    Like many others our party use the following - 10% of all loot goes direct to the kitty - Usually one of the Party act as the treasurer for the kitty - rest is split between the party - including any NPCs - Magical items are given to the most suitable character

    Intro D&D Adventure for a mixed group

    hi there sorry I didn't mean that it needs to be completed in one day, I am not sure how the 2 new players are going to react. I am trying to find something to play that is good enough for a long afternoon of story and if they want to continue then we can do. LMoP could be a good shout as I...

    D&D 5E Curse of Strahd - Finale Help - Spoilers

    hello they are all level 10, I was hoping to have the battle at just a little bit difficult. The warlock is the most vocal about thinking strahd is weak and afraid of them. The warrior was charmed previously by him and despite having the sun sword is wary of him

    D&D 5E Curse of Strahd - Finale Help - Spoilers

    Greetings all so after many months of great adventuring we arrive at the finale. I have started piecing it all together but I need some help with finishing it off. The 5 PCs ( Sorcerer, Cleric, Fighter, Warlock and Rogue ) are about to head into the Crypt area and then ultimately Strahd's...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    The foam board sounds great and does make it feel more epic. These are things that should have been in the book! I filled in the meetings with reports from 2 other groups of Adventurers and other fluff from the realms. Sean over at http://thecampaign20xx.blogspot.co.uk/?m=1 had a group...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    Like the idea of the tactical approach, I also did something similar I used a first edition map of the region ( the orange background one ) this was to simulate the map the Council had and then talked through the plans. I had seen something similar in the supplement (...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    Hi there Good question, I also felt that the book as written didn’t really flesh out the final great battle that is building throughout the book. So I had a pre-battle scene in which I described each of the factions and allies assembled. I then had a little bit of the battle start, as the...

    D&D 5E Help with a were-creature bitten PC

    Hello all Another day another Curse of Strahd question. So one of the characters was bitten in the werewolf den by a werebear ( I popped a couple in to make sure the encounter wasn’t too much of a breeze for level 8 folks ). Anyway, I now have a conundrum around how to play this. Next...

    D&D 5E Paladin oath breaker question?

    thanks for the replies, I will chat to the player when we meet on Thursday to suggest he uses the original Paladin ability. I agree with you folks that as written it is bad

    D&D 5E Paladin oath breaker question?

    Hello all So we have started a new adventure path and one of my players has asked to use the non standard Paladin Oath Breaker class https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Oathbreaker_(5e_Class) This takes the original class and twists it slightly. It does work with his character concept...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Curse of Strahd" (and DDAL adventures)

    after a bit of a break we are heading into Argynvostholt, and the joy that a spooky mansion brings. so far my PCs are outside of the mansion and just about to go in.... I was wondering how others have played this, did you add anything extra? did you hand wave the empty rooms?

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    I decided that the combined armies would start a great battle outside of the mountain range. They would be detected and all of that action would happen off screen. I added a scene with some speeches for the players to get a sense of scale of what would be lost if they failed their mission...

    D&D 5E Curse of Strahd - Werewolf Den - possible spoilers

    Thanks for the replies. They have helped me resolve the issues at hand. I have decided to keep most of what is in the book as written and just bumped Kiril slightly. I had Zuleika escape and be captured by a group of the werewolves, the PCs then stumbled into this scene and saved her. She...
