    D&D 5E (2024) Atlas of Faerun (with some pictures from the internet)

    I wouldn't be at all surprised if this isn't just an expanded / updated version of the SCAG map. I'm pretty sure Mike said back in the day that the full map he'd made was bigger than what got printed in the SCAG.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season 3 Viewing (Spoilers)

    At the start of the episode, Una says, “Starships will soon be able to go for more than 5 years without returning to the Federation.”

    D&D 5E (2024) Can a Warlock who swaps out Pact of Chain keep his familiar?

    If that’s the case, I would rule that the familiar goes poof when the warlock changes the terms of their pact.

    D&D General The Purple Dragon Knights are tied to an Amethyst Dragon (confirmed)

    Let’s not forget the first Dark Sun adventure, “Freedom”, in which the brave PCs get to “help” the novel heroes with their rebellion against Kalak by running errands and other fun stuff.

    Spoilers Wednesday S2

    I read an interesting theory that she might be Tyler’s mother. Could explain what his dad was doing, why there were extra warnings on her door, and the whole “You’re not my mother” thing between Tyler and Christina Ricci’s character.

    Spoilers Wednesday S2

    What’s weird about this season is that it’s set at the school but none of them are shown going to any classes (unlike in the first season). I knew mechanical heart zombie boy was going to be more important! I didn’t expect Dr Fairborn to die so soon, though. Do we think that woman Wednesday...

    Spoilers Wednesday S2

    I think it could work as like a single episode of Wednesday -- like a one-off Halloween special that's not connected to any of the main plots -- but I'm not sure I'd want a whole series like that. It would probably end up feeling too much like What We Do in the Shadows.

    Spoilers Wednesday S2

    Yes, I will say I preferred the 90s movies' take of the Addams Family being the weird ones in a world full of normies. However, I do think this show still does a reasonably good job of making them stand out from the other outcasts. They get special treatment (like Wednesday's custom all-black...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season 3 Viewing (Spoilers)

    Wasn't Pike's Enterprise on a 5-year mission too? Isn't that why he missed out on the Klingon War? He took over as Discovery's captain while the Enterprise was being overhauled after its return. Am I remembering correctly?

    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    It would be cool if they did. It only got a brief mention in the SCAG (namely, the war with the kingdom is mentioned as being the reason for the failure of Luruar).

    D&D 5E (2024) Tomb of Annihilation: likes and Dislikes

    I've run this adventure twice. The first time was more by-the-book. I had the Death Curse going from the start, and the PCs missed a lot of the fun stuff. Omu was a real meat grinder. Numerous PCs died there, including one that lasted maybe 30 minutes in real time! Second time I ran it, I...

    D&D 5E (2024) Tomb of Annihilation: likes and Dislikes

    A zombie t-rex that regurgitates humanoid zombies no less! And a living t-rex that is covered in feathers and can teleport around!

    Oh! Just looked and that's literally the next episode I have to watch ("Visionary")!

    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    I haven't gotten around to reading that adventure in its entirety, so I wasn't aware of that. That's good to hear! Maybe there will indeed be a Many-Arrows revival in the new FR books.

    Spoilers Wednesday S2

    So the long-awaited second season of Wednesday is now out. Or the first half of it at least. I’ve watched the first two episodes so far. Really enjoying it! They waste no time revealing Wednesday’s stalker. Lots of cameos, including Haley Joel Osment as a deranged serial killer and...

    Imprinting on media

    I've never watched the original Mission: Impossible show myself, but my parents did, and this was exactly their reaction to the first M:I movie when we went to see it in the theater together however long ago that was.

    TSR Example from the worst TSR adventure module(s) ever published

    I asked ChatGPT to write me an encounter in the same style as the Brigands encounter. This is what it gave me: Still not as LOL as the actual thing but better than what it gave you!

    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    As an aside: I've said this many times before, but I think one of the worst decisions WotC made in the early 5e transition era was to wipe out the Kingdom of Many-Arrows. They had been steadily building it up as an example of orcs growing beyond their savage nature and would've been a perfect...

    D&D General The Purple Dragon Knights are tied to an Amethyst Dragon (confirmed)

    Thanks. I still wouldn't call that MCU style like what we're seeing in the latest Marvel movies or the Loki TV show. Yes, it talks about "parallel worlds" but I still think they're referring to something different. I take it as being that the Material Plane, the Ethereal Plane, the Outer Planes...
