In the original Gwaeron Windstrom holy symbol, there was an “S” behind the paw and star. Over the years, the “S” disappeared. What was the “S”? Did it represent a winding trail or something else? #Realmslore Thanks Yes, it represents a winding trail, but also a stream (Gwaeron could track creatures who waded along a shallow stream to try to hide their scent from trackers) and the winds (Gwaeron could catch scents on the wind). Its use faded because mortals can't do these things.#Realmslore

Just converted a magic item that can cast Haste
Just converted a magic item that can cast haste. Thinking about it, haste doesn't get used much in 5e in my games. It's a good spell! It's weird, it used to be pretty popular in older editions.

I think it’s popularity in 3e/PF has more to do with that system taking all the negatives away from it, some of which 5e put back.It was also so good in 3.0 that it had to be nerfed in 3.5, where it was still amazing.

I think it’s less that players found ways around it and more that it didn’t really matter practically. The stun thing matters, especially if the caster loses concentration.

Does the monk Way of the Astral Self looks like a Kalashtar/Quori/Inspired thing?
A new UNEARTHED ARCANA is here! Our latest playtest material brings you two mystical subclass options, one for the barbarian and one for the monk Hey @HellcowKeith, is it me or does the monk subclass here look like a Kalashtar/Quori/Inspired thing?
— Thomas Keene @ koboldskeep (@koboldskeep) August 15, 2019
It’s definitely a great choice for a Kalashtar PC, with the astral self being a manifestation of the Quori spirit… sort of like the 3.5 Quori nightmare prestige class.

“And now the horses thunder hard across the field “
And now the horses thunder hard across the field
And now the trumpeters blow martial tune
And now amid unhorsings is shattered many a shield
And now the dead lie still, awaiting the pitiless moon— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 3, 2019
See, now, in the depths of my seeing-glass
They ride grim and silent in a shadowed land
And through its many-tombed heart of malice pass
Yet never escape the reach of my sorcerous hand— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 3, 2019
A rising count of lands have lost their lord
With jaws and talons I have them slain
Then breathed fire, to leave but ashes and a sword
For them to cherish in fear and grief and pain— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 4, 2019
