Is the Gnoll bite really only 1d4 or should it 1d6 like the Lizardman bite?1d4 is the standard damage for a gnoll bite according to the 5E Monster Manual, so that's what we used. However, even if the damage isn't high. it triggers the Rampage ability.

Yes, there are playable gnolls in Exploring Eberron.

What is the most terrifying undead to face in a #TTRPG?
— James Introcaso (@JamesIntrocaso) August 25, 2020
Lich
— SlyFlourish.com (@SlyFlourish) August 25, 2020
Lich is a good answer, but I think undead that you aren't entirely sure what they are are quite scary! So I'd say undead creatures we don't usually think of being undead, like beholder zombies or rotting tarrasques.

A wyvern should be smoked, so in a smokehouse let it be hung
By its tail, and at the other end, by its tongue
But I know of no smokehouse big enough to smoke a dragon
So build two lines of bonfires, and drag your wyrm between, on a wagon I can't imagine the amount of seasoning you would need.
Maybe do the smoking close to a salt mine?— Don (@Don46330919) March 28, 2020
A wagon full of half-salt, half-pepper would do. Covered by boughs of mixed herbs to keep it from blowing away. ;} Sounds good.🙂

Good luck catching one, first!Wait until your ravening wyrm is asleep. Then trick a wizard into working a "move yon mountain" spell to prove their might. To drop atop the dragon, then put back to tidy up.
Often, squashed dragon gets moved, too, for easier collection.

Haahhaahahaha Gotta try that! If it’s a volcano, then all you need is gather a lot of friends and make sure the dwarves bring the ale. Reeling at imagining drunken dwarves dancing and singing not "It's Raining Men!" but "Burning Mountain Doth Erupt…And It's Raining Dragon!"
Pass me that decanter, will you? No, not the ale, the one full of something stronger.— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 28, 2020
God I love you Awww. I love you, too. (And think any trying-to-be-objective judge would rule you more lovable than me. ;} )

This is a good plan…but my dear friends remember to make sure you, brought down the dragon’s mate while you’re at it otherwise…while you’re smoking your fine dragon, you, my friend will become a cautionary tale when the mate makes you char-broiled humanoid! Wise advice, to be sure.
Personally, I prefer 'brute' dragon meat (fire lizard), not sentient, and both smoked AND pickled…but pickling a whole carcass is a LOT of work. So I settle for roast boar, or smoked deli meat.
I prefer local adventures, these days.— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 28, 2020

“Oh.”
“We strive for efficiency, Elvar. To keep you in feasts and wine.”
“Ah, well, I could use some of both about now!”
“Except during times of invasion.”#epicfantasy2)
The emerald-lit room is large and furnished with a dozen round tables, each large enough for four plain stools drawn up around it. A long bar or high counter runs down the back of the room, and bottles line shelves covering…#epicfantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 28, 2020

…the wall behind it.
“Is this a TAVERN?”
“Jailers have to drink somewhere.”
Palonder shoots some swift glances around, ducking to peer under the tables.#epicfantasy 4)
“They’ve all fled,” Wolf assures him dryly.
“Leaving the prisoners to STARVE?”
“There were no prisoners. Haven’t been for years, according to the records they sent up to us at the Castle.”
“Hmmph. Light work,” Chant says tartly.#epicfantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 28, 2020

Since sorcerers use magic from their bloodline, what’s the difference between someone who has “the Gift” (not entirely sure what this is I’m gonna search it up later) and a normal sorcerer?In the Realms, "the Gift" is the innate ability to wield magic (arcane magic is "the Art"). Not all mortal beings have it. Some can neither 'feel' magic (until its effects hit them) or work with it. Just as some people can carry a tune, and others can't.#Realmslore

(No one can be a sorcerer who doesn't have the Gift.)#Realmslore

When you’re playing #DnD do you prefer talk about your character in 1st person or 3rd person? Why?
(I find myself switching without meaning to sometimes) I speak in 1st person, and describe actions usually in 3rd, but probably slip into 1st a bunch.

D&D is a conversation. It's a conversation between DMs and players and between you and our design team. Your passionate feedback helps us see what's working and what isn't. We built 5th edition through such dialog, and we're improving the game through it too. Thank you! 💖

A question for #dnd DMs and adventure creators. What do you think about tasks that have no chance of failure and are just about HOW the players do it and not IF? Example: stealing an item with the DM instructed to allow it as long as there is sufficient effort. It has a place in the game. I think it's a great tool for exploration and travel. You know the characters are going to get from point A to point B. The question is, what shape will they be in when they get there, and what stories will they have to tell?
