Message: <blockquote data-quote="Silverblade The Ench" data-source="post: 5226096" data-attributes="member: 19083">When Dark Sun came out, obviously they couldn't have enough critters to populate it ONLY form the 1st Dark Sun Monstrous Compendium, so it had a seleciton of suitable critters form other sources.In the "official timeline" which I Ignore and Loathing In New Tyr (tm) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />, many creatures were wiped out in genocidal wars.For me it came about cause of the illithids trying to darken the Sun, wars caused by psionics inspiring defiling, ecogolicla destruciton and rmapant mutation, etcfolk cna use whatever ideas they wish, for Athas' past and critter types <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Perosnally I think the devils etc are merely shut out since the apocalpyse, along with all other Astral travellers, a few maybe trapped here and there form ancient times, but realizing they are cut off from their home plane, if they get otu all they'd do is return there as their goal because they know death on Athas is a true final death due to no link to the Astral!Folk if they cna should get a look at the weird critters in the 3 Dark Sun monster compendiums, weird frog-lizard crossbreeds (Dagoran, iirc?) and all kinds of horrors, muhaha.Re-skinnning works fine, BUT, Dark Sun critters are always nastier/stranger than before.</blockquote>
