I have no need to kill kobolds. If they will walk us through, we can be cautious (Urgan STUDYING all the time!) and no one has to be wounded. I am fine with that, and we can give them some gold at the end. (10gp? enough that it's meaningful for a ten-minute job). Offline for the next few hours...

The ones Urgan makes are better, but they somehow disappear within a day. Mage Hand!

In fact, with his Fast Crafting ability, he can probably make torches. (i.e. pick up sticks.)

He doesn't... Could have done (he just got a new cantrip). I think I chose prestidigitation. Torches!

I didn't add the spoiler tags -- I left them as they were in the other thread, as they had been posted. 🤷‍♂️

Here were my (spoiler covered) initial thoughts from the other thread. spoilers follow.

Yes, I believe this effectively canonizes the fan theory (which had been confirmed I believe in one of the novels (possibly Q in Law by Peter David, the Hulk comic writer).

The unarmored wizard happily lets Merrick lead the way as they proceed into the caves. As they move forward, Urgan is scanning areas he feels could be trapped. Investigation of some area in front of them as they proceed as a bonus action; darkvision 120'; expertise in Investigation.

As the ground slips beneath him, Urgan steps aside with a deftness that surprises even himself. Urgan looks to the others. "See what I mean?" Dex save: 1d20+2=22. What's funny, is Urgan can now take the Study action as a bonus action -- I'll be clear he is doing so in the future!, studying...

Team Caves. Urgan slips through the fissures, staff in hand, his eyes instantly becoming accustomed to the darkness. He says to the others, "Kobolds have reputations for being tricksters, or I guess rather trapsters..." He hesitates, unsure if he's made a joke or not. "Either way, they might...

That's what Purify Food and Drink is for (his next level can be in cleric....) (This is a joke -- he won't be a cleric).

One thought I had re; chickens was that they could be shot at a distance (porduce flame), which would possibly make noise (and make dinner!) but the noise would be there. I also suspect that we might be able to give ourselves some elevation, on a roof of a tent or whatever. If Anson felt he...

A few thoughts on the mechanics: This makes very little sense, unless it also replaces the two skill proficiencies that they get. Changelings are already quite powerful; advantage on every social skill roll through a campaign? Ridiculous. Not a single character ever will keep the Friends...

Having crossed the river, Urgan makes his way towards the entry of the caves, his staff in his hand.

the cart had stood on the bridge, paused momentarily, and the watchword had been shouted out. No response. And so the wagon started to proceed. When he judged the angle as best he could, Urgan made the distraction he had planned -- the scrabbling of rats just below the window on the gate-side of...

I agree that clearing-by-5 also doesn't create verisimilitude. You might think you are more likely to topple the ones in clunky plate armor than those wearing a leather jerkin.

a Plan: I think with what we know, we give the password at the bridge, and as the wagon continues to roll, four of us (including Urgan) bail out just below the tower. Rather than use Fog, I think a minor illusion just below the sill of the parapet on the watchtower would work better as a...

Anson leads the group towards the cures and curiosities shop, trusting that there could be bery much of benefit there to help the larger group. He is very quiet as he does so. Stealth vs DC 10: 1d20+5=21.

When they're ready, Anson helps the woman and her child back into the cellar, with the rations. "We should be moving," he cautions.
