@pukunui81What do you think white dragons sound like when they speak? My group will be facing Arauthator soon … Arauthator speaks in a softly menacing, hissing whisper (w/the muted organ-pipe thunder of his size behind it). Angry? =Whipcrack

How difficult is retrieve one of their dragon masks from Laeral Silverhand’s possession?
@pukunui81How difficult would be for the Cult of the Dragon to retrieve one of their dragon masks from Laeral Silverhand’s possession? Heh. Really hard, considering where they are now. Think: hidden behind subterranean beholders who don't know the masks are there.

@pukunui81 And for "subterranean beholders" think "Waterdhavian crime lords whose names begin with X"

Was there a lore book that explained the Sundering?
@ChrisPerkinsDnD Was there a lore book that explained the 4E to 5E realms shattering event?
— Bill Gould (@bpphantom) July 9, 2016
The Sundering was handled through a series of novels beginning with Ed Greenwood's novel, THE HERALD. https://t.co/kV9fIGMcCr

Does Waterdeep’s dragonward still exist?
@pukunui81Does Waterdeep’s dragonward still exist? If yes, which parts of the city does it not cover? Anything besides the Field Ward? Yes, it still exists! However, it waxes and wanes and…who knows its specific coverage, on a particular day or time? (No one!)

How far south / inland along the Sword Coast does it snow in the winter?
@pukunui81How far south / inland along the Sword Coast does it snow in the winter? JUST into Calimshan. (So, Tethyr and everything north.) Snow seldom stays deep on the ground south of the Wealdath.

#dnd #gamenight Breaking out this Dragon magazine article by @TheEdVerse from the 80s. Wanted to use it for years. pic.twitter.com/AY3kErpHu9

@TheEdVerse I checked this morning, the articles are from July and August 1983…33 years ago…I was 14 when I first read them.
— cawoodpublishing (@cawoodpublish) June 27, 2016
@cawoodpublish Heh. I remember writing them. And the talismans that got nixed to avoid "kids drawing the symbols on church walls everywhere"
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 27, 2016
@TheEdVerse Thanks for writing them, like I said I've always wanted to use it in a campaign. I guess there was some hysteria back then 🙂
— cawoodpublishing (@cawoodpublish) June 27, 2016
@cawoodpublish @TheEdVerse is this article online anywhere? I'd really like to read it!

Færûn or Faerûn?
@ETallitnics Question oh maker of the Realms: Færûn or Faerûn? Either one, because TSR has used the latter since they began publishing the Realms (didn't like any of my dipthongs).
