Take A Look At The DUERGAR From SCAG

The D&D Extra Life campaign just passed $90,000 -- which means another preview from Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide (which released last week in preferred stores, and will be available everywhere else from November 3rd). This time, we get a look at the Duergar entry! If they hit $100K, we get to see the hi-res labeled map of the northwest portion of Faerün, from Amn to Icewind Dale and the Moonshae Isles to the Dalelands.

Previous previews include the Preface, Contents Page, Greenflame Blade cantrip, and Urban Bounty Hunter, and the Mastermind, a new rogue archetype.

More on Extra Life here.

Meh.

For the nobody wondering, the 4e duergar was based on the Durzagon, which was an already established (~1983 says the internet) mixing of dwarves (duergar) and devils, particularly barbazu (bearded devils), because yeah, apparently poisonous beard quills is a thing.

So many worlds, so many silly stories

 

[Jefe Bergenstein]

Does it seem inappropriate to you that a group of alien creatures with powerful mental powers would enslave a bunch of races?

Heh, it seems inappropriate that they are so crappy at actually *keeping* them as slaves. Or maybe they have slave ADD. They get one race bred, and then along comes a shiny new toy, and they forget to lock the cages.

How does one "rise against" mind flayers, again?

Through a robust maintenance and broad interpretation of the second amendment!

;o)

How does one "rise against" mind flayers, again?

Ask the Ur-Quan. It isn't pleasant.

(Yes, I know they really rose up against hypnotoads, but still.)

Personally, I kind of want to play a campaign during the height of the Mind Flayer Empire. I think that could be pretty fun.
