    We are a Dungeons and Dragons documentary. We interview the creators of D&D and people in the DnD community. Every week we post new videos on how D&D gets made and tips and tricks on being a player and a Dungeon Master. This show is made possible by the amazing Dungeons & Dragons community and by our subscribers on Patreon.
    A wickedly whimsical adventure for the world’s greatest roleplaying game.
    SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES
    Once every eight years, the fantastic Witchlight Carnival touches down on your world, bringing joy to one settlement after the next. Its owners, Mister Witch and Mister Light, know how to put on a good show. But there’s more to this magical extravaganza than meets the eye!
    The carnival is a gateway to a fantastic Feywild domain unlike anything found on the Material Plane. Time has not been kind to this realm, however, and dark days lie ahead unless someone can thwart the dastardly schemes of the Hourglass Coven.
    The Wild Beyond the Witchlight™ takes adventurers from the Witchlight Carnival to Prismeer, a Feywild domain of delight, and is designed for characters of levels 1-8. This book comes with a poster map that shows the carnival on one side and Prismeer on the other.
    • This is the first official Dungeons & Dragons® adventure set primarily in the Feywild, the Plane of Faerie.
    • The Witchlight Carnival, which serves as the means by which the characters enter the Feywild, can be dropped easily into any campaign setting.
    • Players can create characters using one of two new races presented in this adventure, faeries and the harengon (rabbit folk).
    • Two new character backgrounds are included: the Feylost (for characters who grew up in the Feywild) and the Witchlight Hand (for characters who work at the Witchlight Carnival).
    • All encounters in the adventure include a non-combat option, allowing players to think and roleplay their way through the adventure if they wish.
    • The adventure features the return of Warduke, Strongheart, Kelek and other classic D&D characters from the 1980s.
    For use with the fifth edition Player’s Handbook®, Monster Manual®, and Dungeon Master’s Guide®.

    “Used to be…?” The air grows cold around Todd as he realizes that mists start to creep at his back, as Chris burns embers into his very soul for his transgression.

      The shadows grow longer, and flickering within those creeping shadows Todd catches the faintest glimmer of amber.

    My very first game of D&D played in the summer of 1979 we encountered Leprechauns and one of the fighters drew his sword to try to intimidate it for its gold, only to have it polymorphed into a venomous serpent. He nearly died as the tiny men giggled their delight. I was the cleric, and had to decide if saving my party member would get me on the little pest's bad side... I ended up saving the fighter. I remember thinking how crazy it felt that these fey creatures were just having fun and were simultaneously deadly. Ever since that first game I've really wanted to return to the fey... and sadly subsequent versions of D&D have just ignored it... til now. Super excited!!

    I can't wait to see the Heroes of the Demiplane visit here, I hope TJStorm returns as Keen, and also the Todd Bowie Archfey as well, maybe we can get Todd Lord of Darkness next with Todd in costume for the stream. There could even be a special crossover with the Mighty Niens Jester, Fyord, and Artagen.

    I wish this book was out now! Our D&D campaign just went to the fey wild. One of the PCs is looking for his father, an elf who crossed over from the fey wild to the prime material plane during a battle, where he went raping and pillaging leaving a bastard half-elf son in his wake. This PC wishes to "confront" his father (he's out for revenge). The whole campaign is based on Terry Pratchett's Discworld, in which elves come from the fey wild and can only cross over if somebody opens a portal from the prime material side - which a few young witches did accidentally in the book Lords and Ladies.

    We once played a campaign in a modern setting that featured the fae heavily and there was a big focus on the rules, specifically the one of hospitality. We once stumbled into the realm of a winter fae and she demanded reparations for this intrusion. We were stuck fulfilling favours until we actually managed to overpay so badly that we gained a permanent ally in her.
    This book sounds like a real cool way to get back into that sort of campaign.^^

    I’m excited about the two new playable races. However, does the Faery race cover playing Pixies and Sprites?

    • @michaelfinnerty7240
      @michaelfinnerty7240 2 роки тому +1

      I believe that you can decide if your fairy is a brownie, pixie, sprite, ect. Whether they are mechanical differences like subraces for Fairy or just flavor text remains to be seen.

    • @NA-vz9ko
      @NA-vz9ko 2 роки тому

      It seems like the new Fairy pc race is it’s own species. Players can play as Pixies and Sprites by having them take sidekick levels.

      It is in 5e. I don't think it was in 2nd edition when it was created, since there really wasn't a Shadowfell then.

    When Chris refers to domains here, are they like Planes in the D&D sense? If not, how is a domain different than a Plane?

    • @LdyVder
      @LdyVder 2 роки тому

      Domains of dread are in the Shadowfell, they are pockets of the Shadowfell. Domain of delight would be the same. Pockets of the Feywild ran by someone specific.
