    D&D General Can a Wish spell move a moon to cause an eclipse?

    Something needs to be done on an eclipse, some the powerful archmage wishes for there to be an eclipse. They were cautious enough to mention it should happen almost immediately, so that the wish wouldn't transport them to a time when there was or will be an eclipse. Could their wish cause a...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Armanites and Goristoi have explicit references about being able to breed with others of their kind, and that's not including other 2e sources about Tanar'ri Demons in general. I'd still use the 2e sources especially if 5e is generally silent on an issue due to lack of elaboration. 3e sort of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Undersized Performance from Gargantuan Monsters?

    Remember that Two-Handed Swords did 3d6 damage to large creatures, somehow they became more vulnerable to such weapons.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Half of all Armanites are born from Armanite parents, as they were more or less a species similar to Centaurs, Bariuars or Wemics but are now native to the Abyss. They are explicitly stated as having genders, often segregate themselves into herds based on gender, and tend to mate after victories...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Planescape on the subject of Demons breeding says it's possible, and typically the child is the same rank as the parents or in between with they aren't. It also says that there's a breeding program of Goristos which makes sense as they're more Demon War Beasts, and less like Demon people. And...

    I forgot about those, even though Cambions and Succubi have changed a bunch.

    Faces of Evil definitely says they can breed. Planescape for sure, but even Greyhawk says that Demons can breed at least with non-Demons as Iuz is the son of Graz'zt and Iggwilv.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Demons do breed. There's multiple ways to make a Demon, whether it be as a petitioner (a soul in the afterlife) which could be as a Mane or Larva initially, through breeding, through being spontaneously spawned by the Abyss itself or through corruption.

    Graz'zt is incapable of giving High Fives. But a High Six hasn't gone too well given that most don't have six fingers like Graz'zt does.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    So one of the promotional art pieces show 5 characters, I'm guessing this is supposed to be the Artificer subclasses (though not necessarily the pictures for the featured subclass art, as it lacks D&D species diversity given that 4 out of 5 of them look Human). I think it's quite clear which...

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    Interestingly enough Strixhaven doesn't have campaign prereqs for it's Strixhaven Initiate feats either, but I'd assume one would need to be a student to get one, which would most likely be in those school backgrounds. As Strixhaven was perhaps the second instance of the 2024 type backgrounds...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Not completely, the PHB says "12+" inside the cover, and it's roughly the age range of D&D for the last few decades as well. Though there's been non-core books directed for younger audiences.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Animal Lords in the new Monster Manual says they have "subtle animal-like feature" when they appear Humanoid. But the artist definitely didn't get that memo, and made them appear as full-on furries. An example of an Animal Lord in 5e with more subtle animal-like features, is the Cat Lord that...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    DiTerlizzi drew them as very masculine, but every edition after they're more androgynous in appearance.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    They stuck with a mostly masculine representation of the Deva, even though they look more androgynous than before, a creature that was once explicitly described as appearing like a Human male in previous editions. The Planetar you could say is more non-binary in appearance as they do look like...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Marilith Is Far More Bestial In 2025

    Thinking about other part snake beings that have been mostly depicted as female, I looked up the 2e entry for the Lillendi a Celestial that hasn't appeared with a creature statblock in 5e yet, despite appearing in some 5e art. It actually said that there are Lillendi male humanoid torsos, except...

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    I'd like to see an Artificer create a Repeating Musket on a desert island that's better than that bamboo tube that Captain Kirk used to fight that Gorn.

    D&D Launches New Eberron-Themed Playtest With Dragonmarked Feats

    One thing I'm curious about with Goblins in Eberron is are they going to attempt to explain the Fey part of the Goblins in core 2024 D&D assumptions? Was the Dhakaani Empire formed by ancient refugees from Thelanis?

    D&D 5E (2024) Some new info on upcoming books, like Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide includes Magic Items

    So maybe one use of Circle Casting would be to raise the Spell Slot level of a spell being used, based on the number of participants.
