@mikemearls what levels for PCs are #TalesoftheYawningPortal geared for? Any built in mechanics for adding new PCs (after death)?

— Alvin Ty Law (@alvintylaw) March 8, 2017

No specific mechanics – Sunless Citadel starts at 1st level, Tomb of Horrors handles level 14+ #wotcstaff https://t.co/BG1yJMn5HN

— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) March 8, 2017

@mikemearls Will including Volo's monsters be a common thing or will it eventually be expected to have both MM & Volos?

— baloney_ninja (@baloney_ninja) March 8, 2017

Our goal is to ensure that you only need the core rulebooks to use a supplement or adventure. #wotcstaff https://t.co/g665zx9h3K

@0Generic0 @ChrisPerkinsDnD @JeremyECrawfordCan a dungeon in TftYP be completed in one session? Average time to complete the dungeons? most of them are 2 – 4 sessions

@mikemearls Disappointed to hear that Yawning Portal wont have a special edition release with a black/silver cover to match my Volo pic.twitter.com/p8cr8pAL1D

— GravyKingpin (@SCRSDnD) January 15, 2017

They can't all be special! Then special would be normal. And we'd invent a new special, which would be new normal, and so on, endless loop. https://t.co/H4RaorykOS

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 16, 2017

In other words, we didn't do another special cover because we don't want to send civilization as we know it into ruin. This time. #wotcstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 16, 2017

@mikemearls The Realms are in good hands. This time. ;}

— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) January 16, 2017

@mikemearls I mean, I kinda understand that but….seriously? You wouldn't release a SE with the classic Tomb of Horror's face on it??

— AcceptablyPsycho (@AccPsycho) January 16, 2017

But is it worth ending civilization? Answer is actually yes. More seriously, we want to make SEs feel special, avoid too many. #wotcstaff https://t.co/7wuA8nENv7

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 16, 2017

There are easter eggs from all of the classic adventures in the cover of #dnd Tales from the Yawning Portal. Can you find all 8? pic.twitter.com/CSTxJE3wXd

— Dungeons & Dragons (@Wizards_DnD) January 20, 2017

I love starting the year off with an exciting #dnd product announce. Exciting stuff from the team. @Wizards_DnD #WOTCstaff pic.twitter.com/xQSnqp73pi

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

@Malchior_ @Wizards_DnD it was meant to be obscure enough that it was mistakable…dammit I'm not good at not sharing too much.

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

@Malchior_ @Wizards_DnD Well, the nice part of being boss is I get to share some secrets with the fans now and then so it is a nice perk.

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

@jason_wilson @Wizards_DnDI am so glad you included Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan. I love this dungeon. I think we did a great job picking and put something in there for all D&D tastes. Glad you like it.

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

@atlemar @Wizards_DnDso glad this is coming out. Good choice. Hope it sells well and you do more. (I want U series! Glad you like it. I can neither confirm nor denyany plans for the U series…@mikemearls gets salty when I do

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

@Tristanrohan2 @Wizards_DnD @mikemearlsGreat job on listening to fans on some one-off adventures. And the map upgrades @mikemearls mentioned look good We are always listening. We can't always respond and/or timing is tough but we always are listening

— Nathan Stewart (@NathanBStewart) January 5, 2017

I had a hand in developing this. =) https://t.co/9Ff6Mwk1js

— Chris Sims (@ChrisSSims) January 6, 2017

@Dummyurd Yup, I didn't do Forge of Fury, Sunless Citadel, and White Plume. It's out in April.

— Chris Sims (@ChrisSSims) January 7, 2017

CHAMPIONs!
Our Masters answer a lot of questions about the Tales from the Yawning Portal, I’ve collected all of them, let’s begin!

