Hey it's midnight and I'm tired I'll be back in the morning to make a witty Marshall McLuhan joke

I'd argue that Realmspace is part of Spelljammer, not the forgotten realms but that's basically academic.

Mod Edit: Media removed. That did not pass muster with our content guidelines. ~Umbran

The forgotten realms is set in Abeir-Toril. The setting has two planets, in the same way that Eberron kind of has thirteen planets. What's the difference between putting it in Abeir and putting it in Osse, really? At least you can kinda square the lore of Arkhosia with that of Abeir, and...

The simplest answer is that it's part of Abeir. That's why it doesn't interact with Toril that much; it's a part of Abeir that wasn't transported during the spellplague, but it's still got lots of the races, classes and lore that were added during 4e. As a 5e DM, if you want your players to go...

Remember when TSR published Encyclopedia Magicka and used a 1994 era AI to find and replace all instances of "mage" with "wizard", resulting in a book going to print that had spells that do "ten points of dawizard"? There's nothing more or less ethical about gen AI than a spellcheck. It's a...

My thoughts exactly. This is nice but it could've been an article on DnD beyond instead and we could've taken those 20 pages and used them for some adventures themed around gem dragons or something else useful to running the game. What this tells me is they didn't have enough content to fill 20...

I was going to use Rawhide Kobayashi as an example but Ironfoundersson is fine too

I've been in favor of a background and origin feat that's something like "dwarven traditionalist" that gives the smattering of brewer tools and hammer and armor proficiencies, or "elf traditionalist" which gives rapiers and longbows and such. Theoretically you could take that feat even if you're...

Hand the DM a beer or snacks they didn't have to pay for, get advantage on your next d20 roll.

Trans people exist in the real world, but I think our contemporary conception of "gender" and thus "transgender" doesn't necessarily exist in fantasy worlds. It's kind of a bugbear of mine when it comes to fantasy, where they just assume that because the society has both men and women it also...

Haven't there been trans drow in published adventures since Waterdeep: Dragon Heist? In my sigil campaign I run I've got a prominent drow athar (read: atheist) cleric NPC who's also agender; it believes that Lolth actually promotes femdom-style gender essentialism and so the real way to rebel...

I got to know Cao briefly when I ran the largest fansite for an MMO he helmed, DC Universe Online. I remember that game having to be retooled partway through development because Cao read an article that a human being couldn't handle more than 8 options at a time, so he demanded the game's power...

I have absolutely no interest in Drizzt or his extended characters, but I'm wondering; if WotC were to include this half-human half-drow woman in the game, how would they depict her? There are no half-elves in the 2024 books. Would they give her an elf or human race? Use the Khoravar race from...

Rising up in armed rebellion against oppression is "evil" now?

Veilguard didn't respect it's own premise, the naughty word you talking about? The previous entry in the series showed us that the global underclass of elves were going to rise up against their oppressors under the leadership of their trickster god. In veilguard, not a single elf is depicted as...

If she isn't, I'll quickly whip up some Earthsea fanfic and that'll get her spinnin'

Really? I can't count the number of times I've seen Spidey run out of web fluid or Superman needing to fly closer to the sun to recharge his powers. Even Batman or Tony Stark sometimes lose the aid of their gadgets and have to rely on their fists. You could even say the Hulk's anger is a...
