Dark Sun! I have them!

[Crothian]

The books just arrived and I'm really digging these covers. Of course I'm already busy with getting things ready for Gen Con but now I get to read 4e Dark Sun!

OMGOD..

Tell something... anything...

 

[abyssaldeath]

Are you going to tell us anything or did you just want to brag? *I'm jealous*

Can you tell me anything about the Mule if you have the time?

 

[ourchair]

Thri-Kreen.

I must know more.

What are female Thri-Kreen like?

And more importantly, are they hot?

 

[doctorhook]

Don't waste time! It's been twenty-one minutes already, and you still haven't posted any details!

Defiling doesn't seem as cool as it used to be but it can still be powerful if you don't care about your friends. There is also a optional rule for each character to have a wild talent an at will psionic ability. There are ten written up and it includes a random table for them so that is a nice touch from 2e brought forward.

I'm completely bragging.

Mul encounter power: Incredible Toughness, end any on going damage, or stunned, dazed, slowed, or weakened condition effecting you.

They seem to be the tough race I remember.

Nothing really on gender distinctions and I'm not sure what a female thri-kreen looks like. The pictures could be either I guess.

Psionic Wild Talent optional rules. Tell me about them. Please.

*pulls a chair up the campfire and stares with rapt attention*

Edit: You pre-answered me. Thank you.

I'd seen the exact crunch for defiling in scattered previews all over teh webz, and I assume it's unchanged? Basically increase damage but deal damage to yr allies?

While it is sick, mechanically, in terms of how that compares to its actual fluff ("And plant life DIE while small animals cry baby tears as you cast lightning bolt!") the crunch is kind of lame, honestly, and I say that as someone who never played 2E.
