@ElDuxarinoVolo’s PC Orc race seems pretty lack luster and doesn’t seem to follow the design of other races. Why is that? (1/2) Take a look at the first paragraph of the section "Racial Traits" (VGM, 118). The monstrous races are, indeed, unusual.

How limited is the alternative cover for Volo’s?
@ChrisPerkinsDnD how limited is the alt cover for Volo's? A lot of game stores are sold out.
— Asa Allen (@allenasa78) November 6, 2016
We printed X copies, where X is an integer greater than 1. Stores can reorder if there's any stock left. Once they're gone, they're gone. https://t.co/TslbMdMsc9

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Why not just catfolk, I have never heard of Tabaxi till now. I feel like it was just made up for this edition.
— Lordofmadness (@Lordofmadness09) November 13, 2016
Nope. The tabaxi were in the 1st edition Fiend Folio. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/oVJ7lM34jf

Forgotten Realms Eastern Cormyr and the Purple Dragon, any suggested readings?
@DropTheDieI’m running a campaign set in Central/Eastern Cormyr. Love the country, love the Purple Dragon lore. Any suggested readings? Spellstorm and some Sage of Shadowdale trilogy scenes are set in central and eastern Cormyr. Volo's Guide To Cormyr is a must.

Hags! I included them in Curse of Strahd, and I hope people like what we do with them in Volo's Guide to Monsters. #WotCStaff https://t.co/5HEMFkjMWY

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Will there be more fey in Volo's Guide? I think there are only like 7 in the Monster Manual.
