    This article has been updated to include recent aarakocra appearances in the Spelljammer and Planescape sets, as well as—of course!—cover Councillor Jarnathan from the D&D movie.

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Fraternity of Shadows (a reliable Ravenloft fan site) has it listed as for level 4-7.

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    I'm thinking you answered one of your own questions there. I strongly suspect that Lost Mine of Phandelver will easily make the cut for the top 50 adventures of all-time list.

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    Your understanding of "retread of a previous adventure" is clearly slightly broader than mine, which is fine. That still leaves at least Lost Mine of Phandelver, Out of the Abyss, Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus, Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden, Candlekeep...

    D&D General Monster ENCyclopedia: Peryton

    After a more than six year gap, this article has been updated, as follows: All the new fifth edition appearances of the peryton have been added. All the missing images have been rescanned and added back in, along with nearly a dozen new pictures from various sources. A handful of additional...

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    If it helps, that's about what I got when I looked at this again for the first time in ±14 years :D

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    Here we go, bear in mind that this was first posted on ENWorld way back in 2010. This was the first of eight trivia quizzes. I'll repost the others if there is any interest. Do you have a good memory for obscure Dungeons & Dragons facts and names, or an encyclopedic knowledge of D&D history...

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    Yes. Way back in 2010, I did a series of D&D trivia quizzes. They were multiple choice, but extremely difficult. I still have them somewhere, let me go check.

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    I get that you aren't a 5e fan, but saying that 5e has added nothing to lore or cosmology is hyperbole; 5e has contributed plenty to the collective body of D&D lore. Like 4e, 5e isn't shy about adding new lore that contradicts past lore, but it is less egregious than 4e in that regard, and often...

    D&D General D&D Red Box: Who Is The Warrior?

    For those in the thread stating that everybody knew that figure was a male, I didn't. I had always assumed that was a female warrior. I realize that I'm in a minority, but I am proof that a non-zero number of people interpreted the original art in a different way to the artist's intent.

    D&D 5E Vecna: Eve of Ruin's Table of Contents Leaked (Spoilers!)

    Here is the relevant paragraph from the Repercussions section of Die, Vecne, Die!: Some Outer Planes drift off and are forever lost, others collide and merge, while at least one Inner Plane runs ”aground” on a distant world of the Prime. More-over, the very nature of the Prime Material Plane...

    WotC Hasbro Has Invested $1B In Video Games, Including A New D&D Game

    This one is an interesting example when it comes to microtransactions. It has heaps of paid content. Some of the paid content makes it easier to progress faster in the game (inasmuch as anyone progresses in a clicker game). Despite this, it is entirely possible to play the game without spending...

    D&D 5E D&D Beyond: No More À La Carte Purchases But US Customers Can Buy Physical Books

    I was supposed to attend a workshop on dealing with misinformation last week, but the organizers gave me the wrong address. Bad-dum tish. I'll see myself out.

    D&D 5E D&D Beyond: No More À La Carte Purchases But US Customers Can Buy Physical Books

    Thanks, that's good to know. I'm now glad I didn't waste 17+ minutes watching that video!