@Sands_TavaresDoes the size of this book indicate a smaller window between it and the next? nope

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 5, 2017

@bldaggerhart Is Tales from the Yawning Portal taking the place of a storied adventure path this spring, or will we see both?it’s our spring release #WOTCstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 5, 2017

@Loaf187 Will Tales from the Yawing Portal have a limited cover like Volo’s guide? no

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 5, 2017

@mahewa_jtIs Tales from the Yawning Portal the next story line, or more of a supplement? it’s meant to supplement all our other story lines – drop in adventures to extend or bridge content #wotcstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 5, 2017

@mikemearls Will the Tamoachan section of the new book be set in Maztica? The tabaxi references in Volo’s and Dragon+ make me hope… thanks

— Nicolás Carrillo-S. (@NicolasCS) January 5, 2017

will those guidelines include #Dragonlance as well? The adventures include guidelines for setting each in multiple worlds. Including Eberron! #wotcstaff https://t.co/hwJ02Z3qAm

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 5, 2017

@jrhyne1976 @NicolasCS yes

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@Sam_Urfer @ChrisPerkinsDnDSo, no storyline for the first half of this year? What’s the value to TftYP if one has all the adventures? 5e staff, full color art #wotcstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@Sam_Urfer @ChrisPerkinsDnD Staff = stats? No further material, perhaps? stats

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@mikemearls safe to assume from now on, WOTC will Announce in Jan for a Mar/Apr Adventure, Then May for Sep Adventure and Nov DM book?

— baloney_ninja (@baloney_ninja) January 5, 2017

I’d be leery of taking anything as a set pattern – we’ll vary our plans based on what we think will work best. #wotcstaff https://t.co/yPEREpNKET

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@Barantordoes “Tales from the Yawning Portal” also include “Warrens of the Stone Giant Thane” or just G1-3 “Against the Giants” g 1 – 3

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@mikemearls Yawning Portal looks awesome, but no story campaign this time around? Have loved all the campaigns and was hoping for more

— Ryan Conway (@VonFunkenstein) January 5, 2017

Tales is a little bit of a pause, a resource you can use with any campaigns. Rate people use stuff is something we keep in mind. #wotcstaff https://t.co/y24ccvH6x8

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@Inxanity1 @Wizards_DnD @ChrisPerkinsDnD So, Yawning Portal is Season 6, but is it “Labyrinth?” yes and yes

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@mikemearls was a little grumpy about Tale from the Yawning Portal till you mentioned inter-planar travellers. Thanks for not moving ToHtoFR

— Barantor (@Barantor) January 5, 2017

Part of the concept was to make the adventures usable with any setting – even Dead in Thay is easy to use elsewhere. #wotcstaff https://t.co/FrFMJHhnQE

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@eastmablwhere are the adventures from yawning portal located? Here’s to hoping that we’re getting other settings opened for DMsG. no set locations – picked ones that are easy to adapt to any setting #wotcstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@mikemearls @ChrisPerkinsDnD Just curious how far in the future did you plan your 5e roadmap go? #dnd

— Simon Oberbrinkmann (@Dummyurd) January 6, 2017

I have plans out to 10 years, but know that plans change as we learn and things change. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/k1P2fbb5ad

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@Lord_Sicariousan important question for Tales: is the Tomb of Horrors port just as harsh and deadly as the original? yes

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@jephlewisAre we getting TftYP 2 weeks early at FLGSs like we have with previous books, @mikemearls? Running a charity stream 3/35 and want to use SC. yes

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

@chriswachal @mahewa_jtdoes that mean there is a different adventure book coming out for the spring? no, taking a break from big adventures for the spring #WOTCstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) January 6, 2017

A thing I dig in Tales from the Yawning Portal: tips for setting the adventures in various worlds—particularly FR, GH, DL & EB. #WOTCstaff

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) January 6, 2017

@mikemearls @ChrisPerkinsDnD @jeremyecrawford @Wizards_DnD Which of the seven adventures in Tales is your favourite? #dnd

— Merric Blackman (@MerricB) January 6, 2017

The player in me says AGAINST THE GIANTS. The DM in me says HIDDEN SHRINE OF TAMOACHAN. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/a3njSybUjt

— Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) January 6, 2017

@ChrisPerkinsDnD they didn’t happen to sneak your “Warrens of the Stone Giant Thane” into “Tales from the Yawning Portal” did they?

— Barantor (@Barantor) January 5, 2017

Nope. Just the three original G-series modules. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/71hOENccq0

— Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) January 6, 2017
