So much happened at dnd tonight. I had literally no idea what they would do so had so much prepped and maybe threw in too much stuff but it was fun. The in between quest sessions are always the most nerve-wracking for me. I never know what to prep and worry people will be bored. But now we have party secrets and a house/tavern with a surly ghost and a new quest to pay for it all.
It was so great! I’m just glad I didn’t bungle my secret mission!
Expectations: Dungeons and Dragons is a high fantasy tabletop roleplaying game. You can be anything your heart desires; go where you please; battle dragons and necromancers; save kingdoms and forge alliances! The only limit is your imagination as you set off on an epic adventure with your friends!
at one point, the cleric was being compelled to do a thing. the paladin grappled the cleric to keep him from doing the thing. the rogue tied the cleric to the paladin. the barbarian grappled the new writhing cleric/paladin mass… just in case. and then the sorcerer threw a net over all three of them, for, what i can only assume, comedic purposes.
once everyone stopped getting cursed or compelled, the paladin decided to activate the “summon an aberration from the outer planes” gate ONE MORE TIME and the party had to fight an aboleth! which they killed! the battle could have gone very differently if a few rolls had changed. but ya gotta be proud of a plucky band of 3rd level characters that brings down a CR 10 monster.
even if the summoning of said monster was completely unnecessary.
I didn’t want to miss the train to Hogwarts is all.
I haven’t even tried to tackle a summary drawing yet. There were so many near deaths and tricky rope work and attempts to lick and fondle evil I might not have the skill to capture it all. But Bee will hug or hit until it gets sorted out those are her only two moves.
