Third-party D&D creators, are you comfortable including bastion-compatible material in upcoming 5.5E products given that it wasn't included in the new SRD?

My therapy assignment over the past few days was to have a conversation with someone I've never talked with before and I'm failing it very hard.

Hello. I spoke with James Wyatt about Dragon Delves and more specifically about what a solo adventure looks like in D&D.

Just passed 60,000 words. My mind has been a bit of mess over the past few days, but I'm trying very hard to get this novel wrapped up before I start working full time again.

Christian Hoffer @choffercbus.bsky.social · Mar 26

LOL make that 40,000 words. Being unemployed gives you time to write novels apparently.

Christian Hoffer @choffercbus.bsky.social · Mar 21

A small personal update: I've written 20,000 words on my novel draft since the 1st of this year.

Today I retire from Wizards of the Coast after 28 years. With D&D’s 50th anniversary wrapping up and the revised rulebooks doing gangbusters, this is the perfect fairytale ending for me. I can’t wait to enjoy D&D purely as a fan again, knowing the game is in good hands. See you in the Feywild!

When Paizo says "Runelords," my ears perk up. Give us the full AP trilogy in 2E form.

My cursory thoughts on the Sigil news today. A botched project from start to finish, although the loss of jobs is very unfortunate and unnecessary.

Has Wizards of the Coast Given Up on Sigil?

Sigil seems destined to a slow, spiraling demise after layoffs hit the team overseeing the project. Overnight, news broke that approximately 90% of the team responsible for building Sigil, Wizards of ...

If you are a Wizards employee or former Wizards employee that has insight into the launch of Sigil and the subsequent dismissal of most of its team, please reach out.
