"Elves are kinda put on a pedestal. Like, across fantasy..." Me: *thinks of Dragon Age* Oh... Oh no...

[@psoren423]

Would love to play a Gith”Y” as a swashbuckling murder mayhem dude.

[@conor4142]

[@TheBackwardsSong]

New fast intro is great.

[@Thedungeoncast]

Thanks!

The fun thing with the Githyanki silver swords is that random squadrons of Githyanki will keep turning up *forever* to try and get the sword back and murder you. It seems like a sweet piece of loot when you first pick it up, and you won't be able to detect any negative magic on it, but it might as well be a cursed item for all the trouble it's gonna cause you.

[@InquisitorThomas]

Danielle Clarke While that’s true it could provide a potentially be a catalyst to a whole adventure revolving around the Githyanki, what could of started as you killing a handful of Githyanki Warriors led by a Githyanki Knight could lead to a full fledged invasion of whatever your PC’s base is by the Githyanki who are looking for the lost silver sword.

Remember that time 4 years ago when we wondered if anyone cared about WotC publishing?

[@drragoon83]

Volo has stats in Tomb of Annihilation, I love this book but it still needed more monsters. And 4e's Raven Queen and Shadar Kai are the true origins, if you ask me.

[@sakisaotome6753]

Shawn Johnson 4e is the origin of the Raven Queen bit the shadar Kai were introduced in 3e as generic Fae creatures

[@shamusfarmer]

So can elves sell their souls to devils? What are the implications of that!?

[@brewskie]

Loving the Goofy movie shirt. Excited to see what this book contains!

[@belainegibsson.2082]

So my local store actually had this book a week or so before the official release date, and I'm kicking myself for not picking it up.

[@InquisitorThomas]

When are you going do to an entire episode on the single greatest creature I’ve ever seen, the Giff?

[@brewskie]

They are pretty sweet so the video should be good as well. +1 Int with +2 Str or Wis depending on the sub race. Lot of fun to be had with some of the feats as well.

[@thezerowulf2046]

Bruce Bywaters I think he meant the hippo people not the Gith.

[@Concherto]

That spread on Zuggtmoy is beautiful. I want to find a way to get her in my game.

[@MrRazielsBeast]

and for players who don't want to buy the entire book for the player side of things can buy it on DnD beyond for like 1/3 of the Price 9$ but else i don't recommend it for players.

[@GreenLanternCorps2814]

I don't understand why so many people say "Dritzz." It's "Drizzt," the T is at the end.

[@sakisaotome6753]

I have to disagree that the Raven Queen conversion was a corporate action. The guys over there really like her and have been wanting to include her for some time now. But your ad you said the realms already has the gods. So they had to find a way to for her in since they're so focused on using the realms add the default. But one thing they have stressed is that they these are mythology not facts. So take the shadar Kai in 3e they were generic Fae monsters. Then on. 4e they became human off shoots from the shadowfel now they are elves. Which is right? Well mordy seems to think they're elves. Also though she is technically not a god she's on par with the lady of pain. Who has the will and power to declare no gods may come to her sigil. She she may not be a god, but she is definitely god-like

[@leeroyjenkins552]

Isn't Mordenkainen a greyhawk native? So doesn't his inclusion as the titular character mean this book should be written from a greyhawk perspective?
