Does Asmodeus actually gain power from his worshippers?

All gods gain power from their worshipers. The Astral Plane is littered with the petrified husks of dead gods who lost all their followers (on Twitter or elsewhere). #wotcstaff https://t.co/SMDqVISRpD

The 25th Anniversary of D&D’s “Planescape” continues with more preliminary sketches and the start of finished illustrations. You can see how the sketches developed into finished pen & ink drawings. 🎨 #dungeonsanddragons #planescape #roleplaying #roleplayinggame #penandink pic.twitter.com/NDZxpEfmLH

CHAMPIONS!
This is one of the classes that I missed most from past editions: the Warlord.
Master Robert J. Schwalb, designer of many 5e books like Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, released this popular archetype.
Pick up your copy in PDF from DriveThruRPG!
Warlords lead the charge into combat and through their insights, tricks, and stratagems, they enable all who fight at their sides to achieve their full potential to triumph in the face of any adversity.

#dnd tip for new DMs: if you're creating your own campaign world, don't be afraid to start small. Detailing a small town or a neighborhood in a large city is enough work. The adventurers progress rapidly, and the setting can grow with them. Lessons learned early will help later.

And if they want to go deeper/farther in world building early on, they should realize it’s probably for their own enjoyment in order to avoid being frustrated when the players don’t immediately engage as deeply with it as they do.

Precisely this. Do it if you enjoy it, but it might not make it to the table or into the players' minds. https://t.co/Ih9hu90TkK

@JeremyECrawford @ChrisPerkinsDnD are mindflayers gender/sexless? How would one refer to itself? #dnd
— JVC Parry (@jvcparry) January 8, 2019
Generally speaking, mind flayers are genderless. Under extraordinary circumstances, one might retain enough shreds of its pre-ceremorphosis existence to refer to itself using pronouns related to its former gender. See Volo’s Guide to Monsters for more info. #wotcstaff https://t.co/QRZJ9CeLDh

#dnd tip for new DMs: don't try to learn every rule at once. Let the players teach you about their characters at your own pace. After the cleric uses the same cantrip for the 30th time, you will know by heart how sacred flame works: it'll be etched into your mind forever.

This is true. It takes discipline for me to focus on my campaign for my current players rather than drifting off to understanding how sorcerers work. Truth is it doesn’t matter until my players bring it to the table.

This is so true. Thanks for sharing this. I know my worry was not knowing enough, but it is a matter of knowing how to handle the situation
