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

I was reading the Tabaxi and realized there was no race based on dogs, why?
@mikemearls I was reading the Tabaxi race in Volo's and realized there was no race based on dogs. Any particular reason why?

We thought about doing one, and still might – wanted to do something with a bit more than just dog person, like tabaxi's Mesoamerican feel https://t.co/20pqA6sgm8

EXPLORERs!
If you check this article by Master Chris Lindsay you’ll find surrogates characters that will help you to play when your main PC is dead during Tomb of Annihilation. There’s a thief class with GRUG race that can be officially played.
A reddit user deduce what stats can have a Grug. Check it out

Thoughts on handling Tabaxi characters using the trees in the Chult?
@ChrisPerkinsDnD thoughts on handling Tabaxi characters (climb speed 20ft) using the trees in the Chult to get around the ground encounters?

I think that's cool. What's the point of being good at climbing if you can't leave your friends behind to get eaten? #wotcstaff https://t.co/paHyM7tMk6

Would Grungs from Volo’s fit into Strahd?

That depends on whether you think frog people belong in a Gothic horror setting. Ultimately, that's for the DM to decide. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/bfTarMyU7a
