D&D 5E (2014) Which non-Realmsian setting for you?

[Greg K]

My first choices are : Al Qadim (my hysterical setting you forgot vote), Darksun, Ravenloft
I also want to see: Birthright, Council of Wyrms, Greyhawk, Mystara, Rokugan

Personally, I have no interest in Eberron, Ghostwalk, Jakandor, Planescape, or Spelljammer, but Eberron, Planescape, and Spelljammer will all probably get priority over all or most of those I want to see.

I voted Spelljammer, it is an amazing mind-opener. And Dragonlance, because it could still be made awesome.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who remembers Pelinore. I still have my set of Imagine magazines - not complete, alas.

I only have a couple of issues and an adventure collection (?) but it's a great setting!

Who now owns Pelinore? I recall GM Pubs using it, but was that under license?

Dark Sun and Eberron for me. I missed out on the 4th Edition Dark Sun reboot, so it's been a long time for me, and I always thought the setting was really interesting.

Then again, I do NOT like a few of the changes, such as <fights off a conniption> the medium sized "Thri-Kreen" and "Half-Giants". Those races should be LARGE (and in charge)! I don't care if it makes them so powerful that they're unfit to be PCs. In 3E terms, I'd be happy if Half-Giants were Hill Giants with a propensity for psionic wild talents. Big, dumb walls of flesh who do whatever the templars tell them to do.

Is this the complete set?

That's also something that greatly annoys me. Some of us do want to play large characters, and not just kinda big but *LARGE*!

I'm hoping they fix that particularly bit of design choice in this edition.

Sadly, 5E Thri-Kreen already exist as medium-sized antfolk with tiny butt-pods. They could have been Large, with rules similar to those that centaurs use WRT size of weapons used (assuming 5E retained that).

Half-Giants still have hope.

I originally voted "Greyhawk" but the more I think about it the more I'd like to see a setting like Rokugan.
