#DnD… Can a wizards familiar spin a web? According to the stat block for a spider they don’t have the ability though intuitively they should be able too. @JeremyECrawford

The stat block for a D&D monster contains only information that's relevant to typical D&D play.

For example, a spider (the mundane kind, not the big monstrous kind) can spin a web that is too delicate to have game relevance. The web therefore isn't in the stat block. #DnD https://t.co/SOsiXk11YV

"too delicate for game relevance"
are you unaware of the stuff players get up to? use a well fed spider familiar to make a house look more abandoned by it being covered in cobwebs for instance (:

One of the things I love about DMing is being the part of D&D that deals with all the wonderfully bonkers things players concoct. #DnD https://t.co/dL3Yz2mSfy

@JeremyECrawford Is Artificer a valid choice for the Magic Initiate Feat?

— SethTheFrank (@mrquixote) December 4, 2019

The artificer isn't included in the Magic Initiate feat.

A DM can certainly house rule that the artificer can be included, although you can gain access to most of the artificer's spells by choosing wizard or cleric. #DnD https://t.co/aTz8n8zSG9

So for tonight's #dnd, I had to rule on if a corpse is "equipment" for the purpose of a druid's wildshape merging the "item" into the new form. I said no. @JeremyECrawford did I make the right call?

When writing the D&D rules, we didn't consider corpses to be equipment.

That said, I could see Orcus, a Large lich, or some other macabre monster rocking a robe of corpses. #DnD https://t.co/cdsY2a1bdJ
