@ChrisPerkinsDnD @DnDTweets If aurochs is the singlular, what's the plural? Aurochses?

It’s a real (albeit extinct) animal. The plural is aurochs—same as the singular. #wotcstaff https://t.co/H3CnHWXtr9

How long can a Kenku remember particular sounds/sequences for? Could a Kenku bard reproduce performances by others years later? What about combining the sounds of multiple instruments/voice? Multiple noises would be hard – would recommend a Intelligence (Perform) check to get it right. IIRC a kenku has near perfect recall of noises, so can dreg up stuff from decades ago if needed.

I think it does a good job of expanding the monster options, plus based on feedback I think we hit the mark by giving lore and races that inspire some fun story idea. #wotcstaff

If you specifically need higher challenge monsters to throw at a level 10+ group, might want to wait for Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes to. Releases in May. #wotcstaff

Are lizardfolk bites able to be finesse weapons or are they intended to be strength only?The bite is not a finesse weapon. If it was, its description would let you know.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 27, 2018
I mean, it says weapon right in the description. In addition in a previous question Mike said that if he remembered correctly, claws and bites are treated as weapons.

Claws, bites, and the like are natural weapons—not to be confused with simple and martial weapons. Unless a rule says otherwise, natural weapons have no weapon properties, such as finesse, versatile, and thrown. #DnD https://t.co/ropFlWIpwi

Lizardfolk, that's another one. Tell me you wouldn't love seeing a Lizardfolk tailwhipping and biting all over the place.

A creature of any type can make unarmed strikes. See page 195 in the Player’s Handbook, “Melee Attacks.” #DnD https://t.co/xXBHLPFn9e

@JeremyECrawford Can you settle a heated discussion, please? A firbolg PC casts booming blade then uses hidden step to go invisible. The creature that is hit with booming blade moves away and thus takes damage. Does hidden step deactivate?
— Nathaniel Mosher (@RubiksMoose) February 1, 2018
So it doesn’t matter if a spell/effect is initiated by you before hidden step was activated? As long as you make a creature do a saving throw or attack or roll damage for any reason then hidden step ends? That’s correct.

@JeremyECrawford I looked through with no luck on this, would a level 3 kenku warlock who heard someone cast a spell like blur (V only) be able to use him mimicry and cast it as well, provided he has a spell slot not used for the appropriate level?
— Alan Johnson (@JohnsonAlan36) January 4, 2018
A kenku's Mimicry trait doesn't confer the ability to learn new spells. #DnD https://t.co/IlnhHlFF5X

@JeremyECrawford @mikemearls friend will be playing a kenku in a one-shot. We discussed how mimicry works. Are they more like a parrot, repeating what they've heard? or can they observe a group for a time and make sentences using said voice? how long can they remember sounds?
— Brian Kenline (@Kn1ghtHawk32) January 25, 2018
A kenku is capable of speech. But that speech is a bizarre mix of syllables, words, and phrases in voices the kenku has heard. #DnD https://t.co/OTL0Fk2wCP

In my horror-themed home campaign, kenku assassins unsettled the player characters by mimicking the death screams of the poor souls the assassins had slain. #DnD https://t.co/Qy2Zm2voZa

My players (including @ChrisPerkinsDnD and @aquelajames) have commented that my current campaign is one of the darkest/grossest D&D games they've ever experienced. And the group digs it! 😈 #DnD https://t.co/KmkUsTHxcK

More about kenku: they can cleverly piece together voices and sounds they've heard to communicate. They're not less intelligent than other humanoids, but they do have an unusual form of communication. To simplify roleplaying one, think of two-three voices for the character. #DnD https://t.co/Qy2Zm2voZa
