D&D 5E My PHB smells...

[YourSwordIsMine]

So, just really noticed that my PHB stinks to high heaven... This is the first time I've spent any length of time with it open in front of me while making a character. I noticed that I was getting a little light headed and slightly queasy from it...

Does anyone else have this problem or is it just mine?

It's no Fiend Folio stank, but it is definitely turning my stomach...

My PHB smelled like it came right off the printing press with that nice new fresh paper smell. So no problems on my end.

Maybe it's still RAW ?

It's possible you got one of the ultra-rare copies that include a "special" page of exclusive Great Old One pact warlock abilities.

It would be okay for Monster Manual, but for PH?

It's PH now... I suppose the B stands for "BO"

I'd asked as I didn't know if it was a known issue or if I should contact WoTC about it. I'll send them an email tomorrow.

Smells like... victory.

If the PH is the cause, two PH topics might be unfortunately relevant here:

Class and Action.

Leave your book in a well ventilated area for 24 hours - if you're not returning it.
