Hello all! I'm looking to start a 3.5 Dark Sun (pre-revised) game. I'm planning on using the [very] well done publications from athas.org and the SRD but I'm considering letting in a few more D&D publications.

It looks like desiccation damage based spells from Sandstorm would be a good fit: it's a bit more power for the arcane casters but they need a boost to get back to the original Dark Sun in my opinion.

The Erudite from Dragon/Complete Psionic and even the WotC website looks like a good fit for Nibenay (the Shadowking and some city members).

Is there a consensus on non SRD sources for Dark Sun?

Each DM is free to decide what and how to implement in their campaigns. I personally like the environment rules Sandstorm uses, along with the spells and the dessication rules, and I use them in my games.

It is not something we will use on official releases, though...

We are using a ton of sources in our game. Im personally playing an Ardant. All total to build my character alone we have used.

Dark Sun r6
PHB
PHB2
XPH
Unearthed Arcana
Complete Psi
Untapped Potential
Hyperconcious

I know other players are using tons of sources, some even third party, we all are having a blast and so far all seems to be in the spirt of Dark Sun
