Message: <blockquote data-quote="Morrus" data-source="post: 8343398" data-attributes="member: 1">Todd Kenrick posted a video summarizing a press conference which listed many of the things you need to know about The Wild Beyond the Witchlight. The video is below, but I've bullet-pointed the key items if you can't watch it right now.[ATTACH=full]140620[/ATTACH]<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Witchlight carnival is a mirror of the carnival in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. Shadar Kair are in charge of the feywild carnival and someone else in charge of the Ravenloft carnival. If these two carnivals meet the ownership shifts again and it is part of the plot that Mr Witch and Mr Light do not want to trade the carnival back.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The carnival will go to multiple worlds. Inspiration actually came from things like Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes; Mr Light is a reflection of Mr Dark from that movie.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">There's a map of the  Witchlight  carnival laid out like an amusement park map.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Time is a component of the adventure. Time moves very differently in the feywild and the shadowfell. Expect time hijinks!</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Witchlight carnival is a way of getting into the feywild itself.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">There are domains much like the dread domains but these are called domains of delight. Each is controlled by an archfey that has power over each of these domains.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Some art included the Palace of Hearts of Desire, and they showed a treant called Little Oak who has a tree house built into his back and children live in that tree house, plus a displacer beast kitten named Star.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">This adventure will be a very light hearted. Any challenge in this book can be solved with combat but also in a non violent way. Talking your way out of things etc.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The carnival has attractions and  NPCs like a mermaid, a mime named kendlefoot, a Kenku that's up to to to to no good. Also classic characters from the D&D animated series. On the map there is a rollercoaster identical to the rollercoaster in the intro to D&D the animated series. This can imply that that entire amusement park was the Witchlight carnival in disguise.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Playtesters loved the game you can play in the carnival.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">There's 'custard damage'.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Player options include new backgrounds. The Feylost and Witchlight Hand. Plus the fairy and herangon (rabbit folk) races.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Warduke, Strongheart, and Kellek from the cartoon.</li> </ul>[MEDIA=youtube]S1mVEH2mvh8[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
