@PlaguescarredHowdy Jeremy! Quick question for you, does it require any action/check to use manacles vs unwilling target? As a DM, I would require an action. If the target isn't incapacitated, I would also require an appropriate contest.

Mountain Dwarf without shield
@mikemearls hi sorry to bother, but if you don't mind I have a question about dnd 5e that's been bugging me (see next tweet)

@RichardMassive in the PHB things that give medium armor prof also give shields, with one exception: the Mountain Dwarf. oversight or intended? intended – shields are a little too flexible to give out as easily.

Can you recommend a good one shot adventure to hook new players to 5th edition?
@jonredsnz @Wizards_DnDcan you recommend a good one shot adventure to hook new players to 5th edition? Phandelver may be a bit long Phandelver is basically several small adventures strung together. You could use part of it, like Cragmaw Castle.
