Is this the book that explains how to start at level zero? It DOES!

Improvise is a cantrip. Foreshadow is a 1st-level spell. Blow minds and pull heartstrings are probably 3rd-level spells. Summon Tiamat might be a 9th-level spell. #dnd #wotcstaff https://t.co/DNaJyqditL

Power Word No has always been a favorite of mine.
— Evil Sales Associate (@EvilSalesAss) March 7, 2019
Power Word No is a spell you cast on the player who wants to make a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check to gouge out the paladin’s eye and replace it with the Eye of Vecna without the paladin noticing. #dnd #wotcstaff https://t.co/p6qVD8IWen

Is there a sociological difference between a Wild Elf from the Moonshaes vs … Elvencourt, say?
Moon Elf family who doesn’t reclusively keep to the deep forests going to be more “humany” than a Moon family from Evereska?

Like humans, elves (and dwarves) seem to have an innate pride/stubbornness that the more flexible (hence, blend in) halflings and gnomes have less of. This will cause elves to try to retain a distinct cultural identity in…#Realmslore 2)
…direct proportion to how threatened/unaccepted/badly treated they feel. They will blend in more with humans who accept them, and stay aloof and proudly ‘elven’ more with humans who treat them like non-humans.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 24, 2019
Moon elves are generally ‘welcomed but exotic’ in Cormyr; i.e. most human Cormyreans will respond to their grace and beauty with smiles and either shyness or friendly converse and aid, so the elves will relax and respond in… # 4)

“Writing helps you remember details”
Totally agree on the “writing helps you remember details” idea. I find when I write down the important stuff, even if I don’t refer back to it, the act of typing it out means I’ll remember it well enough when the time comes to know it. It’s always been part of my technique for script memorization in acting, and it just happened to transition to DMing well!

May we have a look into the Suzail Times Bestseller List of chapbooks 1e greybox times? pt1
@TheEdVerse for the sake of flavour & whimsy may we have a look into the Suzail Times Bestseller List of chapbooks 1e greybox times? I get a vibe from your and other novelists from back then that the top genre is bodice rippers. Any close competition?
— 🌈Jaye🦄Em🌹Edgecliff🏳️🌈 (@jayeedgecliff) February 8, 2019
A1) Sure. ;} I’ll split this reply so as not to overwhelm Twitter’s limits…
So the Old Gray Box is circa 1357 DR, and at that time Suzail has an avid reading public of all classes, not just wealthy nobility and “wannabe nobles”…#Realmslore 2) …among the wealthiest rising merchants. It also has a healthy chapbook and broadsheet publishing scene, not to mention bustling playhouses (the nobility tend to “hire in” players to perform in their residences, rather than…#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 9, 2019
3) …attending public performances).
Perennial leading bestsellers are, in descending order:
1. Bodice Rippers, especially if they’re thinly-disguised “tell all” adaptations of gossipy “I slept with Lord X or Lady Y or both”…#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 9, 2019
4) …revelations.
2. Memoirs of adventuresome lives, either full of derring-do or swindling skullduggery, or travels through vividly-described “exotic locales afar,” or both.
3. Rags-to-riches family saga fiction about plucky…#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 9, 2019
5) …rural heroes or heroines who by their wits and boldness ascend into the ranks of the wealthy and/or nobility, overcoming dastardly villains to do so.
4. Family histories of Cormyrean nobility, gentry, rising merchant…#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 9, 2019
6) …families, or long-in-service-to-the-Crown folk, sales directly reflecting how entertainingly-written they are, and how salacious/revealing.
5. Useful “how to” chapbooks on making your own wine or clothes, or bestiaries of…#Realmslore A7) …monsters and varmints/pests and how to deal with them.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 9, 2019
Does the Artificer’s level 6 “Alechmical Mastery” apply to the Arcane Weapon spell?
Does the Artificer’s level 6 “Alechmical Mastery” apply to the Arcane Weapon spell? Alchemical Mastery applies to one roll of a spell, so it can apply to one roll of the arcane weapon spell that deals acid or poison damage.

The Forgotten Realms Atlas
We are currently working our way through the 1990 TSR releases, the birth year of the “world wide web.” Anyway, up today is a most useful product – The Forgotten Realms Atlas. The maps are lovely. Here are a couple of copies out of my collection for you to muse over. pic.twitter.com/wixJwu0mEz

Karen did such a great job on this. And on Pern and Krynn and the others she did. Lost to us all too soon. It was SO great to have someone respectfully, CARINGLY, ask questions to make certain she got the geography exactly correct. I miss her.
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 14, 2019
The Forgotten Realms Atlas, by Karen Wynn Fonstad, provides a unique geographic look at the early Realms. It was published in August 1990.
