Ed’s maiden
A maiden fair to see
Inspires much bad minstrelsy
In those smitten by her beauty
We ugly men do sigh
For us few maidens vie
No matter how fruity our booty— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 15, 2018
Oh, horror! There’s too much time until morn
For these beasts soon to their lairs slink away
So we must face fang, claw, and horn
If, that is, we dare to stay— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 17, 2018
To the Cave of the Dread Wyrm fared the adventurers bold
Intruding on that cunning dragon for hours and hours until
Those that weren’t eaten or cooked to ashes lay sprawled and cold
What a high corpse-heap of trouble a dragon takes to kill— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 17, 2018
“New royal proclamation,” growled the dwarf
1)
“New royal proclamation,” growled the dwarf. “Seems adventurers are the scourge of civilization. AGAIN.”
“Oh?”
“All existing charters revoked. All adventurers to report to a royal guardpost by sundown tomorrow, and to refrain…#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 9, 2018
3)
…from all adventuring activities until then. No weapons drawn, accept no new work—”
“What if we get attacked? Surely self-defense still applies!”
“It does, but there’s an express warning not to trust in it to escape…#epic fantasy …‘rightful justice.’”
“Hunh,” said the barbarian. “Good thing I can’t read, so I don’t know any of this.”
“That won’t work. Not now they’ve posted it.”
“Well, we’ll UNpost it. All over town. Come on!”
“Where?”
“To catch the…#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 9, 2018

…guards putting up the proclamation notices. Put on these masks.”
“Masks? Why?”
“Because right now we’re not adventurers, we’re lawless brigands, see?”
“I don’t think the king sees a difference!”
“YET.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 9, 2018
“O the dark elven bard wears armor hard”
The priest said he could see me tomorrow
To give bright guidance and banish my sorrow
But tomorrow’s too late
By then dragon hunger will be “dragon ate”
And the bits of me it can’t digest
Will be crapped out in its lair with all the rest— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2018

And has suitor-lasses hysterical
And the two-timing paladin’s quests his gods’ hearts gladden
’Til they hurl lightning storms atmospherical— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2018

Ah, but I
Can never die
For I’m the undead thief beyond all grief with my disguises glib and chimerical— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2018
How do I make Asmodeus super scary?
Yes Chris I had a question on how to roleplay Asmodeus!!! I really wanna do it for a Halloween special but idk how! How do I make him appear? How do I make him super scary? Got any tips?
— Halloweenèz666 (@Inez666_) September 29, 2018
Heh. This is one I can help with! Gary Gygax and I were on a panel together at a Milwaukee-era GenCon in which we agreed that Asmodeus is best portrayed as an always-calm, sardonic, on-the-verge-of-purring "almost-smiling" Vincent Price (see many, many horror movies). ;}

Drawing maps helps me define the scope of an adventure
Today was Day 1 of a new project, which began with me pulling out a blank pad of graph paper! Drawing maps helps me define the scope of an adventure, and also gets me excited about writing it. #wotcstaff

What was the inspiration behind developing different spellcasting systems for different classes?
What was the inspiration behind developing different spellcasting systems for different classes?
— ThinkDM (@ThinkingDM) September 26, 2018
The idea is that each class has its own distinct theory and practice of magic. Think of how Celine Dion and LL Cool J are both musicians, yet have little else in common. Same basic category, very different technique and expression. https://t.co/ylyEVuZ3Ha

The Real question is where is the Freddie Mercury Class, or would that class be too OP? Glamour bard in Xanathars!
