    D&D General Thoughts about Purple Dragon Knights

    All the old lore is still valid. The dragon stuff has only occurred in-universe in the last few years. I'm sure there are plenty of PDK classic still around.

    A Deep Dive into Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun

    There's a whole side bar on that deities do not have defined gender, but due to the Time of Troubles and other godly manifestations, people of Fauerûn often still gender their deities.

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Not everything. But like 90 - 95%, though.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ed Greenwood to Publish 4 New Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks in 2026

    I would think the stirge encounter would be seen as nothing more than humorous.

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Halruaa at least has an arrow showing the direction it is on the poster map.

    D&D 5E (2024) GMs: How long should it usually take to go from level 1 to 4?

    This! I find the ingrained rush to get to T2 a just expected these days, when there are interesting stories that can be told even at Level 1. I always tell my groups we'll be taking a bit longer to level through T1 (although not excessively so!) to enjoy what those levels can offer.

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Interesting. There's a random reference to a "Shou district" in Westgate on Page 182 (as the source of many of the members of the Nine Golden Swords crime syndicate. I don't think the Shou have been mentioned elsewhere at all in either book.

    D&D General *Hobbits* in a late-80s AD&D product

    LOL, it's actually a rakshasa in disguise, appearing to be in danger so the party will chase after it. It's in Myth Drannor.

    D&D General *Hobbits* in a late-80s AD&D product

    A "hobbit" makes an appearance the 1989 game Curse of the Azure Bonds, even though halfling characters are possible and there's an important halfling (named as such) earlier in the game.

    Glad to hear you're doing this!

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    All that's needed for Planescape is a follow-up Manual of the Planes type book, and at that point, coverage is pretty complete. It seems that the vast majority of people knew that there simply wouldn't be a way to do complete, full, in-depth coverage without a book that would need a wheelbarrow...

    D&D General Forgotten Realms: Real World Gods Still Present in the Old Empires

    The various mentions of the various Mulan deities wasn't in any organized manner; it was much more off-handedly. Also Isis and Osiris weren't mentioned either, and they should have been. It was all very ad hoc.

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's dream up new FR-style books for other Settings.

    We kind of need a sister thread to this one: "What areas should Adventures in Faerun II: Elminster Boogaloo cover in detail?" I've often stated that Cormyr should have gotten in-depth coverage in this book, as well as Thay. Let's hope it does well enough that we can get a sequel covering...

    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    The only mentions of anything outside of Faerun proper by name that I've found so far is a mention of the Hordelands. Granted, there's a lot of reading to be done.
