Today I’m hoping to repeat that trick, because it’s a lot of races. As a reminder, I’m doing as much line-by-line comparison to their earlier versions as I can, but I’m going to miss stuff. It’s okay to let me know. Part One: Aarakocra – Genasi | Part Two Githyanki The gith are a specific case of a race that might not need […]

If I have extra writing time, I may touch on a few monsters of note. This isn’t a review – Shawn has already written one of those. The short version of my review is that I am really into the lore, but I have Concerns about the direction that […]

This time, Mearls and Crawford bring us one elf subrace, the Eladrin; and the gith race with its two subraces. It’s a comparatively light release, but free as in beer and this is content that I care about. You know, what with the Planescape game that I’m playing in and – the way things are going – I might well need a backup […]

This month we get two new race options in a three-page PDF, the gith and the eladrin (which we first saw as an example subrace in the Dungeon Master’s Guide p. 286). The eladrin have a nice addition for Feywild backgrounds where you roll personality states (traits and flaws) based on the four seasons. I’m currently running a Nentir Vale campaign with eladrin as a race option. […]

They gained their prominence in the D&D pantheon for their fascinating origin and unique powers, as well as gracing the cover of the 1981 Fiend Folio. Though the history of the gith races and their link to the illithids (mind flayers) are described in the 5th ed Monster Manual, no […]
