Jack uses 2 hit dice for 6 HP (3+3) during the short rest, bringing him back to 12 (out of 12 max) HP. Did the dice rolls on D&D Beyond. Jack's got 1 hit die left. Hope that might be enough to get through the Underdark passages. If we're going to go this far without long rests on a regular...

I'd prefer a temporary solution for the magic missile trap, as long as we aren't taking further damage. A permanent or semi-permanent solution might at some point lead to infiltration of the Underdark into the dwarven temple. I'd rather not come back someday, or hear word from afar, that the...

Thanks. I was dealing with pneumonia and flu IRL but eventually made my saving throw. :D

Hey everyone, this is unrelated to our campaign, but I wanted to share with fellow nerds. I'm a Patreon supporter of HexRoll, which just released its 2e version out of beta today. Worth a look if you enjoy OSR sandbox games! It's a human-created procedural generator that creates very detailed...

Knowing @Quickleaf yeah I'd say we should check for traps. :LOL:

Jack’s mind races as he watches the massive ice toad settle into position. The aura of cold the toads emit seems to be affecting the weep holes, and an idea sparks in his mind. Hmm, if their cold aura can block the magical missiles, maybe he can help by making more ice too. He reasons that...

Jack gets up off the floor with a slight groan and pats his leather outfit to check for signs of damage while dusting himself off. He nods and grins, thinking that the gamble paid off handsomely, all considered. The party hears his voice, off in the distance and echoing around the corner...

Great! I'll propose the solution in the IC thread then, and between Aric and Zeth and Jack, we should hopefully be able to get everyone across.

Looks like we need 3 decoys for each time the trap triggers. We could try doing it all at once, or we could go a little slower and reset the decoys for each individual as they run across. Aric can use his bonfire, Jack can use mage hand to hold a torch at a safe distance and druidcraft to...

I'm not sure whether Alma would be able to "hear" the thoughts that Jack tried to convey to her telepathically. If not, no worries. :D

At first, Jack responds verbally to Alma, in a wry tone, "If you think this is a bad idea, you should have seen my first dozen other ideas!" Then, turning to look at her while the voices are speaking, he suddenly realizes that Alma's lips aren't moving. There must be some mind-to-mind...

Jack's willing to be an instigator. For the sake of proper roleplay, I'm trying to decide whether Jack would be aware that it's Alma communicating with him telepathically? Or would the voices seem unfamiliar?

"That's it, Aric, now you've got those magic missiles roasting and toasting! Let them chew on that instead of us." Jack grins widely as he claps Aric on the shoulder. "Alma, could you tell our new toadies to keep their croaks calm and rest their rumps? Just explain that we'll soon be on a...

"Good thinking, Alma. How about we strike a deal with our froggy friends? Let them know we're heading into the Underdark soon. If they join us, we can help them find some tastier, less toxic treats along the way. One bite of us, and they'll be croaking for a different reason!" Jack's fingers...

What if we try to use the magic bonfire again, but this time away from the toads? Then, while the magic missiles are targeting the bonfire (assuming it targets heat in general), we try to make a break for it to reach the Arcane Gem Press? We might not want to disable the trap permanently, if...

Jack tilts his head, puzzled by the harmonic croaks echoing through the cavern. “Such beautiful creatures! If only I could understand them better,” he muses with a whisper, eyes flicking to the zombie’s silver necklace. “That necklace might be just the thing we need.” As Jack fades back into...

Congratulations!!!

Following his companions' gaze, Jack is able to make out some hazy shadows down the hallway. Intending to show the mystery creature that the party means no harm, he gathers up a handful of fey energy, his wings fluttering lightly as he holds his palms open. Tiny motes of light and glittering...

@Quickleaf are you a Dr. DM now? 👨‍🎓

Jack proceeds to gather up the remnants of about 5 zombie arms, holding them like an armload of firewood, and gets ready to toss them into the room, past the point where movement causes the magical light to appear. “There sure is something going on with that trap. Just can’t put my finger on...
