    Greetings everyone so my CoS campaign rumbles on and after s great time in Krezk the players are planning on heading back via the Werewolf den. Reading the chapter as written and the fact that they are now level 8, I feel that I need to spice up this encounter. Apart from maybe...

    D&D 5E (2014) CUrse of Strahd - Vallaki help

    The Pcs hatched a plan to burn down the shop once they found the spawn upstairs. I decided that when the pcs were looking for a place to hide Izek that the shop would have a small cellar. On the plus side they got the coffin maker out and paid for him to start again. PCs are a weird thing :)

    D&D 5E (2014) How to deal with a Warlock gaining Detect Magic as a cantrip

    hello all time for some help and advice… I have a PC who is a warlock character who has the Detect Magic spell as a cantrip. He enables this at all times, making it quite difficult for me to have any surprises for the PCs. Any magical traps are seen as are any hidden weapons. How...

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    That sounds pretty awesome I also changed the end and used the finale from the Dragon magazine Scales of war. Big fight on a platform suspended by flames. I cut most of the fighting encounters and just had a big finale at the end. For the dragon base the pcs were one of the 3 strike teams...

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd - Enemy of Strahd - SPOILERS

    hi all so after running the Madam Eva reading the enemy of Strahd is Rictavio. Which is ok for me, but I am not sure how best to deal with this in Vallaki. One thought is after revealing there is a fight with Izek?? and Rictavio can then say he needs to collect his stuff and ask the PCs to...

    D&D 5E (2014) If you've ever left D&D, what made you come back?

    This sounds very similar to me, after Uni purged most of gaming books. We played D&D 2e but left it to play Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay as it felt more British and allowed more felixibility. 2009 after discussions at work with like minded folks started back up. We we got into 5e as we were...

    Which official 5E adventures have you played through?

    so far DM Tyranny of Dragons Lost Mines Curse of Strahd - just starting Played Lost Mines Princes of the Apocalypse - currently 16 sessions into this For me, I think the Tyranny AP was really good, but did require a crap load of work from me to get it into shape, especially the second book...

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    One of my regrets of this campaign is that I didn't expand on Talis at the end. I played the scene with her as she was a kind host and then added rumours of her cruelness. I also had one of the PCs be a childhood friend. Sent from my iPhone using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    Good question. For me the white mask was "lost" so it wasn't a massive wild goose chase per se for the players. They assumed that it was taken by the big bad. As for Sea Ice escapade I played this as they were after a specialist rather than the horn its self. So you could have it that...

    D&D 5E (2014) RoT: Metallic Dragon Council

    I am glad the Thay chapter wasn't cut as we had a load of fun with it. I expanded it slightly 1. A location with the teleportation circle Pcs needed to travel to and then I had a fight scene with Red Wizards loyal to Rath 2. With some maps of a keep from a Pathfinder module ( google...
