    D&D General Build the "Definitive Pantheon"

    I always liked how Brigid of the Celts was patron of both Hearth and Forge.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    I said schtick, not trick! I'd link the clip, but I don't think Eric's grandmother would approve. ;)

    D&D General D&D Assumptions Ain't What They Used To Be

    The one good argument I heard for this is that artists would check secular sources on what a phylactery should look like and would get references to tefillin, so instead of an amulet they'd draw them as little leather boxes with straps.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    When they revisit the Artificer, I hope they shift away from the pseudo-steampunk stuff and more toward object oriented casting being their core identity. This is where rune magic should sit, and animistic fetish crafting, or incarnum style objects made of pure magic.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    Between the conjurations and the example art, they seem to be leaning in to a stage magician like schtick for the Illusionist.

    Name OAR desires from sources other than TSR?

    I had similar thoughts along these lines. Digging in to the adventures of some of the old non-TSR gaming magazines. The rights issues may be a bit tangled in some cases though.

    Level Up (A5E) Core Rulebook is missing?

    The LevelUp equivalent of the Player's Handbook can be found here... https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/376471/level-up-adventurer-s-guide-a5e

    D&D 5E (2024) Which Setting Featured Already in 5E Do You Want a New Supplement For?

    Yeah, it's sort of a twisted path. When Half-Giants were adapted for 3e they were given psionics because Darksun, so it was natural to plop them in Sarlona. When Darksun was revised Half-Giants were deemed Goliaths. Now, Goliaths are mini-versions of the standard giants who live in Xen'drik. o_O...

    D&D 5E (2024) Which Setting Featured Already in 5E Do You Want a New Supplement For?

    I'd like a return to Eberron in the slipcase format. Book one would be a mechanical tune-up for things like dragonmarks, species options, and the Artificer; maybe a revisit to Stormreach to bring in the history of the new mini-giant Goliaths. Book two would be a Eberron monster guide. Book three...

    D&D General Build the "Definitive Pantheon"

    That's a side effect of 4e's alignment system. Law is ++Good and Chaos is ++Ungood.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Warlock"

    The example they gave was adding Repelling Blast to Ray of Frost so that you could knock back and slow an opponent at the same time.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Warlock"

    I was pleasantly surprised that damage cantrip boosting invocations can be applied to more than Eldritch Blast. I hope chain familiar options will continue to be expanded in the Everything books. Some more Fey and Celestials would be nice. I'd really like to see the return of the Eyeball...

    D&D General Gnome Paladins

    I played an Oath of the Ancients Forest Gnome Paladin. Seemed completely on brand to me. 🤷

    D&D 5E (2024) Youtube Reveal: Tieflings

    Only a slight loosening on the uniformity of appearance, but they all still look like variations on a sports mascot devil. I like the mechanics of the Cthonic legacy.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's the future of Xanathar and Tasha? (+)

    I think they'll spread the other Wizard subs over at least two sources books. It's the class they've had the hardest time coming up with subclasses for.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Video Reveals, Week of 6/24!

    I would assume Bard, Cleric, Monk and Sorcerer the following week, with no video on the 4th.

    D&D 5E (2024) PHB 2024 Creature Reveal: Sphinx of Wonder

    That's good to hear. Outside of Fiend and Fey, Chainlocks didn't have any good thematic options.

    D&D 5E (2014) All playable animalistic beings in 5e - wotc and third party

    The Blue Rose Adventures Guide has the Rhydan (non-humanoid psychic animals). There's a template to create them from any beast up to a certain CR, but the premade ones are Rhy-cat, Rhy-wolf, Rhy-horse, and Rhy-fen (dolphin).

    D&D 5E (2024) The 2014 vs 2024 PHB Compatibility Thread

    I wonder if Tasha's Bubbling Cauldron is specifically called out as a Artificer spell in her preview material? 🤔
