D&D has canonically allowed reptilian (dragons), undead (vampires) fey (nymphs, satyrs, and hags) and all manner of planar (fiends, angels and genies) to produce viable offspring with humans. Biological compatibility in D&D is more a guideline than an actual rule...

Aka "I have a bunch of examples, but I'm afraid giving them would reveal my biases, so I'll just allude to them and let you try to figure out what they are." Provide examples or we can assume the answer is "none, except for the ones I made up in my head."

I wouldn't worry then. All the +1 spellcasting items, with the exception of the warlock rod, are also only in Tasha and haven't been reprinted. You're in the same boat as wizards, sorcerers, cleric and druids.

I got it yesterday as well after work. Ty.

I see what you're trying to do... Beyond the Magic Mirror and Gamma World confirmed?

All Purposes Tools are in Tasha's

The Old Empires are anachronistic, stereotypical and don't even make sense. Ancient Egypt and Babylon is on the same continent as Waterdeep and Neverwinter? They have as much consistency as the Worlds Pavilion at Epcot. Please, replace them with something interesting.

Ok... 1. What are the backgrounds? 2. Can artificers or artillerist use firearms? 3. What changed with alchemist? 4. Do shifters pick one type of form or can they pick a different one each time? 5. How does the cartographer look?

Almost all half-monsters have moved away from monster-paramore as the primary or only way of creation.

Well... Spill the deets!

Turbocharged.

Part of the problem is that D&D (up to 4e) had seven races it used as core. (Half-orc disappeared for one edition in the middle, even further diminishing it). You have to go to 4e to get two new races in the PHB, and there is a highly resistant strain of DMs who cannot accept anything but the...

So does anyone have access to this book yet or are we all making assumptions based on outdated info and innuendo?

I think WotC should have stuck to its guns with Tymanther. I cannot imagine there was a call for an Ancient Fertile Crescent inspired area of Faerun, especially one that barely bothers to file off the real world names. Between that and destroying Many Arrows just to justify the traditional orc...

Oh, I liked the changes they made to SJ. They just didn't give me enough material to make it work as a campaign setting.

Part of that issue is that D&D is crap at onboarding new players in the Lore of D&D. D&D has no fixed world to explain the world with. You read the PHB about elves and you an very basic idea of what an elf is, but not a lot on how they fit into the world. Even 3e (which gave us info on religion...

Side question to all this: are we only worried about the 10 PHB species or do we also want tabaxi nations, haregon villages, and the Triton population of Waterdeep?
