[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9307394, member: 6802378"] The question is 5e has been desgined to be flexible, modular, to allow all possible changes by the players, but DS is too limited for the current standars. I can say there are new sentient species in Athas thanks reincarnation spell, but extinct ethnic groups could reappear thanks this. Maybe this is possible in Tyr after Kalak's death (and some others in the Pentad Prism books) because when it happened they were sacrificed by order of the king-sorcerers. If changes are not allowed in DS, then this is like a static snow globe where you only can watch. Or the "secret" faction of [ISPOILER]the City of Spires ruled by the lich Trith[/ISPOILER] (from the Black Spine module) could have conquered the rest of the crimson sphere/Athasphere. Or maybe the ruler of the Galanaki city has become a dark lady. In my DS not always the dead sentient creatures become only undead, lots of times they become elementals or even fey. Maybe the Athasian tablelands we know has been chosen by enemy factions of chronomancers because if it is a dessert zone then the risk of collateral damages or atrackting too much antention is lower. In my opinion the Athasian Tablelands are relatively "small" for current standars if you want campaigns without direct contact or conflicts against the king-sorcerers, and more in the highest levels. Too linked to the main metaplot, and previous experience with other titles shows this may be a serious handicap. It would be really ironic a heavenly Athas as demiplane where blue and green age could coexist together thanks floating islands by carvorite mineral. This would be like a Tantalus' torture, with all those vegetation they can't eat with their defirler magic. [/QUOTE]
