The Age of Arcanum produced a surprising number of floating cities. IIRC before EXU: Calamity began we knew of Aeor, Draconia, and Zemniaz, all three of which have been destroyed. Now we have Avalir, which itself originated from a heretofore unknown continent called Domunas (though this could...

There's always the chance that whatever the characters do in EXU: Calamity, even if they can't actually stop the Calamity itself, could have repercussions that might show up somewhere. So far particularly major events of Critical Role's campaigns have been noted in sourcebooks published...

I watched it live the other night and have some thoughts: I'd only ever seen bits of Brennan Lee Mulligan's game mastering where he was running games of a more comedic tone, so it was nice to see in the first few minutes that he's more than capable of going dark. Lots of fantasy settings have a...

The most well-regarded 4E adventures to my knowledge are Reavers of Harkenwold (an Asmodeus-worshiping mercenary company called the Iron Circle attacks a barony), Madness at Gardmore Abbey (a paladin's stronghold was thrown into chaos by the Deck of Many Things, which has left lingering effects...

IIRC the final print issue of Dungeon had some kind of list like that.

I've never played the original Temple of Elemental Evil, but earlier today I listened to a podcast that previously had praised Queen of the Demonweb Pits and had pretty much nothing nice to say about Temple of Elemental Evil, going so far as to question why people even remember it.

Glad I got the physical copies of Volo's and Mordenkainen's, as well as the monster cards WotC put out. There aren't many changes to the monsters I've seen that I like, and even though I'm fine with non-villainous takes on various creatures I'm glad I have a comprehensive resource for the bad...

Chwingas are tiny, fey-like elementals (apparently there was a bit of debate during development as to what what creature type they should be) with variants based on their environment whose main mechanical benefit is that they can grant a charm (like the ones from the DMG) once per day. They...

A bit surprised just how many Dark Sun creatures are apparently in new Spelljammer. I wonder what this means for Dark Sun itself.

I forgot about the skill feats, but I'll probably allow those in my next campaign.

I'm guessing the lack of new subclasses among the party means there won't be any in the upcoming release. Which is fine, but I was curious.

That was shorter than I expected, but still fun. The ship's cook being described as "witch-shaped" got a laugh out of me.

I'm gonna miss this Silas guy. He sounded kind of like an irate Jason Statham.

I'll at least give it a look to see if we get any more sneak peaks at Spelljammer (such as the new races, new subclasses, Spelljamming action, etc).

4E ended up having a surprising number of fomorian variants. Off the top of my head, there was a fomorian that commanded enslaved ghosts, a fomorian portal lord that had developed teleportation magic from studying the erratic portals of a fomorian king's fortress, and a skirmisher fomorian that...

I'll try to give answers that haven't already been given before: 1) Since 5E Spelljammer will use the Astral Sea there will now be chances for sailors to run into githyanki riding red dragons, emissaries from the Outer Planes (angels, morons, demons, devils, morons, etc), the crews of other...
