"I can talk about Complete Arcane a little, I think.

Are there good FR-ish prestige classes, etc.? Certainly yes, there are scads. But I'll temper that remark by saying that in my opinion, you can raid 90%+ of any core D&D supplement for your FR campaign and find good places for that stuff to go. A specific example: I designed the Master Transmogrifist for the PGtoF, but we didn't have space for it in that book, and it's ended up in Complete Arcane, where it fits just fine. And the Wild Mage prestige class sure looks good in FR, too.

RE: The fiend lords/etc., it'll be a 2005 product; that's all I can really say now. I think it's not in the first trimester, so it's a bit of a wait. I know we're including B-G and some of the Elder Evils like Kezef. Eric Boyd's writing up some folks like Eltab, too. Plus, I've also got a BBEG who's a major player in my "Last Mythal" trilogy who should appear.

By the way, I'm delighted that Bazim-Gorag is sticking around in your game. Makes me feel appreciated."


Complete Arcane might be worthing getting just for the Wild Mage PRC

Also be very interested in knowing what sort of book Eric and Rich are working on

Theyve mentioned alot of outsiders. Bazim-Gorag, Eltab and Kezef

<open Wild Speculation>

Id say this product is either

A) A new FR monster manual (if so awesome, I love the "In the realms section that MoF" had)

B) An "FR manual of the planes"


Im hoping that in either of these books that they include Deity specfic Outsiders ie like those Mykrul had in the Waterdeep module

“I am the King of Rome, and above grammar”

Emperor Sigismund

"Its good to be the King!"

I am quite eager to see the return of the Wild Mage! I loved wild mages from the old Tome of Magic, and my DM took particular delight in wild surges...

They didn't have space for another PrC?

Yeah, I had to look outside to make sure pigs weren't flying after reading that comment.

Where did you pick this up from Dargoth?.

I noticed that the EN World site had a little more information. I'll try and track it down.

The WOTC FR boards in the Ask the game designer's thread, last page or second to last page.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

It's okay, I'd find the source myself anyway, but thanks Kuje . Looking over the data that I found though, they both pretty much say the same thing, it's just that the EN World contained different wording.
