Dungeons & Dragons has revealed a full description of its upcoming Phandelver and Below campaign book. Last night, Wizards of the Coast updated the pre-order page for Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk campaign book. The description for the book revealed that the book will contain a bestiary with two dozen creatures, some of which have psionic magic. Additionally, a magic appendix will appear in the book, with new consumable metamagic items, Netherese amulets, and duergar magic. Given that the titular obelisks were created by a group of Netherese spellcasters, the reveal that Netherese magic items isn’t exactly a surprise. However, it will be interesting to see if the duergar magic has magic spells or are just magic items.ย
