    D&D General Forgotten Realms Books Tables of Contents

    With the 4e Dragonborn, this was somewhat understandable as none of them really looked like an anthropomorphic Chromatic, Metallic or Gem Dragon. But when 5e came around, the Dragonborn gained 15 distinct looking subspecies that looked very much like anthropomorphic versions of the True...

    By some just revealed lore that Toril always had Dragonborn living on it prior to the Spellplague and the arrival of their Abeiran cousins. And somehow these Dragonborn were being mistaken for Lizardfolk and other scaly folk. The Torillian Dragonborn must be very proficient in the Deception...

    Abeir was given to the Primordials in the aftermath of the Dawn War by the overdeity Ao. However, there were so few Primordials left that their steeds, the dragons, overthrew them and claimed Abeir for themselves. The idea of Alien Dragonborn could have been less ridiculous if they came to...

    In which time there could have been a Second Tymanther-Unther War that saw Unther destroying Tymanther and bringing about the Dragonborn Diaspora.

    D&D 5E (2024) If D&D 2024 Had Been Radically Different, Would You Have Stuck With 5E

    Level Up also did this by splitting race into heritage and culture. It's pretty much 3.75e D&D.

    Thanks for the additional Dragonborn lore in the new book. (y) I went to the Forgotten Realms wiki to check out its' entry on the Second Sundering and the First Tymanther-Unther War. The lore mentioned in both FR Wiki entries appears (to me) to be at odds with the lore @MonsterEnvy mentioned...

    D&D 5E (2024) If D&D 2024 Had Been Radically Different, Would You Have Stuck With 5E

    I am currently staying with 5e because my group is just wrapping up its' Tyranny of Dragons adventure. We've been playing this adventure for almost three years now. We've just started thinking of trying out something other than D&D. This morning, I chatted with my DM about us trying out RPGs...

    I was wondering about your reference to a Sultana. Tymanther's government was led by a monarch/general known as the Vanquisher (a relative of Marvel's Punisher? :p) The Mharoti Empire in Midgard was ruled by the Half-Dragon Sultana.

    Thank goodness, D&D exists in a multiverse. :p While WoTC decided to do this to this version of Tymanther, any DM can just ignore it in their version of the Forgotten Realms.

    Is this what @Zeromaru X was trying to tell me when he said I wouldn't like how the new book is portraying the Dragonborn? Tymanther destroyed? The Dragonborn Diaspora?

    Okay. As a Dragonborn fan, does their lore cover their time on Abeir and then their time in Tymanther?

    Does the Character Species in Chapter 1 offer up any new crunch for the species or is it just FR Lore about each species?

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    It's cool. I have had a similar line of thinking when it came to Advanced 5e (aka Level Up) and 5e. I have thought of 5e as O5e. O as in Original. ;) R5e for 2024 D&D works for me.

    D&D General How do you prefer your monster books?

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    The stack of papers is thrown up into the air where they fold themselves into a paper Cloud of Daggers. :devilish: You should have filled out the paperwork. ;) Is considering a 5e-adjacent RPG to be 5.5e, a form of resistance? ;) I consider the Aasimar from PF1 to be more interesting than the...
