    Other D&D Variant Castles&Crusades: Codex Exaltum and Codex Infernum

    I find Kult’s model pretty fun too. I have adapted it for use in a D&D game as an in world conspiracy theory about the gods. I find 4e’s model of angels just being astral servants of gods (including neutral and evil ones) works well in a D&D polytheistic context.

    Other D&D Variant Castles&Crusades: Codex Exaltum and Codex Infernum

    Are they D&Dified for their individual entry lore or are they full on an existing non rpg lore such as biblical references?

    D&D 5E (2024) Ed Greenwood to Publish 4 New Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks in 2026

    From what is posted I am not sure he is actually writing them, it looks like he will be working with a team that is doing the writing or most of the writing. On the linked patreon post the closest it said was "The writing team features both familiar Realms voices who have authored many tomes in...

    D&D 5E (2024) Orc lore in the new Forgotten Realms books?

    I think it is just the MM, the 14 PH mentions humans explicitly in the half orc entry but not other races. "Whether united under the leadership of a mighty warlock or having fought to a standstill after years of conflict, orc and human tribes sometimes form alliances, joining forces into a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Orc lore in the new Forgotten Realms books?

    As a PC race it has been half-human from 1e to 5e. In the 1e MM it talks about half-orcs of other species specifically: Half-Orcs: As orcs will breed with anything, there are any number of unsavory mongrels with orcish blood, particularly orc-goblins, orc-hobgoblins, and orc-humans. Orcs...

    D&D 5E (2024) Orc lore in the new Forgotten Realms books?

    Have they? I thought they were planning to do so in the 24 PH and make it an official option but then backed off from doing so and just did not address the issue at all. Has there been anything saying they are actually taking that position? From statements people have said about half elves and...

    Want to play a Duck?

    I don't think there was an official one but there are tons of anthro animal RPGs from TMNT to Usagi Yojimbo RPG and things like the 1930s set Urban Jungle.

    TSR On the Relative Merits of the TSR Editions

    My preferred playstyle is fairly shaped by Moldvay B/X Basic which I mostly learned D&D from to start. As a DM lots of making rulings on what makes sense, even mechanical things like morale and reaction rolls are explicitly optional. Minimal mechanics including only minor attribute bonuses so...

    TSR On the Relative Merits of the TSR Editions

    OSRIC came out first but Labyrinth Lord took off soon after and publishers embraced it. I have all the XRP OSRIC stuff but they are pretty much it for support stuff. I have a ton more LL stuff from a variety of publishers.

    Best practices for easy-to-run modules [+]

    I remember my brother raving about the series of these in the 1e Chicago by Night book when he was running our Vampire the Masquerade game. The more connections and the more people in the web however the more visually complicated it gets.
