So I'm trying to pull together a coherent backstory and an antagonist in general for the adventure (potential campaign) I'm planning. Here's what I've got so far.... My PC's will show up at a village at the base of a mountain range. The village has been plagued by wyvern riding barbarians for...

This is exactly the type of comment i was looking for! Thank you very much for your wonderful ideas ☺. You've got some real creativity about you. Oh, and prefer dark plots 😉

This is an excellent idea and certainly not a direction I would have taken. Thank you for your input! If I don't use this one for my next adventure I'll certainly use it in the future ;)

Wow! You may as well have written an entire adventure for me. Well done and thank you 😉. That being said, I probably should have mentioned that I had been considering hags for this plot line but didn't think it was a good idea since I just used a hag in my last adventure. What do you think? Is...

I would even appreciate someone listing them in the order which they find most interesting.

So I'm trying to plan the next adventure for my group. I gave them a list of ten possible plot hooks to choose from. Below are the ones they picked out as their favorites. I need help fleshing out some of the ideas. Anyone care to throw in their two cents on any of the entries? P.S. Some of...

They are a level 3 party.

Mighty impressive dungeon! As far as the NPC prisoner that can provide a hook later on, this advice got my wheels turning. I'm not sure how to reasonably incorporate it because this is a very primitive island, but it may help give the PC's direction when they get to the next adventure and have...

Love this movie! Good to know there are others out there who can still appreciate the classics. ;) What do you think about loot? I'm trying to figure out how to balance the amount of money/stuff I give to my players. I feel like it's better to error on the side of abundance.

Okay guys, I'm planning my first dungeon (in this case a Yuan-ti temple ruin). It will be sparsely inhabited since the Yuan-ti population on this island is just starting to rebuild after the long hibernation. My problem is I'm afraid that in order to have any reasonable number of opponents in...

These three points were especially helpful. Thank you very much!

This drives me nuts as well. Though when you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail I suppose.

Yes, so far this has seemed like the best way to draw them in. Hopefully it will get easier as they become more comfortable.

Love it! This is the kin of practical advice I need to hear. Thank you very much! I think I will be incorporating the advice about the bullywugs potentially offering secret entrance information on the temple. I also like the examples on the tone of the upcoming interrogation scene.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my earlier questions. I feel bad because if you read my post at the top of page five you'll see that I've already made it through session two and have a whole bunch of new questions, lol. But I still appreciate reading what you wrote. In particular, I find...

This is what I feel like I need the most practical advice on... dungeon design. Thank you. I will take this advice to heart as I work on deisgning the temple.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response! I went ahead and replied to a few of your points/questions below (sorry, I don't know how to use the multi-quote feature). "as a casual reader, it's not clear what the hag's actual motives / goals were here, but I'll assume she was trying to...

Session #2 Update So this time my players were less shy and I felt that if they struggled with participation it was more because they just aren't used to thinking about things outside of combat and conversations directed straight at them. I think this will come with time. I used accents and...

Thank you anyway. And yeah, I'm aware of the forum and already have my question posted there and a few other places. As I suspected however, enworld is the only place I've gotten any responses from yet. Love it here.

Hey there! Thank you so much for taking the time to give me such a detailed response. It always helps to hear other's thoughts and tips. As far as the quote from above goes I happen to know what your problem is... all the color schemes do work *BUT* when you export them to CC at first they will...
