D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

Actor and D&D superfan Joe Manganiello and Dragonlance co-author Tracy Hickman have both posted a cryptic image on their respective social medias showing themselves, along with Margaret Weis standing together in front of a large dragon statue at Wizards of the Coast's offices in Renton, Washington.

Hickman's image was accompanied by the words "Something is coming...", and in Manganiello's case "WE'RE BACK", to which Wizards of the Coast replied "Welcome back to the table!" A later photograph from Weis also included Laura Hickman and Dan Ayoub, who was named head of Dungeons & Dragons back in July of this year.

The posts have sparked speculation as to what they might mean, with guesses ranging from a revival of Manganiello's Dragonlance TV show project--which was no longer in development after he stated in February 2024 that "Dragonlance is not a property WotC are interested in developing further currently"--to a new Dragonlance-based D&D adventure.

Weis and Hickman co-wrote a new Dragonlance trilogy in recent years following a legal dust-up with Wizards of the Coast which was ultimately dismissed without prejudice, so it would seem that any bad blood from the dispute has been left in the past.

The question now remains--what are they all cooking up this time?

Kenders aren't kleptomaniacs in the sense we understand. The kleptomaniacs from the real life want to steal for the emotion of forbidden. The kenders don't understand so well the concept of private propierty. They are more compulsive collecters and that is part of the curse by the Gray Gem, maybe to molest the no-kenders.

If all the kenders share the same behavior then the joke loses the fun and it begins to become annoying. Let's say kenders aren't doing it alway, but everybody knows it happened more once, like the Spanish saying "I killed a cat and now I am called catkiller".

A little retcon of the kenders may be necessary to avoid the abuse of the stereotype.

Could be the tarmaks from Ithin’carthia (a subcontient) the Krynnian version of orcs?

Are krynnian half-ogres a goliath subrace?
