How Genasi Sleep and Other Quandaries

[RyvenCedrylle]

There was a really good thread a while back about "explain why this is cool" - basically one person asks why something that doesn't seem that flavorful or interesting to them grabs someone else's imagination and the person who answers drops the next one in line. This thread will be for 'how does that work?' questions. I'll start off:

How do stormsoul and watersoul genasi sleep? I mean, all those spikes for hair, it seems like you wouldn't be able to lay your head down effectively flat. Do they sleep standing up? Maybe laying on their stomachs instead of back or sides? And do firesoul genasi need flame-retardant pillows?

How do the stormsoul and watersoul genasi sleep? Usually, they bring hammocks to string between two trees. They make sure that the gaps in the netting are large enough for their spikes to fit into.

Fire genasi usually take a small shovel or a trowel and overturn and break up a patch of earth wherever they are going to sleep and use that a pillow. Freshly tilled soil can be surprisingly soft for a short period of time. If the soil they overturn is filled with flamable material, they may pre-burn it before they bed down so that it doesn't catch into an uncontrollable fire during the night.

This makes me wonder if Dragonborn ever accidentally spray their breath weapon when they have a bad dream.
