@allenshock1also: does Jack of All Trades allow Bards to add half proficiency bonus to initiative? Yes, since the feature applies to any ability check that doesn't already use the bard's proficiency bonus.

Rogue Mastermind, shouting at enemy?
@TobbunRogue:Mastermind Master of Tactics feature says as long as target sees/hears you. Basically Mastermind shouting at enemy? could be shouting to intimidate, or some other approach depending on character

What would need to be changed to run an adventure for 1player?
@Paranoxia @ChrisPerkinsDnDWhat would need to be changed to run the Starter Set adv. for 1player? DMPC or two to help with fights? yeah, I'd go that route. it's the easiest path. balancing for one is very tricky – bigger group absorbs luck

Thinking of allowing Strahd as a warlock patron
@ChrisPerkinsDnD Thinking of allowing Strahd as a lock patron. Any cool way to allow the character to defeat him without losing its class?
— Manny (@techjunkie30) May 7, 2016
You'd be better off choosing the Dark Powers as patrons. https://t.co/YKtWp23VIp

Sooo…you're saying my warlock's patron SHOULDN'T be Miss Snazzlepants the pink sugar unicorn? https://t.co/FD05MG5rbS

I personally find that very scary. https://t.co/pdqAyGs3Po

@ChrisPerkinsDnD I was running into trouble with this because it always felt like the patron's agenda needed to align with the plot, somehow
— sam kritchevsky (@sam_kritch) May 8, 2016
The patron has made an investment in the warlock. As the warlock gains power, the patron's influence grows. https://t.co/rfk29mewMS

@ChrisPerkinsDnD @Wolfenight I don't know, I'm playing a warlock whose patron is Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. True story.

I ❤️ Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. https://t.co/ZK2xIQgpFf

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Even Fey Patrons? The Fey in my games are assholes, but not really dark.
— BiteyMcChomp (@BiteyMcChomp) May 8, 2016
Fey can have a really dark edge to them. Immortality does weird things to one's perspective. https://t.co/LynMTve2vz

Are proficiency bonus added to all ability checks including initiative?
@allenshock1raging controversy on FB…claim made that Prof Bonus added to all ability checks incl. initiative. The proficiency bonus is added to an ability check only if you're using a skill or tool proficiency or a special feature.

How do you deal with a fighter who sneaks up to a guard and attacks the guard?
@JeremyECrawford and questsion 2: How do you deal with a fighter (not a rogue) who sneaks up to a guard and.. ' attacks the guard' ?

I follow the steps in the combat rules (PH, 189): check for surprise, set positions, roll initiative & so on. #DnD https://t.co/CAnDZTAALv

Also Primeval Awareness is arguably the worst class feature in the game…
@pukunui81Also Primeval Awareness is arguably the worst class feature in the game. It’s so not worth a spell slot. It's definitely situational. In my recent Ravenloft game—heavy on investigation, light on combat—Primeval Awareness was pivotal.

Do PCs need to take a long rest before leveling up?
@JeremyECrawford do PCs need to take a long rest before leveling up? I've assumed that but I haven't seen anything in the book about it.

As DM, I time the acquisition of levels to take place when the characters have a chance to rest and take stock. #DnD https://t.co/ab1SkVHisZ
