[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 7858539, member: 6802378"] Somebody said Athas is a demiplane out of prime material plane, it is isolated. The canon says nothing about the "crimson sphere", and this is only fan-art. And it is harder to add new things, as classes. Dragonlance is awesome as novels, but for TTRPG is harder when all the prominence is for the heroes of the lance, and family. Other matter is if the chronomancers come back to 5th Ed, Krynn could be the main "victim", with fans creating their own parallel timelines, and maybe this would be right. The cover of Wild Elves by Brom inspires me a crossover between Krynn and Athas in an alternative timeline where the world of Dragonlance is suffering an apocalypse by the defilers from Athas (and maybe Chaos is the responsible). * Ravenloft needs a sourcebook about Vladantilan, a land in the material plane rule by vampyres (living vampires) and home by Vladimir Luzig. I think if dark powers want to create a zombie apocalypse this will be the main candidate to suffer it. Even I suggest this could be caused by PCs to avoid other zones with more innocent people could suffer that horrible fate. Sometimes I have imagined a urban dark fantasy, with [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcology']arcologies[/URL] (super skyscrapers) but with a noir-punk look, as Tim Burton's Batman movies. Here the psionics were superheroes and supervillains, but there were attacked by unknown creatures from the far realm. When these died dropped a poisonous gas, and then the psionics become mad, psychopaths. (yes, I am plagiarizing the comic "Leaving Megalopolis"). But isn't terrifying when famous superheroes (or ersatz) become monsters? When the temptation of mixing Ravenloft and White Wolf's World of Darkness is too strong, I imagine dark powers tainting, invading, infecting an "outlander" world as 7th Sea or Gothic Earth. This would allow so many supernatural factions. Have you thought about how could be a race of living constructs (as warforged or shardminds) in Ravenloft? Maybe somebody wanted to create half-golems, or survived when a living carrionette tried a soul transference but with secondary effects, or created by Easan the mad. Maybe created as canon fodder because undeads can't eat or infect constructs. * After the success of Games of Thrones and getting ready for a second season of the Witcher and Elric of Melnibone also is going to be adapted to the screen I dare to say live-action adaptation of some D&D franchises has the open doors, but they need a really good story. * My (new) suggestion for WotC and Hasbro is to create a fantasy world but set in the atomic age, with a panzer-punk look (fantasy WWII), because a fictional enemy as the Cobra-la alien empire is more politically correct than Japanese or Russian armies in the second world war.
