    TSR Elf Stranded on the Warden: A Short Gary Gygax Story

    I've done that in a campaign, but it was pre-arranged. My friend, Jeremy, was DMing a high level game where the players had decided they had to planar shift from Mysterra (sp?) to Greyhawk to find the McGuffin. I had been DMing a different game in Greyhawk at the time. When they teleported...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    It feels a lot more deadly and my players live in constant fear, but they are really enjoying it. They know that death can strike quickly and that ups the stakes. I have found that this module ramps up the stakes all through the campaign so that by the time they got to the tomb they are ready...

    Room 35. That trap is deadly.

    Session 35- It's a Trap: https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7644219/day-117-1pm-3pm-its-a-trap One PC death, and a new character rolled up on the spot to replace him. The charactermancer is great.

    TPK? Totally possible in there. One of your party transformed to a Yuan-Ti? Hmmm. Waiting with bated breath.

    Probably a wee bit more than two thirds.

    Awesome session. I love it when it comes down to a single dice roll.

    D&D 5E (2014) Languages most used?

    Depends on the campaign. In this one it is Common, Chultan, old Omuan and Elvish. In my last D&D one it was Common and Goblin.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Latest journal entry here: https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7591458/day-117-burp-too-much-wine I had to change history a little and rewrite the end of the previous session, as the player who is Trayzeal was running very late. I didn't want a PvP session without the protagonist there. So...

    D&D General Wax Lemon?

    Urgh, I remember that module. It would be the only one I would consider that I failed to run a fun or engaging game in. I remember I had an action-oriented group, so this module just simply fell flat.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    I'm looking forward to hearing how that goes. More than any other place in ToA, I feel this has the potential to go anywhere depending on player actions and DM decisions.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Here is the journal entry from the last game. I skipped over the giant fight at the start as it's more interesting to play than to report or remember, and my memory is a bit dodgy as it's a week since we played. In this session the group encounter an aboleth, which takes control of the mind of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    To be fair, since they were behind a door I ruled that the blast would do quarter damage. They both made their dex saves, so one took half damage from that (which almost killed him) and the other had evasion so took no damage.

    How long does it take to generally take to set a campaign up

    4 young kids here, full time work and evening work once or twice a week. I only use official published adventures now, and roll20 for maps and so remote people can play too. I read the book thoroughly, then get players to roll characters. I find hooks for each character for personal stuff in the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Here is the session we ran on Thursday: https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7535148/day-116-cheapskate In which we learn that if you want to hide then it's best not to shout at each other.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Here's the latest session. It was good fun. The groups resources are really getting eaten away quickly now, and they were forced to take a long rest at about 1pm. Also, it's a bad idea to throw around necklaces of fireball beads. https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7517544/day-116-unkhs-tomb

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    I found it very much the same. The tomb itself is even more scary where death really does lurk around every corner and a single wrong move could spell doom. For instance, an accident in the session last night led to 64d6 damage (that is not a typo).
