[QUOTE="Weiley31, post: 7979612, member: 7017196"] Well in my games, Tabaxi aren't JUST people sized cats, but instead they can also LITERALLY look like small sized housecats and all. Walking around on all fours with all the cattitude of cats. Tabaxi just seems to be the name they all agree upon as a Parliament. The Sorceresrs of Tabaxi are also known as Grimalkins. The Druidic faith of the Old Ways revere two aspects of Nature: Mother Gaia and Sister Luna. Of course Mother Gaia encompasses nature while Sister Luna governs/takes in the Lycanthropes as her own children. Father Sky existed [I]at one point[/I] but is no longer "around" or seen as important as Gaia or Luna. When a Druid undertakes the rite to determine which Circle they will join, they go into a deep slumber and dream. Within this "dream" they find themselves within a vision where they are in total blackness. The only light seems to come from either the Moon with a Maiden stretching her hand out to grab, or the sunlight from a small patch of land. Taking the Maiden's hand appoints the Druid as a member of The Circle of Moon while attuning to the patch of land commits a Druid to the Circle of Land. A Druid can can go back and forth between the two before making a choice. Sometimes the Druid can choose to continue going deeper into this dream like state, perhaps unlocking/finding rarer Circles. Sometimes, unique manifestations may occur. Like suppose if the trees of the land patch suddenly caught on fire, and the Druid chose to "confront" the blaze within instead of running towards the Moon.... Devils are still refered to as Baatezu and demons T'anari in 5E. Driders use their 4E lore info. PC Gnolls use Eberron/4E Lore while evil Gnolls use 5E lore. The Gloaming Courts is another name for the Unseelie Courts and Summer Courts for the Seelie as well. Orcus, for whatever the reason, talks with a Monster/distorted version of a Boston/Mafioso style accent. Or the voice of the Baby from [I]Who Framed Roger Rabbit.[/I] And calls anything/anybody he DOESN'T like or begrudgingly a "Schlep Head" which is some archaic demon term that is the equivalent of being called a dick head. Jubilex enjoys tormenting Zuggtmoy for the lulz more and somewhat considers her more as a [I]"roommate"[/I] while taking over half of her own layer. Basically, think Mr. Wilson and Dennis the Menace. Needless to say, Zuggtmoy ain't happy bout it all but she can't do jack after that whole Temple of Elemental Evil stint she went through. And if she can't figure out what to do bout it, she won't have a layer to call her own. Archons still exist. Negative level effects are treated as Exhaustion. The Raven Queen's [I]station[/I] of covering death is composed of her, Myrkul, and Jergal. Jergal is seen as the older/veteran [I]book keeper[/I] and The Raven Queen views Myrkul as [I]DAT[/I] one co-worker you can't stand at your job and dislikes the whole Dead Three to begin with. Kelevmor is The Raven Queen's direct Supervisor/Store Manager. [/QUOTE]
