Some have theorized that White Wolf's Exalted was intended to be a mythic prehistory for the World of Darkness the way Earthdawn was super distantly connected to Shadowrun. I don't really see any setting or NPC connective tissue between the two besides the d10 rule system, but I am not a...

Dragoons20 Role-playing Game 1.1 Edition (1037) Microlite20 Skeleton Warrior: ? Zombie: Zombie attacks cause 20% chance to catch toxic zombism. Vampyre: Vampyre attacks cause 20% chance to catch vampirism.

Just FYI there is also a DMs Guild product on that region Greyhawk Expanded, The Baklunish Near West.

I would also say a lot of classic D&D fantasy settings would support a bunch of Arab pirate stuff. Greyhawk has the western third of the main continent dominated by the fantasy Arab Baklunish, though the west coast would be limited to various Baklunish nations for pirating as the Sea of Dust...

My second thought is if you are thinking about Al Qadim, there is the pirates specific small boxed set Corsairs of the Great Sea with a 32 page supplement on the region and pirates and 64 pages of 2e D&D fantasy Arab pirate adventures.

My first thought is 7th Sea 1st edition which has both a big swashbuckling pirates theme in an alternate fantasy age of sails earth but also a major fantasy Islamic Arabic region sourcebook the Crescent Empire. The Burning Sands was mentioned earlier which is the fantasy Arabic setting...

Tile Hack (1029) Microlite20 Undead: ? Skeleton: ? Zombie: ?

D&D 5e. I want something where it is easy for the characters to get into pulpy fights but not die easily. I am also very familiar with the rules and tropes and feels it gives me the options I want for the most part. My weekly 5e Carrion Crown campaign went for a year or two and was fantastic...

I have a ton of setting material I use. I think about it a lot to get stuff to make sense for me. I run modules. I will try to plan out monsters ahead of the time and make alterations a bunch to work better for my purposes. In the game I am fairly loose and ready to adapt to the players and...

I would say my campaigns are usually either pre or no apocalypse with plots that could result in apocalypse or no apocalypse. My mashup setting uses a bunch of prior apocalypses as past history to give a bunch of Conan style rise and falls of prior civilizations with things like Freeport’s Yig...

Microlite Storytelling (1025) Microlite20 Vampire: Vampires are created when a mortal and a vampire trade blood. Strong Vampire, Gangrel: ? Nimble Vampire, Nosferatu: ? Wise Vampire, Mekhet: ? Determined Vampire, Lasombra: ? Lordly Vampire, Ventrue: ? Charming Vampire, Daeva: ?

I expect WotC feel Fizban's Treasury of Dragons has got them covered for that topic area.

The Core 3.5 MM gives you five chromatics, five metallics, dragon turtle, dragonne, pseudodragon, and wyvern. The 3.5 Draconomicon gives you eight elemental drakes, faerie dragon, fang dragon, felldrake, nine landwyrms, ten planar dragons, shadow dragon, the squamous spewer, and the storm drake.

This is easy to do using standard D&D. Five chromatics and five metallics gives you 10 unique dragons for your campaign/setting. That is before getting into the dragon turtle, the planar dragons, the gem dragons, the linnorms, the lungs, and all the oddball dragons in various editions and...

Owl Hoot Trail (1003) Microlite20 Undead: ? Mummy: ? Skeleton, Undead Skeleton: Greater Dead Spirits shaman power. Spectre: ? Vampire: ? Zombie, Undead Zombie: Greater Dead Spirits shaman power. Shaman 4th Rank Spirits Greater Dead Spirits: Creates level x 2 total levels of undead skeletons or...

Eh, I think plenty expected to play past 9th level. The very first module G1 Steading of the Hill Giant Chief suggests nine at least 9th level PCs and has predone characters ranging from 9th to 14th level (plus Fonkin Hoddypeak elven multiclass 5/8 fighter MU with a -4 AC).

They also got an extra attack per round per level against goblins and kobolds and other humanoids with less than 1 HD. :) The actual big one for 1e PH fighters after name level at 9th is gaining that full second attack per round at 13th level.

2e was fantastic for this: Complete Priest's Handbook (introduces forces and philosophies, and underpowered followers of generic archetype gods) Legends & Lore Fleshes out the 1e Deities & Demigods human pantheons with much more lore, including nontheistic Taoist and Confucian spellcasting...

Spells have generally always been adjusted downward as editions progress. Oe 1st level charm person generally makes the person your permanent slave if they miss their save. The duration and effects have gone down and changed each edition. Charm Person: This spell applies to all two-legged...

There is the earlier 2e not-FR specific Monster Mythology which does that. Not done by Realms expert Eric Boyd but by Carl Sargent it is more a monster pantheon version of 2e Legends and Lore than the 2e FR Demihuman Deities but it is still quite good and will give you a bunch of lore on the...
