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So does anyone have access to this book yet or are we all making assumptions based on outdated info and innuendo?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

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?

The wizard class is already right there...

Can I take a second to point out that the Ten Towns lore has been recycled three times (Legacy, Rime, and now Adventures in Faerun) and people have griped about that, and yet when they go and change things people gripe about that too?

Unless you are paying me to play in your game, I'm there to have fun. Good luck finding those hardcore players.

I have found my players, as time and work and family have become more and more important, have greatly paired back their time outside of game. Probably the only two who do any sort of outside prep are both also DMs. The amount of prep most of them do now consists of remembering to bring their...
