    D&D 5E Vecna: Eve of Ruin Coming May 21st!

    Heck, that sounds (and looks) actually really tempting to me. Guess that goes on my "to buy at some point" list. :)

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    Just to conclude this thread: We played 2 weeks ago, and it was a worthy finale. The group had managed to half-free Indomitability, who was grateful enough and just took off towards the shore to finish the seela, while dragging two chars with him. The rest scrambled to catch up, and was...

    WotBS Questions around Book 3 "Shelter from the storm"

    Hello, me again. I'll use this thread to post questions regarding stuff about this book that I'm not completely sure about :) Starting with the event on P6: "Battleground". So, it only looks like Ragesians were killed, but it was actually Dasseni? Who had "filled their boots with sand"? And...

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    OK, so after a 4 month, rl-enforced break, we're set to finally conclude Book 2 tomorrow. When I relayed the background story to my wife, to check how well I have it in my head, she asked a valid question: Why did Anyariel die after the fight with Indomitability. Looks like SHE wasn't infused...

    RPG Evolution - The AI DM: The Downside of Free

    Yeah, just, nobody will ever know it was your work being incorporated, and the LLM won't ever admit to it either (barring leaks and stuff). Not saying that's much different from Jo Average copy-pasting your work and stubbornly pretending it's theirs, but the scale is unfathomably different -...

    RPG Evolution - The AI DM: The Downside of Free

    Yeah, so, maybe we all now stop feeding LLMs (or rather, training them) and stop pretending "But it's fun, and look at the cool art I made with MidJourney" is a good enough excuse? We're by now (hopefully?) all aware of at least the worst social and economical damage LLMs are already causing...

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    Uuuh, I like it. That would be more dramatic, indeed. Good thinking.

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    OH, that's what binds him to the forest? In my head it had been an active choice of Indomitability. Right. Yeah, the blade IS still stuck in his corporeal form, so no escape for now. I read the rules about how to get it out of a moving trillith, so we'll see how this will go.

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    Ok, yeah, makes sense. Thanks. Which means it IS possible for Team PCs-Kazyk to kill Big I, theoretically even while Anyariel's blade is still stuck in it. New options. ;)

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    That flaring up sounds good, very intense. I find that I'm a but hazy on how the whole "indomitability" thing (boon, or in 'Indomitable Spirit') works. "...stabilized whenever he is dying at the start of a turn..." means, Indomitablity will NOT die, right? Goes down, next time his turn comes...

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    Right, makes sense. As for Kazyk. The forest stops burning when...the seela stop singing (slowly, over a day or so)?

    WotBS [Book 2] 'Boss fight' questions

    Ahoy. So, last session my group kinda surprised me by going straight to Indomitability to kill it. Basically they heard Kazyk's offer and went 'yeah, that's the best we've been offered so far - off we go'. By this they missed out on encounters with Gwenevere and Timbre, and they didn't explore...

    D&D 5E Bundle of Holding Offers The Entire 750+ Page War of the Burning Sky 5E Adventure Path For Under $20!

    Obviously I got the bundle, it's way too good a deal not to (this is like the 3rd or 4th time I'm getting it, once even as PoD). Are those PDFs in any way different from what is up on DriveThru currently? Any changes, updates, fixes?
