May 29, 2018 – One of the most powerful wizards in the Dungeons & Dragons multiverse shares some of his hard-won knowledge with fans in a new book full of lore and monsters for D&D fifth edition.
Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes is available everywhere starting today, May 29, with a choice of cover art. The limited edition alternative cover designed by Vance Kelly (at right) is available exclusively in local game stores.
Mordenkainen hails from the City of Greyhawk, but over the eons he has expanded his mastery of the major conflicts in the multiverse. Similar to 2016’s Volo’s Guide to Monsters, Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes not only contains everything you need to run challenging new monsters at the table with your friends but also provides tons of storytelling information on some of the most contentious relationships in the multiverse. You’ll learn more about the schism between drow and other elves, githyanki and githzerai, and dwarves and duergar, in addition to reading about the incessant Blood War between demons and devils.
Players will love to delve into Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes to search for story hooks to use with their characters, as well as try out some of the player options for races like tieflings and elves, or maybe an otherworldly githyanki or githzerai. Dungeon Masters looking for inspiration and greater challenges for players who have reached higher levels of play will find much to explore in Tome of Foes.
Also happening this week is the Stream of Many Eyes (June 1-3)! Tune in to watch Twitch streamers, actors, comedians and D&D luminaries during this three-day livestreamed extravaganza full of cosplay, crazy sets and amazing stories. During the Stream of Many Eyes(#SoMEDND), the D&D team will unveil the new adventure story coming this year!
