I have some edits that I need to make to Sisters of the Aquarian Order today, so I won't be getting that out to every just yet.
I have some posts I need to wrap-up, but I am headed to an early morning meeting today so some links will have to do.
+Ray Chapel over at Quasar Knight's Fantasy Blog has put together something I have been meaning to do for a while. A comprehensive list of all the White Star products on OneBookshelf.

It is an impressive list to be honest.
+Sean McG over at The Power Score has done another of his fantastically detailed analysis of a D&D monster. This time it is for the Vampire. A long time favorite of mine.

+Chris Kutalik and +trey causey have both given us some detail on the so called "Erol Otus Pantheon" on their respective blogs.

It is a nice little trip back to the 80s.
+Mark Craddock has been steadily releasing D&D5 material over at the DM's Guild for a bit now.
His biggest project is Deities and Domains: Specialty Priests of the Forgotten Realms (39 Feats for 5E). At 25 pages and 39 dieties this is one of the larger products. While overtly for the Forgotten Realms, there is so much here that any D&D 5 palyer should grab it and just swap out the names for their own gods. Plus it comes with a printer-friendly version. I am already using the cleric of Mystra, only in my game it is a cleric of Wee Jas.
His newest is Psionics Unearthed: Tesseract. I just got it and love it. The best way to describe it is "blinky thieves" but it would work for any martial class too. It might actually be a little underpowered compared to say the Arcane Trickster, but the fact that a Tesseract can use their powers multiple times between long rests makes up for it. My kids will fight over who gets to use this one!
My favorite though has to be Character Crucible: Dhampirs.
Not very large, but it does exactly what it needs to do. The Dhampir is a great race to play in any version of D&D, but Mark capitalizes on the strengths of D&D5 to make a fun race. I would have an easier time working these Dhampirs into my games than the Dragonborn and Tieflings my kids want to play all the time.
I know I made up details for the gods on that cover back in high school or college, but I no longer have those notes. I may need to do something similar as a future blog post of my own...
