[QUOTE="BB Shockwave, post: 9087947, member: 6799257"] Sure, but if it was "canon" as in, official, they would have referred to its stat blocks in later adventures. Or they would have been up on D&D Beyond. We mini collectors at Minisgallery also wondered whether Wizkids would make minis of them - after all that book had art and stats for Baalzebul, Cryonax, Sssendam and Mephistopheles too. But that never happened. WotC re-doing the Demodands clearly points to this book not really part of the rest of the releases. I am wondering if that group of Cranium Rats masquerading as a person isn't meant to be a sort of humanoid avatar for Many-as-One, the Cranium Rat gestalt entity? But maaan if they really erased Faction War from canon, I'd be ecstatic. I hated that book. The fact this book has 12 factions probably means this is true, since the Lady of Pain banished them from Sigil at the end of that adventure. That's not how I view it. IMHO anything that WotC themselves publishes is to me, canon. Any third party stuff like Kobold Press, isn't. Simple as that. I mean that's how things went in the previous 4 editions too, so I am using this logic and that's that. Given the size, and the fur, I'd say that is a Shator indeed! Looks pretty nice. Time Dragon looks pretty epic. A much needed upgrade from the 3E art that was just a striped White Dragon basically. I wonder if that Modron patrol marching through the weird fungal tunnel with that horned skull might not be in Ygorl's domain? Agreed that the floating empty armor-like creature could be a redesign of the Parai. The cute mouse-creature could be a new Guardinal. I mean, Pathfinder invented a few new ones too. The colorful Horses running under the Walking Castle are Nic'Epona! [/QUOTE]
