Statement from Wizards of the Coast
We [Wizards] recognize that some of the legacy content available on this website does not reflect the values of the Dungeons & Dragons franchise today. Some older content may reflect ethnic, racial, and gender prejudice that were commonplace in American society at that time. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. This content is presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed. Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is a strength, and we strive to make our D&D products as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This part of our work will never end.

We're prepping to write another batch of Short Rests, but were wondering if there were any topics you've always been curious about, but have been waiting for a team of research beholders to bring you all the details? This can be anything from a "History of X" type thing (as we've done for Slimes, Eberron, etc.), or something more conceptual like the recent series on how to do contracts/wishes. If you have any ideas for a topic, let us know and we'll get our top scribes on it!Support the show
