D&D has been stated to be in the Renaissance already, when they mentioned that pistols and muskets would be in the PHB.

There's the real world case of the deity known as Avalokiteśvara in India that's male, who's known as Guan Yin in China and Kanon in Japan that's female and occasionally called "The Chinese Virgin Mary" by westerners. I certainly think it isn't a stretch that fictional deities can have different...

Tieflings are quite common in Planescape they're one of the "Original 3" of species introduced in Planescape, Aasimar are less common because they came up with the idea for them later, and Genasi even less common because they were conceived near the end of the run. They had shorthand...

I think I remember one of the excerpts saying that Ranged Weapons can be used as an Arcane Focus with the subclass and Arcane Firearm. So shooting Fireballs out of pistols definitely is a thing with the Artillerist.

Geralt is a Ranger with a specific subclass that has spells like Shield, Burning Hands, Thunderwave, Charm Person and Charm Monster on the list. Whatever Yrden is I'm sure is something that already exists on the Ranger spell list. They get some alchemy related special abilities, which would...

If it was Planescape I was running as a DM, I'd insist that the majority of PCs be Planetouched (Tiefling, Aasimar, Genasi, and other more obscure types like Chaonds, Mechantrix or whatever) from Sigil or the other planes of existence or a planar species like Githzerai, Githyanki or Bariaur...

Comics on Kindle from major publishers like Marvel and DC are pricey, the price of those has been rising and a typical book has about 20 pages of content. It was $7 CAD for a major title. And those are items where it's almost all art on every page. One could argue that those DLC might be on par...

I don't think they need to bend over backwards to explain why there's some classes or species changes brought on by Edition changes in the most generic of the D&D settings. Those settings it's easy to adapt things since they were by their nature, quite generic. And what would be a 5e specific...

At least they got to showing different animal types for Rakshasa in the Monster Manual, after so many years of them defaulting to tigers.

Easy ones variants to depict are small bat-like wings or the cloven hoofs that were on a lot of Tieflings in 2e. Or only having tails or only just horns but not both. More subtle ones would be looking just having 6 fingers as a feature, as they are a lot of Tieflings that are descendants of...

So far the only the only place in 5e art where there's been different looking Tieflings has been in art related to Planescape, with one of them being from Diterlizzi and the other one of Factol Rhys.

Planescape Player book Planescape probably does need something a little more player focused maybe like that delayed Forge of the Artificer book. It can be a supplement to the existing PS Campaign setting like how Forge of the Artificer is supposed to be to Rising From the Last War. The player...

One thing that occurred to me with the Storm Herald Barbarian is what happens when you throw a 5 foot block of ice? It's completely doable at 6th level with the Storm Soul Tundra ability, even if it might not be a common thing that happens.

I think it also brings up something I expected when they changed the name of Monk subclasses to "Warrior of _______" it would definitely force a rename of some subclasses. Kensei will probably be affected by this naming change too.

Drunken style kung fu was about imitating drunkenness not actually being drunk. While the subclass has been about actually being drunk, so intoxication was probably a clarification on that

If Waterdeep is Toronto then how do people from Waterdeep pronounce Waterdeep? Asking from Neverwingter...

It's the reason I think the Seer should be a Monk-like Psion, with unarmed strike thrown in, though I think that might step on the Metamorph a bit.

The Oath of the Ancients has been pointed out by some as being the where the Warden Class of 4e (the Primal Defender) partially went to.

This isn't much different from all those who were claiming that all D&D is Planescape because it uses the Multiverse and the Great Ring Cosmology. Sigil has portals to all sorts of places in Toril and especially Faerun. An official 2e adventure module has the Modrons use a portal through...

So I guess you can cast (True) Resurrection spells with as a circle spell without the need for diamonds.
