Now I feel the threat of a WotC 'smart' book that reports how many times I have to look up a rule. "Looks like you forgot about total cover again, would you like me to send a reminder to your phone?" - Clippy, the reincarnated d20

I don't have a citation but this is a departure from the earliest of days of 5E going by the DMG and SCAG. I do believe it is their design rationale. WotC/Crawford are only going to use the lore they present in current books. You won't have to reference old materials to know what is going on and...

I think the statement from Crawford is that the TTRPG will not be mandating anything canon from outside the 5E TTRPG products. I am sure the fiction line still has a bible, but since that stable of authors is currently Bob Salvatore and maybe Ed Greenwood. I don't think there is going to be much...

Ok. Look Crawford is not saying anything new here. They could always change canon. They have changed canon many, many times. Spellplague FR shows how much they can change while 'respecting' canon. All Crawford is saying is what they have done all along. They change what they want and the stories...

Let's leave the racism discussion behind and stick to embracing the void. Sword and Sorcery has a very thick vein of actions being forgotten by history but being huge to the present. Heroes, well protagonists, of S&S stories are masters of their own destiny. They move through the world and the...

Ok. I like canon. I love the 'deep cuts' that get thrown to new adventures referencing old material. What happens when the old material is problematic though? Do we cling to canonical Vistani or the reworked Vistani? WotC isn't dumping 50 years of stories, they just aren't going to hold them as...

Alright, now do Humean Scepticism in classical French/ Italian fairy tales! Existentialism as a story hook for either individual characters or for the party as a whole is fantastic. Of course, you need player buy-in, but it is a great way to show players that character choices and actions do...

Listen, this is a FANTASY RPG accessory, right? Stop injecting reality into it. WizKids is not in the .stl business. Still, there are numerous Patreons that will have 'Feywild' themes in the next 6 months with their own spins on the Witchlight Carnival. There have been sets from numerous artists...

Man, Beadle and Grimm's looked at that and went, "Who is going to spend that?" Give me the .stl's for $100 and I will print and paint my own.

Gha. Now I looked too. The 3 hags are all amazing as well. Who doesn't want a hag named Skabetha? Or Bavlorna with her Mini-Bavs all over her. I have moved to must buy for Witchlight. Not necessarily the miniatures although the Starter sets are a sure thing. This looks to be an entertaining...

I always thought it was Male elf. TIL...

Didn't they put ol' Moloch in a piece already? I may be confusing an .stl patreon.

Listen, those robes are wool and heavy. You need to let those stems breathe. Kelek doesn't maintain a strict lotion and keratin regime to cover them up with pants.

It will be the 'squee' heard 'round the world.

I need these as the little brothers and sisters to my original action figures. Now we need a Fortress of Fangs miniature terrain!

Have you looked at Symbaroum and how they handle corruption? Every magic spell learned corrupts and everything cast corrupts. You pass a threshold and turn into evil twisted NPC. Different ‘classes’ provide ways to mitigate corruption.

Two things bug me about this. One there is no acknowledgement of the actual argument of what Ernie and associates said in regards to transfolk and the horrible doubling down. Two there is no acknowledgement of all the OSR companies who have been pumping out tons of old school feeling products...

Truly this dumpster fire is a renewable energy source. If only we can harness the power of this circular firing squad!

For a minute I was starting to think 'Michael' had staged a hostile intervention to save TSR. Cutting out all the principals by taking over their accounts. But sadly, it is just poorly planned spin and gaslighting.
