@arlentric: My favourite D&D lore #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dndtiktok #gaming #ttrpg

Minimuchsadness :

Hasn't Elminster had Mountain Dew?

Killian Anderson :

Mountain Dew is canon to Faerun by way of Elminster.

Marble :

My dad gave me a lot of his old D&D books and this one is my favorite book

Jef Gorbach :

which implies the Egyptian (and thus likely others) are real here, earth's mana level is simply too low to properly utilize our Weave.

eric vonseggern :

that actually why they are called "The Forgotten Realms"

RaventheRogue :

canonically, the DnD "writers" met a planeswalking Elminster (yes the old man from BG3) and he told them all about Faerun, to which they documented his stories for the game

Finnr🇺🇸 :

Wait is that why Kitsune are never listed as a Player Race?

i_like_bad_jokes :

next up, isekai campaign.

Dekuton Willowtear :

listen. elminster once brough kelbun blackstaff a 2 liter of mountain dew and they shared it. yes. this happened. yes elminster snagged it from ed greenwood. and they both really enjoyed the bubbles.

Yellow Cottontail :

You're giving me ideas for a PC that was on his way to a shift at Wafflehouse and got plane shifted into whatever mess he's at. Yes he's going to be a Barbarian

bunniicuula :

The new Ravenloft expansion also makes Massachusetts a dread domain! 🫡

gnashkandy :

Wildenian_Thot :

Oghma, the god of knowledge, is an interloper deity in dnd and is borrowed from Irish folklore if I’m remembering correctly

David Willette :

also humans in general are not native to fearun

John Q Public :

Did he say his name was Diane?

Shini BlackRose :

that means they have humans that are earthlings. 😭 l

Beef 🥩 :

planeswalkers in MTG explains this perfectly

Drake :

anything and everything is real in D&D if the right plain-shift happens

Queen Niamh :

is that why the Norse pantheon is in the PHB?

John C :

My favorite is the ancestor of bully wugs are kind of the reason why we have modern D&D lore to begin with

Roman Munroe :

Elminster is Ed Greenwood is Elminster. Literally Merlin from Sword in the Stone at this point.

HelmBurger :

my players never found it, but i included a letter from the IRS to Strahd (its homebrew but still fun)

Myna Collyn :

ah yes, the "interloper deities"

Wrinkles the Clown :

Saint Cuthbert is my favorite example of this

Jozaru :

That means humans got teleported 😂😂
