings. Greyhawk - Too basic Forgotten Realms - Too detailed Dragonlance - Too railroady Taladas - Not...

Perfect for a thri-kreen.

Maybe GOO-gle? :D

I'm picturing a warlock whose patron is "The Man in Black" - Johnny Cash himself. You can summon ghost riders in the sky or a ring of fire. Or...get this...you could have your patron being Waylon Jennings. He would narrate your adventures Dukes of Hazzard-style. Hank Williams as the Drifting...

I dig the idea of a warlock patron granting psionic abilities, but I wish there were alternatives to having Cthulhu-like beings granting them. I'd like to come up with some alternatives. The first thing that comes to my mind, which would be great for thri-kreen, is a hive mind. It has the...

It's already in the D&D older editions forum.

I can tell you that Ragnara was formerly known as Ma'Varkith, in the original Psionics Handbook, IIRC. From what I remember, she wasn't considered a Maenad at that point. They re-used the art, chose the name Ragnara (which I like better), and have used her for minis.
