@mikemearls My whole group was arguing over this. If you "Hold Person" someone. Can you tie them up? or are their limbs locked in place?

@wstolliver @ZarconistPreistI always interpreted it like a mental stun, or hypnotic trance where they had no voluntary control.. same here

@JeremyECrawford Hold Person paralyzes, but no mention of falling prone in spell or condition- does this imply that H.P. para is rigid?

It is true that neither the hold person spell nor the paralyzed condition knocks you prone. #DnD https://t.co/70g84uuCH5

@BrailSaysAny official stance on whether being para leads to rigid limbs,ragdoll, or rigid-posable? No official stance.
