According to the regular great wheel cosmology, no. None of the Outer Planes are. But there are colour pools in the Astral Pläne that allow you to reach any of the Outer Planes (the ones for the Outlands are leather brown in colour). No idea how they'll change it with the Astral Sea paradigm...

They don't just want to agree on the same thing, they want you to agree with them.

If we count by the number of seasons, Avatar: the Last Airbender + The Legend of Korra has an amazing batting average. Book 1 of Avatar has a few meh episodes, but the entire rest of the series is 10/10. Korra's Book 1 is eh, Book 2 is atrocious, but Books 3 and 4 take the franchise in a really...

Wildspace, the final frontier... These are the voyages of the spelljammer Venture. Its continuing mission: To explore strange new crystal spheres. To seek out new life and new civilisations. To boldly go where no humanoid has gone before!

I think 1 hour is fine as is. It's a decently substantial amount of time so that recuperating has consequences (such as a wandering monster roll in a dungeon crawl, or time moving).

Oooh, another white whale of mine: Having a long-running Planescape and/or Mage: The Ascension campaign where all of the players take all the philosophical themes very seriously. As in, I want the game to be essentially a long discussion about metaphysics. But I'm the nerdiest one in my gaming...

Spoilers for Out of the Abyss: But yeah, the book really did not present all of its info in a concise manner. You need to read through the entire book to get a clear idea of what's going on.

Oh, or running a game for JIMISBEST (or his friend?) where nobody gets into any complicated bloodline shenanigans or applies spells in fringe ways. The story is extremely straightforward and the rules are completely by RAW.

I had heard of it (mostly from Cam Banks tweeting about his experiences with the game), but that gives me an extra incentive to check it out!

I've managed to check a lot of stuff from my DMing bucket list this month (finished 2 Tier 4 campaigns the same week!), but there is some stuff I've yet to cross off my list: Having a "generational" campaign that lasts several decades (in-game!) and sees the characters age substantially. I'm...

Oh no, she gets no stats IMO. Stats imply somebody can cheese her, and that's just not possible. One Interpretation I like of Planescape is the idea that the setting turns D&D's cosmology into a post-modernist interpretation of how metanarratives shape reality, with each faction (and their...

I remember reading in some fan communities that according to some very obscure lore the Lady is some kind of an extremely ancient and powerful entity that possibly existed before the creation of this multiverse, and that only things on par with her were other obscure, primordial entities like...

IIRC, petitioners don't tend to move outside their designated afterlife that much (they might not even be capable of doing so but I'm not sure). But the magic-free areas of the Outlands were explicitly stated to be a preferred meeting area for Powers, since it guarantees that neither side can...

I now have the urge to barge into that thread, yell "BEHOLD, A MONK!", and then post a picture of an Abrams tank or something.

I've seen contradicting depictions of it throughout the years. I guess having it be an open ring makes it easier to map (too many parts wrapping up to each other in the torus), so that's what they went with. But honestly I've seen both official art and fan art that went both ways.

Some people doubling down on being insufferable when you point out that they're being insufferable and uncivil is... Annoying.

I'd honestly suggest giving Barbie a chance and try to look at it without prejudice. Greta Gerwig is a genuinely good director who does not do vapid, consumer culture films, and she's clearly going to deconstruct what Barbie means and use all the saccharine coating to flip the script. We might...

Alright.

First of all, I called your argument disingenious because your tone was fairly accusatory towards @Clint_L for no reason, and made it seem like his dislike of psionics (and desire to have his D&D without it) was something unusual. This is disingenious when removing things from the game has been...

The more I see Ryan Gosling's press tours, the more unhinged the movie seems to me. His Kenergy is incredible. He is more than Kenough to drive me mad. He has reached maximum Kenlightenment.
