I’m putting together a Tal’dorei game for my niece, who REALLY wants to be a literal cat-rogue. I know anything goes, but how likely is it for one to spot a Tabaxi in Emon? 😀 Rare but possible! It would turn some heads!

Where did you guys get the idea for the name “Tabaxi”?
Where did you guys get the idea for the name “Tabaxi”? I think it’s a great name! I’m trying to create a wolf humanoid race and want some inspiration for a cool name. Thank you for your amazing work! Alas, it’s a name we inherited from Fiend Folio, a D&D book published back in 1981. Not familiar with where the name came from.

If a Grung Paladin used Lay on Hands on a non-Grung… Would they be poisoned?
So I just thought of something… @Onnatryx @RutyWoot …. If a Grung Paladin used Lay on Hands on a non-Grung… Would they be poisoned?Since grung aren't an official player race, I'd say up to the DM. In my game, the answer would be no, the paladin can choose to take care
