    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Sorry this kind of fell off my focus list for a little while. Tarsin also makes his way down the rope. Athletics: 1D20+4 = [10]+4 = 14 He sees the others going through the piles of metal, and does his best to keep himself composed and avoid the awestruck look of his companions. He is a...

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

    You're much better at this than I am! At least when it comes to horror tropes. I leaned into the dense fog that fills the ravine and made the bottom into a bone strewn wasteland of cold, clammy, visibility impairing fog. That made it harder to locate his previous body's (scattered from the 1000...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Taking the cue, Tarsin walks out of the darkness toward where Kimet is investigating the doorway. "Magic," he answers, leaving unspoken the "of course." He spares a glance at the bandits, but so long as they don't actively threaten him he otherwise entirely ignores them. He joins Kimet in...

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

    Has anyone ever fleshed out what exists at the bottom of the cliffs off Castle a Ravenloft? One of my PCs was kicked off the bridge by Strahd while unconscious, so he fell to his death. But he had taken the Amber Temple dark gift that causes him to automatically reincarnate, so a new body...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Disregard this if I misunderstood. Tarsin, upon examining the people huddled around the light, quietly says, "These are no Templars. Probably common looters. Maybe they know something of what is in here that we don't." Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    Non-combat Experience

    I'm looking for advice or suggestions for awarding experience for non-combat encounters and activity. The DMG rather unhelpfully points me toward the chapter on creating combat encounters, which has nothing to say about how to assign a CR equivalent, say, to a non-combat challenge. I know the...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Is there any obvious way forward that we've missed? I can't remember any branches we haven't taken since at least the skeletons. Is that right? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    My eyes go wide as I read over the lists, then I thrust the paper back to the gladiator. "Keep this close, Kimet! It is an ancient official writ. 'Let it be known that the bearer is a free person, owned by no man, entitled to all the rights and privileges of citizenship in this stupid...

    "As you wish, my lady," Tarsin replies with a deep, sarcastic bow, before making his way toward the next door. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    "Back off, slave. I'm not doing anything to you, I'm trying to do what I came here for, and that's find out what this place was." Tarsin pushes Kimet off him. Athletics: 1D20+4 = [1]+4 = 5 Well, he attempts to push her off. "You didn't come all the way out into the desert to murder me...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    "A bunch of useless fairy tales!" Tarsin seems distraught by just how different this is than what he was hoping for. "This is not what we came here for!" He begins looking around for another way forward. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Tarsin continues searching through the library for anything that he might consider useful or relevant to what this place is or what powerful secrets it holds. I don't want to force you to make up the contents of a bunch of books. I'm skimming for useful stuff as much as possible. Comprehend...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Tarsin begins inspecting the books enthusiastically, attempting to learn whatever he can from skimming them, with the caveat that he doesn't really know what he's looking for. If they too are written in a foreign script, he casts Comprehend Languages (surreptitiously if possible). Investigation...

    Does there appear to be a similar set of controls on the other side of the door? Investigation : 1D20+3 = [13]+3 = 16 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Tarsin turns to Kanna and says in halfling, "Very clever, little one! I know you were reluctant to come on this expedition, but not for the first time I am glad you're with us." In common he says to everyone, "We have our receiving line, let us proceed!" Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN...

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    Are the skeletons pursuing, either following the now dead Templars or drawn by Chick's torch? If not, Tarsin searches the Templars' bodies as described before. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Dark sun Times of change

    By the light off Chick's torch, Tarsin searches the bodies of the Templars, looking for clues to their mission (in case it was different from ours or they had more information ahead of time), any evidence that they found anything, and anything of value they have on them, in that order of...

    So we can't see by the light of the torch the Templars dropped? Either way Tarsin waits against the wall with his mace out and attacks the first one to come into range. Mace attack: 1D20+6 = [8]+6 = 14 1D20+6 = [18]+6 = 24 If I hit: Mace damage: 1D6+4 = [2]+4 = 6 Sent from my...

    Cool. Aren't you in New Zealand or something? "In the morning" has next to no meaning to us in the rest of the world coming from you. ;)
