Where did you guys get the idea for the name “Tabaxi”? I think it’s a great name! I’m trying to create a wolf humanoid race and want some inspiration for a cool name. Thank you for your amazing work! Alas, it’s a name we inherited from Fiend Folio, a D&D book published back in 1981. Not familiar with where the name came from.

Is the Boggle tiny or small?
Is the Boggle tiny (DNDBeyond) or small (Volo’s)? Also what would you say if a player wanted a Boggle warlock familiar?small – i'd allow it, but as a DM i'd have to focus on making it a real pain the ass

If a Grung Paladin used Lay on Hands on a non-Grung… Would they be poisoned?
So I just thought of something… @Onnatryx @RutyWoot …. If a Grung Paladin used Lay on Hands on a non-Grung… Would they be poisoned?Since grung aren't an official player race, I'd say up to the DM. In my game, the answer would be no, the paladin can choose to take care

I was reading the Tabaxi and realized there was no race based on dogs, why?
@mikemearls I was reading the Tabaxi race in Volo's and realized there was no race based on dogs. Any particular reason why?

We thought about doing one, and still might – wanted to do something with a bit more than just dog person, like tabaxi's Mesoamerican feel https://t.co/20pqA6sgm8

Grung as official playable race!
EXPLORERs!
If you check this article by Master Chris Lindsay you’ll find surrogates characters that will help you to play when your main PC is dead during Tomb of Annihilation. There’s a thief class with GRUG race that can be officially played.
A reddit user deduce what stats can have a Grug. Check it out
