Hmmm... It'll be interesting to see what you come up with for this. The world of Eberron is not directly connected to the core D&D cosmology [as Keith Baker has said]. Thus, the Great Wheel is an entirely different cosmological framework to that which was presented in the Eberron Campaign Setti...

... the Great Wheel is an entirely different cosmological framework to that which was presented in the Eberron Campaign Setting . Actually, it has already been stated that even Toril has a separate framework from the Great Wheel; thus it actually makes sense nowadays that Eberron might have a more ...

It is worth mentioning that the MAgneto movie is not set after the X-Men movies, but before them. Long before them, it's to follow his earlier days, showing how he comes to hate humanity. Indeed. There are 'unconfirmed' rumors that some of the scenes shown will mirror the rather graphic [for the ti...

And, for somewhat obvious reasons, Pan usually wasn't very well liked by the other Greek gods.

Wiccy of the Fraternity wrote:Daredevil 2, Ghost Rider 2 are all possibilities. X-Men 4, Spider-man 4 and FF3 being very possible (or even already confirmed).
I think FF3 was confirmed, just recently.

I'll have to check up on that.

Unfortunately, I have neither a MySpace or a LJ link to offer at the moment because I'm presently setting up new versions.

Once they're done I'll send them along to Wiccy.

Another possibility... Allowing a Darklord access to a "domain", like an oubliette, in the Mists may increase the likelihood that the individual Darklord will divine the secrets of the Mists themselves, pierce the protective planar boundaries of the Demiplane erected by the Dark Powers, an...

And there may even be places where the reach of the Dark Powers cannot properly extend -- whether because divine influence denies their presence or some other power prevents them from reaching into a particular crystal sphere. Of which one such place -- let's hope with every fiber of our beings -- ...

Weirdly, the list mentions a "Demiplane of Nightmares". Think this might have an connection to the Nightmare Lands? The PS source I noted above was one of the first to suggest a possible connection between the Demiplane of Nightmares and the Nightmare Lands in the Demiplane of Dread. As s...

Ravenloft (as the Demiplane of Dread) is one of those listed, and the Demiplane of Imprisonment is one of the three fully detailed (hopefully finally clearing up the confusion between it and Ravenloft). The 2e Guide to the Ethereal Plane for the PLANESCAPE line, makes it clear that the two planes a...

I've had to cut a few from my list, because the references themselves may not be clear for those that don't have the Star*Drive books [and they are difficult to find these days].

I'll see if I can find anything else of use in the next day or so.

Some have said that the Dark Powers work by sequestering truly evil characters in the Demiplane of Dread, so they can't hurt other worlds. Thus, that means the Dark Powers are actually performing a good task. This is bolstered by the fact that they seem to punish evil by giving evildoers harsh curs...

An illithid isn't going to become more monstrous no matter how many brains it eats. The various illithid types described in The Illithiad could suggest otherwise. As I see it, the standard illithid is only one of many illithid types that mortals can encounter when dealing with them. As such, I woul...
