D&D 5E WotC to increase releases per year?

Gorelik was the original gnoll deity before Yeenoghu got involved.

That is lore, not how it was originally presented. These are from the Yeenoghu entries in the Monster Manual and Deities & Demigods for AD&D1e. I also have an issue with Gorelik as it is a Jewish surname used to present a rather pathetic deity. Gorelik was first described in Monster Mythology for 2e 12 years after Deities & Demigods and 15 years after the Monster Manual. Also... Gorelik... still Chaotic Evil.

And that is the definition of marginalizing people

I never said it was a good thing. It's just reality. In addition, there are some people that will take offense no matter what is done. I'm sure some people are still offended by devils and demons in a game.

I wonder if some of the adventures will get a boxed set? Or be a boxed set?

Oh I didn't think you were, I was just pointing out that it's exactly that that marginalizes people, like when someone on here recently portrayed my religion as a hedonistic orgy of drugs and sex. It's not.

Ooooh I'd buy Princes of the Apocalypse in a box. I also could see them tweaking Tomb of Annihilation to remove whatever missteps they made like they did Strahd.

Hmmm I wonder

I will say, if you want older mods in a box buy one of the boxes of Curse of Strahd. Either WotCs or B&Gs.

Gorellik

My guess is that the name originally was a play on the word "gore" and any resemblance to any real word name is coincidental. At least I hope so.

To sort of veer back toward the original topic of the thread

The gall!

I would as well but these days no one really thinks about that eh? ;-)

Ehhhhh. Not really interested in STrahd and B&Gs out of the acceptable price range my wife wouldn't commit homicide over.
