I guess this does confirm that the Minsc' and Boo's Journal of Villainy book was indeed third party or at least not canon - since the Demodands in there had completely different art and stat blocks (no summoning for example, Farastu was CR7 and could get weapons stuck to its skin). Love the new...

I know people who instead of inking a sketch, use some technique called vektoring in photoshop. I tried it a few times, never worked... I am sticking to what I know. At any rate, looking at the Maw of Yeenoghu, it looks like the artist basically had the AI somehow do all the digital coloring...

Well the point is, Primus did an experiment to impose order on Limbo, and it did not work. As far as I understand he did not create the Slaadi, they already existed. However they started to use the spawning stone to reproduce, and I think the theory is, the weird gemstones that are inside Slaad...

Xanxost would have been tailor-made to do the bestiary, agreed. Well, we can hope he is in the book in some form. Maybe adding small footnotes like Elminster did in Volo's, to correct Morte? LOOOL. I like this. It reminds me of the old auto-translators like Babelfish and early Google translate...

Ravenloft is a book I never even bought, they neutered the whole concept by removing alignments and leaving too much freedom for the DM to change the setting. I feel that book will get a re-release online once they transition to OneD&D or whatever, because as we have seen in later releases like...

I am torn on the DiTerlizzi covers. The new art for the books and DM screen looks pretty nice too and DiTerlizzi's while harkening back to 2E which I loved, seem to have little to do with the actual book content - for example with he drew Morte for the Bestiary, not a Githyanki...

That's funny, if he never existed, then who kept narrating and adding comments to Volo's Guide to Monsters in his name? ;) (Ah it was probably Shemeshka, she did mess with Mordenkainen and Bigby too by having an apprentice release his secret writings...) ;) But, umm, they ARE Chaotic...

If Orcus once killed Primus - and Orcus has an 5E stat block - then logic dictates Primus will too have a stat block. Probably CR22 or over, but it is kind of a point of the Modron race that Primus can never truly be killed, one of the Secundi will be promoted instantly... unless you meddle...

Here is hoping we see some Archons (the celestials, not the terrible looking armored Elementals, those are called Myrmidons anyway), Guardinals, Lillends, maybe even classic celestial Elf style Eladrin. It's crazy that 5E has been around for 10 years now and they never gave us more than 3 types...

I feel given that we have Warforged and Autognomes as playeable, they are kinda superfluous as yet another construct race. It would have been interesting, but from my interactions with Nordom in Torment, I feel Rogue Modrons work best as NPCs. They would be hard to motivate to go on quests and...

Walking Castles, I am super happy someone remembered them.

I don't see the Friendly Fiend shop, hope Akin is still around though, if Shemeshka is! ;) The Smoldering Corpse bar could mean Ignus from Planescape Torment would be recruitable there, potentially... Yes, had me at that and the map and especially Shemeshka. 'cause I know all this art also...

Would be nice if they finally included stats and art for the Archdevils... so we could get miniatures of them. So far we only have minis for Zariel and from the old WotC sets, Mephistopheles and Dispater - but the latter two were Very Rares and super expensive to get today.

"Reimagined for modern audiences" are those words that when uttered, summon even more dread than if someone said Demogorgon three times fast. Yeah, I am hoping they do not mess up Planescape badly. I am still on board due to the DiTerlizzi art (and minis based on said art) but my expectations...

Oh I forgot Satyrs (or are they Fauns now?) were also made playable in Theros. Indeed if they have a headbutt attack, just add that. I am surprised btw why they have the Glitchlings and not Rogue Modrons. While they were constructs, Modrons were still affected by a lot of spells that affect...

I am hoping there aren't many player character feats and such to take up space. They should save those for Tasha/Xanathar style books, let campaign settings books be about campaign settings. I could see them bringing back the Bariaurs as a playeable race, but I doubt it to be frank, ever since...
