Undead creatures can attune to magic items 👍

@JeremyECrawford can undead attune to magic items, being that they’ve “died”? https://t.co/lf5U0PYkde— Axel Kipp (@AxelKipp) April 3, 2018 An undead creature is not dead. #DnD https://t.co/3ehgCFkNQy— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) April 3, 2018 Undead still have something inside them that they once were? That would make sense for attunement.— Kevin Hitt (@Kevin_Hitt) April 3, 2018 The […]

Most Elves are not Fey in 5E

could Conjure Woodland Beings technically conjure elves then?? 🙂— Theo 🌹☃️ (@TheoYoureCool) February 28, 2018 Elves are no longer fey; they are now humanoids. The exceptions are the special eladrin who have transformed back into fey as a result of long exposure to the magic of the Feywild. #DnD https://t.co/ApLgMCv8Kf— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 28, […]

Is the extra damage from Hexblade’s Curse supposed to apply to Eldritch Blast?

@JeremyECrawford Is the extra damage from Hexblade’s Curse supposed to apply to Eldritch Blast? If so, does it apply to every single beam or just one? It seems a bit overpowered.— Poppamunz (@poppamunz) March 20, 2018 Hexblade’s Curse grants a bonus to any damage roll you make against the cursed target. That’s a damage roll […]

If you throw a melee weapon that does not have the Thrown property …

@JeremyECrawford If you throw a melee weapon (Warhammer, Club, etc.) that does not have the Thrown property do you use STR or DEX?— Three Eels (@3eels) January 26, 2018 Throwing something doesn’t give it the thrown property. That property, like other weapon properties, is inherent to the weapons that have it. Ranged weapon attacks use […]

If you ready an action to strike an foe, can you use action surge on that held action?

@JeremyECrawford If you ready an action to strike an foe, can you use action surge on that held action? — Thomas Meyler (@ThomasMeyler) September 20, 2017 Action Surge specifies that you take the extra action on your turn, not on someone else’s. #DnD https://t.co/K5TFSNii8a — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 20, 2017 But, you can use…

Bite is not an unarmed strike.

Is a bite an unarmed strike? Do teeth count as natural weapons? Are we starting to go down a rabbit hole? Is the white knight talking backwards?No (unless you have a special feature). Sometimes (depends on the creature). No. No.— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 27, 2018

MONKS AND MAGE ARMOR

@JeremyECrawford just to be clear, something like mage armor wouldn’t stack with a monk’s unarmored defense, would it? — AudibleShrug (@AudibleShrug) December 19, 2017 If the game gives you different ways to set your AC, you choose which one to use. Bonuses and penalties are then applied to that AC. #DnD https://t.co/Qbf0rYvKbo — Jeremy Crawford…

Grimgates, Arlathan and Spellhold same location, or nah?

Grimgates, Arlathan, (volo’s guide to BG2) and Spellhold (baldur’s gate 2 game) – same location, or nah? @TheEdVerse #dungeonsanddragons #ForgottenRealms No. Two different places. And I hid a few more of them in the vicinity that lore writers haven’t noticed yet. ;}#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) November 1, 2022

Catnap spell: are Elves unable to be affected by it, even willingly?

Can you help me pronounce Chardansearavitriol?

Sure. Phonetics follow:“Char-DAN-seer-ah-vitriol”(Fast on the beginning, bring your voice down in pitch, and louder, and slower, on the “DAN,” and then rise in pitch and gallop through the rest of it.)#Realmslore — Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) October 3, 2020

Genies (Part 1): General Lore

Hoo, boy! Time for another multi-parter! Hooray! And it’s another four-elements situation! On the Material Plane, genies are so rare that they’ve become a thing of myth. However, on the Elemental Planes, they basically live as kings, relaxing in palaces where servants worship them. They have a massive ego, stemming from the fact that they […]

Where in the Forgotten Realms do wombats come from? Where is FR’s Australia?

Rereading Tomb of Annihilation and this got me wondering – where in the Forgotten Realms do wombats come from? Where is FR’s Australia? Questions for Wombats came through gates from our Earth, long ago. There is no Realms analogue for Australia (be misled not by talk of “Osse,” for it is quite different).#Realmslore — Ed…

Can all mortal creatures create deities out of sheer belief or just the Kuo-toa?

Can all mortal creatures create deities out of sheer belief or just the Kuo-toa? And if only the Kuo-toa can, is this true only for Realmspace or is it true for the whole of the dnd multiverse? All deities in the Realms are created out of sheer belief. I can’t speak for the entire multiverse,…

Is there another Forgotten Realms term/terms for psionic?

Hi Ed. I know you are desperately busy right now, but I’ve been grappling with psionics. As in, how I dislike the term for a fantasy RPG setting. I know that “Invisible Art” is used in FR but that’s bit clunky. Is there another Realms term/terms for psionic? Thanks! The colloquial term among just plain […]
