What town in the Realms should I use as a setting for fighting off a War Bandof Gnolls with party help? (1) Sword Coast North: Conyberry is a good candidate. But before I start any long list of places, what region of the Realms would you prefer?

Northern regions are better, wilderness areas where a gathering of gnolls wouldn’t be spotted at once, had time to reach critical mass.Okay: Conyberry, Grunwald, Jalantharr, Mornbryn's Shield, Quaervarr (Calling Horns is probably too small). All described in Volo'sGTTNorth.

I’m delighted! Thanks for your time.A pleasure! Happy gnoll bashing! ;}

@Tobbun hey ed, what would you say is chavyondat’s primary source of fresh water? A river? A lake? Constant shipments from other areas? Deep wells; fresh water coming up from the Underdark under pressure. Into the hills just NW of the tiny gulf that became the city harbour.:}

@AlessandroVio11Hello Mr. Greenwood. Is it known what happened to the Silverhair Knights, now that Eilistraee is alive and active again? Thanks! Still active, still a small order, usually pray for atonement directly to Eilistraee…and are usually personally answered.

@AlessandroVio11 A pleasure!

@MSKnerd314What type of ore would you say is more prevalent in the Sword Mountains, silver, iron, or neither? Nickel most common, then iron. Only trace silver, and only in the southernmost Sword Mountains. (Was different, but many mines worked out.)

@aloadofbullshit @ChrisPerkinsDnDDo folks send letters in FR? Is there a postal service or nothing so organised? Just messengers and couriers? 1) Temples act as courier waystops, merchants do the courier runs from temple to temple (small items, sealed messages, open messages). . . .

@aloadofbullshit @ChrisPerkinsDnD 2) Trading costers make steady coin doing "long runs," and guilds deliver within cities. It's a patchwork; some remote places are served …

@aloadofbullshit @ChrisPerkinsDnD 3) By peddlers or not at all. Wayside inns and village/town taverns also play a role, and locals WILL inform travelers how it works locally.

@aloadofbullshit @ChrisPerkinsDnD 4) They'll do so because all clergies warn: to mislead or be silent about such things courts divine displeasure=the community being cut off.

@ChrisPerkinsDnD, @TheEdVerse, is this the sort of food they serve at the Yawning Portal? 😉https://t.co/ifnYAkcxjb

@jamesjhaeck @ChrisPerkinsDnD At the Yawning Portal, there's much more in the way of sauces. And what we might call "mild chile con carne" and stews. Otherwise, spot on!

@benpheloung@TheEdVerse Hey Ed! Why don’t Hobgoblins have cities in the FR? They do. Inside mountains, mostly, though they have taken over some remote abandoned human cities. Building not their priority.

@kandidkerryHow do you address a minor noble in Waterdeep (i.e., Sir, Duke, etc.)? "Saer" is the generic term of respect for "someone higher than me but don't know their rank;" lord/lady always safest usage for Waterdeep.

— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 12, 2017

@kandidkerry In this case, "Lord" or "Lady" is also the correct formal way of directly addressing any noble. :}

@kandidkerryYou are always so quick with FR answers. Thank you! A pleasure! If I'm online (actually not often), I try to be quick. To make up for all the times I don't see a query until 8 or 40 hrs later!
