Bans halflings? Kender anyone?

A large magical catastrophe could change that. This isn't incompatible at all. The gods have already left Krynn twice! A third time forever would be easily believable. This can be handled by a minor retcon to add in psionics after the disaster. One of the apocalypses could change the world...

Heh. I really don't know where the novels ultimately took Dragonlance, but I do know that at some point dragons were killing and absorbing the power of other dragons, creating a few uber powerful dragons surviving. At that point all you would need is an apocalyptic event and Dragonlance could...

You left off a 0. 3200 pages or bust! :p But seriously, I'd like to see closer to 420 for two books. 320 is good, though.

I'm hoping that they eventually get released as print of demand products on DMs Guild or something.

I'm the opposite of you and @TheSword. I don't really buy adventure books outside of anthologies and Undermountain(love me that Undermountain), so I want the lore in a setting book for me to draw on as I make my own adventures. Lore in adventure paths is lost to me.

It's very possible that if they make a Dark Sun setting, it will have a rule that only the preserver and defiler subclasses may be chosen.

There's a percentage of the population that are thrill seekers. They do dangerous things just to feel the rush. I can easily see adventurers being mostly from that segment of the population, with the rest being those with some great motivation.

I was in high school for the Challenger and in science class. The teacher wheeled in a TV so the class could watch the launch live. As you would expect from a high school class, there was lots of talking and laughing. When the Challenger exploded, you could have heard a pin drop for about 30...

I think it was a song sung by... ...I might be wrong, though. :p

And even worse at geography.

That means that either they are old enough to remember, or were young enough that they've been through history classes. ;)

Yeah. If they aren't going to be tall, make them like 6 inches to 1 foot, with a penchant for cleaning and cobbling shoes. I watch the Daily Show and other comedy "news" shows, and they periodically go out and ask people questions about current events. The level of ignorance and/or just plain...

No no no. That one is Slyminster. Sliminster is the dietician.

Elves are explicitly a race that remembers things, though. They go through old memories when they engage in reverie(the elven meditation at night). Knowledge and remembering are one of their main things! :)

Candle Keep and other major libraries would have that information. You could go to a Temple of Oghma. Heck, Contact Other Plane and Commune, or even Legend Lore would yield information. The loss of information after a few hundred years makes much more sense here in the real world where we...

About the only way I could think to do it would be to show 9th, 10th, and 11th level spells being casually thrown about by powerful Arcanists.

Hell, if a study came out showing that 20% of Americans STILL don't know that the Berlin Wall was taken down, I wouldn't be surprised.
