    D&D 5E (2014) Prepping for Princes

    Reading the intro I'm not really into the idea of these four cults sitting around making bombs and getting ready to destroy the world. I prefer the Idea that the four prophets are in competition to see who can become a Prince of Elemental Evil. They are not really concerned with the world...

    Problem player in my group

    I agree with Rougerogue and killing it with kindness. If you guys are all friends you should be able to lighten up the mood and keep it that way. I would go the friendly ribbing route myself. Insist on the fun. It sounds like things have gotten ackward so you gotta break that ice.

    Any tips for Pyramid of Shadows? Any handouts?

    I haven't played Pyramid, but I'm curious to know if you have done any sort of write-up on your Thunderspire sessions? Seems like a really fun module. edit: One idea would be to use have some sort of prop for the head of Gharash: a fake skull or some other recycled Halloween toy...
