@JeremyECrawford For the Polymorph spell what counts as a "creature"?
— Stephen Black (@Stephen82542166) September 11, 2017
The introduction of the Monster Manual (p. 6–7) lists the different types of creatures that inhabit the D&D multiverse. #DnD https://t.co/X8e86Oc2Jf

@JeremyECrawford Can a monster harm itself to break the paladins abjure enemy ability?
— matthew steinwert (@DMwithABowTie) September 18, 2017
The effect of Abjure Enemy ends if the target takes damage. The feature doesn't prevent the target from damaging itself. #DnD https://t.co/tjYEprX3v6

so a barb can't hit himself to keep up his rage, but an enemy CAN hit himself to end Abjure Enemy? ok……………………. pic.twitter.com/R16Kkpxd1U

The Rage feature allows you to keep your rage going by taking damage (including from yourself) or by attacking a foe. #DnD https://t.co/S1Hg3H2KA8

This seems to contradict https://t.co/UfOEyGXKuy
— Eric Green (@quadhund) September 20, 2017
Barbarians can't keep Rage going by simply attacking themselves (must be a hostile creature), but they can deal damage to themselves. #DnD https://t.co/jRUDHTBl4O

The two tweets say the same thing.

Attack doesn’t equal damage. So they would have to actually damage themselves to sustain their rage Exactly.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 20, 2017
I feel like beating your chest or slapping your head for 1 (or 1d4) damage would be a cool (and barbaric) way to keep the rage going And the rules allow that.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 20, 2017
What would an attack roll against yourself be like? Or is this just referring to AoE effects like a Fireball that you're in the area of?
— Thalia (@1d8_cold_damage) September 20, 2017
The rules for attacks apply no matter whom you attack (see "Making an Attack," PH, 193). A DM might give you advantage to hit yourself. #DnD https://t.co/i0egjrX1xE
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 20, 2017
What if you internationally cut yourself. That isnt really an attack.
— Joseph Tracy (@Timenight113) September 20, 2017
If a character wants to damage themselves, most DMs will allow it to happen automatically: "Roll the dagger's damage against yourself." #DnD https://t.co/UmAPqRn3ua

@JeremyECrawford Hi Jeremy, The Barbarians +2 damage when raging, does it apply to weapons such as the Dwarven Thrower when thrown?
— John Miller (@Johnwma29) September 8, 2017
The damage bonus granted by Rage applies to melee attacks, not ranged attacks. #DnD https://t.co/MDgzBrLAaP
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 13, 2017
You ever thrown something… ever thrown something while angry? I’d argue for thrown weapons dealing a +2.. oh wait I’m a DM XD My tweet reiterates what the Rage feature says. If you'd like it to work differently, house rule away!

Is that @ChrisPerkinsDnD voicing Volo in @NeverwinterGame?
— TPK-Online (@TPK_Online) July 26, 2017
Oui, c'est moi. Apologies in advance. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/JzKa3Ku8fm

@JeremyECrawford can you use warcaster to cast Eldritch Bolt as a AoO even if you're level 5 or higher?
— Harvey Williams (@HarvDWilliams) September 14, 2017
The 3rd benefit of War Caster requires you to target only the moving creature. Eldritch blast works as long as all the beams target it. #DnD https://t.co/WWjgiHQgtD

Good Sir,
I’m going to be placing a chaotic dwarf on trial.Shift of political power, he lost.Any inside info on this process?ThxHeh. What is the jurisdiction trying the dwarf? Waterdeep? Cormyr? Sembia? Outside the Realms? (Matters. ;} )— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2017
NE of Neverwinter. It’s a clan he helped start, but he’s not the ‘ideal dwarf’ to some, and after a shift in power, the ruling tribunal is headed by someone who just doesn't like him and wants his name separated from the history.
— Adam (@TheOneXalted) September 11, 2017
Ah. This would be a gathering of clan elders, matriarchs and patriarchs, all voting: any matriarch's vote counts double vs. a patriarch. …
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2017
The head of the tribunal would state what they want to happen to the dwarf on trial, and the elders would debate and demand any evidence…
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2017
Never knew dwarves were more of a matriarchal society. Very cool!
Would there be any universal law governing dwarf behavior? Not these days. Too many clans have had to do too many things just to survive. In GENERAL, dwarves cleave to their family over others, …— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2017
Thank you Sir for the responses and for taking the time to do so.
Any chance the NDA’s on the Deep Imaskari are lessening? Lol! Heh. No. ;} But maintain hope…one never knows. ;}— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) September 11, 2017
"good old days" (that weren't good, for the most part) see my DWARVES DEEP.

@JeremyECrawford As far as improvised weapons go, how much weight can I throw, and how far? Would a willing goblin ally be able to be thrown
— Liyarin (@Liyarin_) September 12, 2017
The DM governs the use of improvised weapons (see PH, 147–8). The rule pertains only to objects but could be used for creatures. #DnD https://t.co/9yipRMKSED
