D&D General New WOTC racism allegations regarding Hadozee and Spelljammer

Gack! Where is that personality one from. I didn't see that in the spelljammer Adventurer's guide or Menagerie. :-/

According to the pinned comment on the Youtube video, it's from "an earlier book," which I think means it's from a UA playtest file?

It's from the Forgotten Realms Wiki. So, not 5e lore.

As far as I can tell, the slavery thing is all new lore. I'm not sure what the person that wrote that thought it added.

No, some of what's in the OP is pulling from an old war Wiki. 5E SJ softened the situation...but kept way too much.

It's on the Forgotten Realms wiki, and the source is Stormwrack, a 3.5-era book from 2005. There's nothing at all like that in the recent Spelljammer release.

Deleted.

well, this is going to be unpleasant for them, we going to get a product recall or something?

Maybe some Errata.

Looks like the personality stuff is from the forgotten realms wiki and taken from 3rd Ed Stormwrack, not the new Spelljammer

Wow. I noticed this on twitter and at first I thought it was just bad form to have a race that has a slavery narrative. But looking at parts of the description people are posting...wow. This is Nu-TSR level stuff...

Niye that the really weird stuff in the second post is from a Wiki, not the new book. That's old lore, the Unhukan War comes up nowhere in this set.

Wow, still WotC era...yikes.
