[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6131096, member: 22779"] What existing lore? A bit written in a book three editions ago? It's not core. The only people who would actually know this bit of monster lore are fans of a specific setting for a specific edition. There is no change to existing core lore about these creatures. In core, in any edition, Yugoloths don't hate gods. There is nothing about that in any core book. So, why are we forced to maintain lore from a specific setting? It's no different than a Dragonlance fan insisting that minotaurs must be sailors and pirates. We must not change minotaurs. Labyrinth dwelling minotaurs are no good, because they counter lore for a specific setting. What's the difference? Why do Planescape fans get to bring up their setting specific information and make claims over the flavour of different creatures, but, no other setting specific fan gets to do the same? God hating yugoloths are only seen in Planescape and in no other setting. Why would you not leave that in the specific setting? Why does the specific setting get to trump the general? [/QUOTE]
