@JeremyECrawford Is a monster's cantrip power levels tied to its caster level, or to its hit dice?

A monster's spellcaster level is used for its cantrips. Check out "Spellcasting" in the "Monster Manual" (p. 10) for more on how spellcasting monsters work. #DnD https://t.co/mHBOjW9E2w

And now…an #epic fantasy moment that’s a sequel to last night’s… “We should go. NOW. If we leave the barbarian and hurry clear across the city to the south gate, word may not have reached the guards there yet, and we can get out and save our own necks. His is forfeit, no matter what we…#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 7, 2018

When he was out of breath, well down the alley, he slowed to catch his wind, and looked back. The mage and fighter were with him, but the thief was not.
…do,” muttered the mage into the cleric’s ear.
“I’m inclined to agree,” the cleric murmured back. “Is he looking?”
“Too much blood spraying for him to see,” the thief replied.
“Then down that alley!” The cleric pointed and ran.#epic fantasy “Now is NOT the time for extra-curricular thieving!” the cleric seethed.#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 7, 2018

“First off,” the thief said in his ear, dropping down on a line from a rooftop above and startling the cleric into a shriek, “it is ALWAYS time for extra-curricular PROCURING, Sir Thoughts And Prayers! And secondly, I’m not…#epic fantasy…coming with you. My coin’s on our barbarian; he has more than threescore Watch piled up as carrion around him already, he’s still fresh, and the Watch in this city has no archers. He should prevail. And a city without a…#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 7, 2018

…Watch is a thieves’ picnic, as the old saying goes.”
“What old saying?”
“The one I just made up. Now run along and flee the city, you bold adventurers, you. I’m staying here to get rich. I believe they call it ADVENTURE.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 7, 2018
Hi! :waves: Question about the Pirates of the Realms: Mutual respect or highly territorial? In my adventure a descendant of Teldar will be visiting Tashluta. Should they expect trouble? Thanks for your time! Mutual respect; the pirates are a "floating population" (ha-ha) of individuals who take docker and other jobs ashore in winter, do caravan guard duty, and otherwise move around a lot, so "territorial" just doesn't work, though some pirate captains keep trying.

A pleasure! Always happy to talk Realmslore!

There are even a few pirates who travel between the Inner Sea and Sword Coast "pirate isles"…usually as a result of things getting mighty too hot for them in one place, so they "vanish" and head for the other.

@TheEdVerse @ChrisPerkinsDnD – Exactly how much raw power (magical or mundane) would be required to open a new pool of radiance?
I akin it to a black hole or singularity in the Weave, so… ya know… a lot. But I'd love a cool idea on how to open one! #dnd #dnd5e pic.twitter.com/Qbyhdq3WMa— DropTheDie (@DropTheDie) August 10, 2018
A LOT of magical power. Back in 2ndEdition, I put an appendix in FA1 HALLS OF THE HIGH KING about moonwells, and pools of radiance aren't that different, so have a look. Weavemasters (like the Chosen of Mystra) can create pools, but they'd take a LOT of convincing to do it.

First meeting of the day was with @matthewmercer to talk about skate deck designs. Thx to @hydro74 for the cool new deck. Also cool stuff getting worked on for @Wizards_DnD #dnd #DungeonMaster #WotCstaff pic.twitter.com/n7pc3un4b8

Sometimes, there’s a bugbear in a dungeon. And that bugbear is just one monster among many, a foe to battle or perhaps an NPC to interact with. It all depends on your approach. (1/4)
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) July 28, 2018
And sometimes, that bugbear becomes the center of establishing new D&D canon. In this case, what happens if you cut a dead character’s face off, replace it with a sliced off face of a bugbear, then cast raise dead on the character? (2/4)
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) July 28, 2018
The answer is that the character comes back to life, face intact, with a bugbear face sewn over their own. (3/4)

And this is what went down when I DMed for @JamesPurdum2 @JodyPSchaeffer1 @GeorgeKrstic @chrisprynoski and @RyanVerniere Slaying monsters and establishing D&D canon, a fitting way to spend #GygaxDay (4/4)

In case you're haunted by a rule from another edition …
D&D has no rule for handedness, and the combat rules make no distinction between an attack with one hand or the other. #DnD

Question about the gunslinger class! Deadeye for the Scattergun, would I have to use a grit per attack roll within that one “pull of the trigger” or does one grit account for all attack rolls with that one shot? (as read it looks like a grit per attack roll) thanks Unfortunately, one of the elements of the “scatter” property is it cannot be augmented by any of your Shot features. Intended for balance and ease of use.
