It's been years since I've posted on these forums, but this has always been one of the more reasonable D&D communities, and I'm stuck on a question.</p>
<p>That question is: Can you use Minor Illusion to fill in the Verbal component of another spell. It was asked to Wizards of the Coast's "Sage Advice" Twitter account back in 2017, and the entire answer was "You can't cast two spells at once. #wotc". I haven't found an official answer to this question since.</p>
<p>The problem with this answer is twofold. First, it ignores that Minor Illusion has a duration of 1 minute, but a casting time of 1 action, which leaves the player with 9 more rounds where Minor Illusion is active but not being cast; •and• ignores that the PHB itself says that if on a turn where you cast a spell with a casting time of "Bonus Action" you can only cast a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action - or to rephrase it in a very important way, on a turn where you cast a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action, you can cast a spell with a casting time of "Bonus Action". Minor Illusion is a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action!</p>
<p>Obviously, the key to all of this is whether or not an illusion can be used to fulfill a spell component. The Seeming spell specifically says you can't use it to create material components, but there's no such wording in Minor Illusion nor am I aware of a general ruling on auditory illusions.</p>
<p>So, is anyone here aware of any official rulings on this other than 2017's useless answer?</p>Hello all! It's been years since I've posted on these forums, but this has always been one of the more reasonable D&D communities, and I'm stuck on a question.

<p>Pathfinder is well set with Cretaceous era dinos - 18 entries, and all of 'em pretty famous. A good spread, can't complain (well, I like my <i>Therizinosaurus</i> fluffy, but I know I differ from a lot of folks in that).</p>
<p>The Jurassic has half of that, 9 entries, but that's okay, because with the exception of <i>Stegosaurus</i> and the Sauropods, most Jurassic dinosaurs look a lot like Cretaceous dinosaurs.</p>
<p>But the Triassic - the great efflorescence of life following the massive Permian extinction - doesn't have anything. ZERO Triassic dinosaur entries. Now, really, you only need a <i>Coelophysis</i> to really cover any DINOSAUR bases for the Triassic, but we're including pterosaurs and marine reptiles under the dinosaur banner, so there are some GREAT critters that I'd love to see in the next Bestiary:</p>
<p><i>Tanystropheus</i>, the coastal reptile that was 20 feet long - 10 of that neck. <i>Shringasaurus</i>,the real-life Slurpasaurus (check out TV Tropes). The Familiar-sized running crocdile <i>Terrestrisuchis</i> or the 9-foot long bipedal crocodile <i>Carnufex</i>. And definitely the weird little marine reptile <i>Atopodentatus</i>.</p>

<p>The World was meant to be perfect, a shining vision of the perfect Creator's vision of beauty. A garden of delight for all living things. The First World was almost perfect, death and shame and sorrow all but unknown. But not quite perfect - oh, sadly no. Rovagug was the Creator's helper, his duty was to perform the unfortunate task of sweeping away flawed Creations, returning their essence to the bosom of their Creator.</p>
<p>But lesser beings, other servants of Creator, they pleaded with their Master to save this First World. Was it not NEARLY perfect? Was it not filled with beings that could adore Creator in their simple, flawed ways? Creator, full of love for his servants and his imperfect creations, allowed this failure to stand.</p>
<p>The inhabitants of this world, while they did not know pain or sorrow, neither did they know love or loyalty. They did not adore the servants of the Creator. Then, the servants of Creator knew hubris. THEY would create a world; THEY would improve upon Creator's work. They created this dunghill of a Creation, filled with small and petty beings like themselves, and named themselves Gods. This, loyal Rovagug could not tolerate! He came down upon this abomination, and stood ready to rend it to shreds. In his anger and his shame at having allowed this, he was blind-sided, betrayed and trapped by the most treacherous Gods, and bound in eternal torment.</p>
<p>Creator could not help, for to reach this world, he would have to destroy the First World, and still in his boundless love he could not bring himself to end the ungrateful beings, who did not not even know Creator thanks to the treacherous silence of his servants.</p>
<p>Yes, my brother, this sounds like bad news all around. It is the worst news - Creator cannot save the loyal and true, Rovagug imprisoned by traitors; and disease, deformity, savagery, and death grow ever more powerful in the hands of the so-called Gods. Where, you ask is the Good News?</p>
<p>The Good News, my brother, is simple. Rovagug grows strong again. Rovagug stirs in his cell. Soon, the Rough Beast •will• shatter his cell, and then he •will• shatter this world, throwing the "Gods" down from their thrones, ending our suffering, restoring our essences to the cosmic whole. And when he has sundered this world, he will turn his attention to the First, imperfect, World and tear that down so that the Creator may at least reach his desire. And you and I, brother, the true Essential you and I, not this gross flesh or tawdry soul, but our True, Ideal Essence will become the building blocks of something so wonderful we cannot even envisage it.</p>
