Dark Sun Pterran Info

[Voadam]

What 2e Dark Sun products detail the Pterran?

I'm playing one in a pbp based off the athas.org stuff but I'm looking for a little more info on the race for inspiration.

Thanks

There is not too much information on the race in the published 2e material, unfortunately. The Revised & Expanded Campaign Setting has the most details on them, but they also had an entry in the Terrors of the Desert Monstrous Compendium. Additionally, there is a small amount of intro in Windriders of the Jagged Cliffs, detailing the pterrans of that region. You might also want to take a look at the fan project Pterrans of the Hinterlands - it's an old 2e look at the pterrans with a few nuggets here and there worth lifting. A 3e version of this is apparently in the works.

In addition, you should look at the DRAGON magazine reissue of DARK SUN - they have a 3.5e Pterran that's pretty cool, if you drop the psionics (I don't like the idea of seperate races gaining access to different psionics).

Didn't they also appear in the Dark Sun Monstrous Compendium (the hole-punched sheets that you put in your binder)?

That's the "Terror of the Desert" thing Mark mentioned.
