Message: <blockquote data-quote="TwinBahamut" data-source="post: 3689921" data-attributes="member: 32536">Well, here are my eight, I guess...1)A Fey Book   Rather than making this a monster book, or something like the Draconomicon, it would focus on trying to convey the feel of old fey stories, and the author would be required to sit down and read some before starting. Would contain rules for turning classic fey creatures like elves and trolls into proper fey, would have "otherworld" rules, and would focus on making fey seem less like strange forest creatures, and more like the mischevious, inhuman, and possibly dangerous spirits they classically are. It would perhaps help brindge the odd gap made in D&D between western faerie stories and eastern spirit stories (which are almost identical, if you don't make an artificial east/west division).2)The Farmer Boy's Guide to Giant-Killing   This is a giant book, written from the perspective of a guy like Jack the Giant-Killer (for those who don't know, after Jack killed the giant from the top of the beanstalk, he went on to kill several more, and became one of the Knights of the Round Table). In other words, it is a guide to kiling giants through trickery and cuning, exploiting their pride and greed, rather than through brute power.3)The Young Hero's Guide to Dragon-slaying and Damsel-saving   Like the above, except based on classic dragon-slaying fairy-tales, like Beowulf or the story of the slaying of Fafnir. Perhaps a reimagining of dragons in which a single warrior can actually fight one.4-6 would probably be other books in the same series as the first three, re-imagining different ways to use old creatures, based on classic myths. Genies, magical beasts, and evil spell-casters, maybe?7)Tome of Magic 2   More new ways of casting magic! This time, with better balance and less assumptions of and alterations to existing cosmology.8)Tome of Battle 2   More new ways of fighting! This time, with a higher page count.</blockquote>
