Ooh, the lake melting idea would actually work quite well since this environment is within an ice capped mountain. Thanks!

Anyone know how the passage of time is denoted in under-ground environments? Particularly years? Since they don't have access to the sun and stars I'm a bit stumped on this. Are seasons ever a thing? Thanks.

Thanks everyone. Your input is appreciated. Love that I can come to this board whenever I get stuck. Wish me luck for tonight's session.

So, I planning next week's session and I decided to re-skin a session I ran for a 1x1 years ago (and can barely remember). I need help fleshing out the details and adding in some extra elements. Here's what I have so far... The group is arrives at a small fishing village on the edge of a giant...

Unfortunately you chose a culture that's very underrepresented in fantasy art. This was the best I could find that fits your description.... http://conan.paintings.free.fr/?page_id=488&lang=fr

Here is a link to my Pinterest board full of portraits on "non-white/western" men. Hope you find something helpful.... https://www.pinterest.com/denalz/rpg/exotic-men/

This will be the next errand he sends them on. Awesome chance to run a heist session. Thank you!

This is the idea I'm going with for tonight's game, thanks a lot!

So my party need the help of a master scryer in order to advance the main plot. The guy I have in mind is willing to help, but for a price. I need several ideas on what he might demand of the party as they will likely need his help more than once. Ideally, I'd like whatever he asks them to do to...

Not a very honorable bunch your PC's, eh? Lol!

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing.

*Bump*

I really loved reading through the example rivals listed on page 124-125 of Xanathar's Guide. I only wish there were more than two. Anyone know of any links to similar examples? Or does anyone have a few of their own they would like to share?

I need to design an "Arcane Order" of sorts. I've tried googling resources to help me come up with some ideas on how an order like that might govern itself but I'm not able to find anything. Despite loving D&D, I don't usually like high fantasy books so I have very little inspiration on how...

I have a paladin and a wizard who, despite being totally different, travel together because the paladin's family was murdered by the fiend that the wizard had been tracking down for years. They have a common enemy now.

Haha! This is too true :D I really like the general idea of the heirs needing to be "corrupted" in some way in order for them to be of use to Morvek. That train of though got me to thinking... maybe they are only of use to Morvek if the have not been "corrupted". Perhaps there could be some...

Thanks for reading that huge post and thank you for the compliments! And yeah, I've probably been a bit over-dramatic about all of this. It's just felt like a gigantic curve ball to work around and I haven't been sure I'm up to the task until now. People like you give me much needed...

You guys have provided some great ideas. My problem seems much smaller to me now than it did before. Thanks for that. Anyway, for those who are curious, here is the over-arching campaign that I had planned out. I'll try to condense it. The Villain: The main antagonist is a yet-to-be-seen...

Thank you all for the ideas and encouragement. At this point I think I'm going to try to salvage the story. Not sure if I'll change anything or not. Most likely I'll just give up on my "mystery" and let the PC's use the information as they will and plan something else as many of you have...

So long story short: I accidentally emailed a brand new player my document which contained all of my antagonist's motivations/plans/backstory and also my major campaign plot twists that would not have been revealed for another year or so most likely. The worst part is I didn't know I emailed him...
