    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    How many playable species were shoehorned into the Forgotten Realms in each edition of D&D? And how many of these species were argued over by the fans before the 4e Dragonborn were introduced to the Realms?

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    If the Council of Wyrms setting was somewhere on Toril, I could see Io's Blood Isles being the former home of Toril's Dragonborn. This setting could have arose during the Age of Dragons, thus making the Dragonborn culture that lived on the Isles ancient. And since 5.5e is backwards compatible...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    What about a city-based setting? They can be cosmopolitan and species agnostic.

    For a moment there, I thought you were going to mention the City of Doors. ;)

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    We're talking about population size and distribution. Some species are going to be found in larger numbers than others depending on where you are in the setting. Not every species is going to be common in a given area. They're going to run the gamut between being very common to being very rare...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    Considering where most 5e adventures in Faerun occur, it's not surprising that Dragonborn sightings are pretty rare to non-existent. You're more likely to spot a Dragonborn PC than a Dragonborn NPC. Now if your character went beyond the Sword Coast to a place like Tymanther, it would be a...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Do the gargoyles have their own culture that exists independently of the culture whose buildings they arose from? Or would they be instilled with that very same culture from the moment of their rising? Every species within a setting has a city they designed with their own culture in mind. Their...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    True. Most people aren't going to pay a sleeping gargoyle much attention. They aren't going to notice anything amiss either.

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    I liked the alternate version for season three of the cartoon series. It was very well done. :) I would be very happy if it used as part of a remake of the cartoon series. As for putting them in the MCU, good question. *Xanatos and Tony Stark as friendly business rivals. It's because of Tony...

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Not all of Tymanther returned to Abeir during the Second Sundering due to divine intervention. A Dragonborn follower of the god Enlil summoned his god to the capital of Tymanther and that god somehow stopped the process which would have sent the city back to Abeir.

    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    I celebrate Thanksgiving with my brother and my parents at my parents' home up near Traverse City, MI. My favorite Thanksgiving dish would have to be the Harvest Apples (slices of apples cooked in a reduction of their own juices and cinnamon). We used to get several boxes of Stouffer's Harvest...

    Time travel doesn't exist because time travel wiped out the timelines where it did

    We haven't reached those spacetime coordinates yet. ;)

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Brooklyn fan here. ;) After him, I had a liking for the Heraldic Gargoyles in the London clan and Zafiro. Btw, there were several online Gargoyle sagas based off of the Gargoyles series. An alternate third season to the original Gargoyles series- the Goliath Chronicles. The Timedancer Saga...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    There is a book that also has Gargoyle angels in it. St. Patrick's Gargoyle by Katherine Kurtz. Here's an excerpt of the book: The gargoyles of Dublin, Ireland, have a sacred duty to perform. Formerly God’s avenging angels, for centuries they have been entrusted with guarding the churches and...

    A Tales of the Valiant version for a Gargoyle PC?

    Time travel doesn't exist because time travel wiped out the timelines where it did

    If you mean other timelines as in alternate timelines, the answer for both questions would probably be a yes if your setting was like the one in the G.O.D. Inc series by Chalker Jack.

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    There are the Gargoyles from the movie I, Frankenstein. In the movie, these gargoyles were created by the archangel Michael. So, you could have gargoyles of a Celestial nature. Another neat thing about these gargoyles is that they are shapeshifters. There were scenes in the movie where they...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Besides the standard Gargoyle, there are several other Gargoyle variants in the Forgotten Realms. From the Forgotten Realms Wiki: Barovian gargoyle, a variant of gargoyles that were endemic to the land of Barovia Fire gargoyle, an artificially created variant, made by the villainous magic-user...

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Now you got me wondering about how many of the 3pp companies that are producing 5e-related material are doing just that. ;) EN Publishing seems to be doing it with Level Up. I am not sure about Kobold Press' Tales of the Valiant atm. But who else could be outclassing WoTC? A subject for yet...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Since Gargoyles in RL are known for being waterspouts, the playable version could have this spell from Laser Llama when they reach 3rd level: Torrent 1st-level Evocation Classes: Druid, Magus, Sorcerer, Wizard Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self (30 foot line) Components: V, S, M (a...
