Stream of Annihilation Preview - DINOSAURS!

Not only did Chris Perkins pretty much confirmed that the product codenamed "Dust" is the one which Pendleton Ward was involved with (see below), but WotC's Greg Tito also confirms that the weekend-long live stream will feature the main announcement right at the beginning with a preview of a piece of art featuring.... dinosaurs! The video below features that art, as well as Tito talking about the various celebrities who will be attending (and starring in) the event.

Sure, sure. Maztica is the easy answer. But if we're ignoring the sensible and obvious we'd instead mention that they also show up on Athas and Krynn

Where do Aarakocra come from? Hmmm, I wonder?

Well, when a mommy aarakocra and a daddy aarakocra love each other very much...


You know, in this case "a stork brings them" isn't actually very far from the truth!

Halflings, riding Barbarians, would be an excellent combat platoon.

Some of them settled in The Mistcliffs in Chult. So this could be another indication that Chult is the location.

On the latest podcast they talked tot a few people of the Yogscast who will be on the stream.
They talked a bit about the new campaign they will start.

They say iy wil be on the new world that will be introduced duuring the stream, and het corected by Greg teling thema it is in the forgotten realms.
The characters are from waterdeep,one of them is a archioligist , and the campaign will have q heavy Indiana Jones deal about it

So I decided to search Chult on the D&D website. It linked to this page updated today: http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/girls-guts-glory-stream-annihilation

The page now lists the following in a sort of "bibliography": Mezro and Ubtao, Faiths and Pantheons, Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide (4th Edition), Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (3rd Edition), Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Revised (2nd Edition), Powers & Pantheons, The Grand History of the Realms, The Jungles of Chult, The Ring of winter.

So ya, this is a Chult adventure!

Yeah, that certainly narrows it down!

Ubtao was detailed in Powers and Pantheons, so I'm wondering why Faiths and Avatars is listed as a reference. Artus Cimber is the Chosen of Auril now, right? That may explain the reference as Auril was detailed in the latter book...

EDIT: Never mind, misread Faiths and Pantheons (a 3e book which did indeed cover Ubtao) for Faiths and Avatars (a 2e book which didn't cover Ubtao - as stated its companion Powers and Pantheons did).
