Rune Magic, Storm King’s Thunder and Giantcraft
The giants’ ordning was introduced in a 2nd edition D&D game supplement called GIANTCRAFT. https://t.co/Ddmm8bHvpa

After this Master Chris tweet I’ve made some research in my library and I found Giantcraft an interesting Forgotten Realms supplement that can give you a deep insights about Storm King’s Thunder storyline.
Here you will find:
- The story about the War with the Dragons
- A section on player-character giants and giant-kin
- A chapter on giant religion
- Details on giant rune magic
- Highly detailed lairs for the main giant types
- Uncover the secrets of the Ordning
- The forbidden “living cave”
- Learn the history of the sons and daughters of Annam
RUNE MAGIC is also described very well in the Unearthed Arcana pdf from Master Mike Mearls and can help you with your low level characters against giants.
If you need something about rune-based magic there’s the Vikings Campaign Sourcebook, that gives you more free play to put these magical runes in your pre-giants campaign.

Ed’s Triboar
@kc_halfdustI’m building out Triboar for PotA 5e campaign; considerations short of what is in Sword Coast and what I’ve penciled on paper? Triboar has extensive WALLED gardens (beds have snowload removable wooden roofs), to grow broadleaf greens food (+lotsrootveg).

Who is the most famous bard in Forgotten Realms?
@TheEdVerse Who would be the most famous bard/skald/troubadour in the Realms?
— M.T. Black (@MTBlack2567) April 12, 2016
@MTBlack2567 Depends on the era and your geographical/cultural location. Otherwise, Storm Silverhand vs. Mintiper Moonsilver.

Ed’s Manshoon
@fizzbulousSerious question, kept me awake half the night – Why is Manshoon’s robe made of beards? Heh. Just imagine what happened to the wizards who formerly owned those beards…more than that, I dare not say. ;}

Green-Flame Blade uses the CAST A SPELL action, not the ATTACK action
@JeremyECrawford If I cast Green-flame blade, or similar cantrip, can I follow with a regular attack with my off-hand weapon as well?

Casting a spell uses the Cast a Spell action, not the Attack action. #DnD https://t.co/QN1zofqoPC

@SageAdviceDnD @JeremyECrawford WOTC should make shirts that say "GREEN-FLAME BLADE IS A SPELL."
