    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss OOC

    Let me know if you guys want to roll forward with the (former) plan to enter via the wharves. The shrine you're being asked to desecrate (purge?) is at the water's edge, by the wharves. If folks are still in agreement that this is the best course of action (with water breathing from...

    D&D 5E (2014) [IC] Creamsteak's Princes of Elemental Evil

    Sensing Miles' interest in further investigation of the tavern, Dent stepped backward away from the door. "I'm betting the door is warded to prevent sounds from extruding, but feel free to have at it. I'll watch the hall while you sally forth." Move to D10.

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    Plooploopeen seemed to settle something for himself in his own head. He nodded once, then continued speaking. "The Deep Father shrine is the one you'll want. It is closest to the wharves, and constructed in ill fashion by my daughter and her minions. Sloobludop is home to perhaps five...

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd - Death House

    "We could just leave." Girri mused. "I don't suppose you tried that?" She was quiet a beat. "I don't remember why we're here in the first place, to be honest. Something about a pair of kids outside in the square, and maybe a monster in the basement. But we never found a way down?" Blue...

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd - Death House

    "Right," said Girri for the second time in just a few seconds. "You never did say what 'one of those' was, exactly." She eyed Wergil's chest as if examining the area where he'd been wounded would yield answers, then nodded at Mr. Aldershot. "Sticking together seems a smart move. So does...

    D&D 5E (2014) [IC] Creamsteak's Princes of Elemental Evil

    Dent shook his head no at Kubeba. "Carradoc has the right of it. Open the door, toss in a fireball, close the door, and let's be done with it. We've better things to do than drink with dwarves. 'Sides, if any survive, we can save them for afters, and come back later for a bit of sport."

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    Credit: WotC . . . Cartographer: Jared Blando Plooploopeen listened mutely to Kamael's inquiries. "First, you will need this." He gestured to an underling, who handed over a rolled up scroll that, when unfurled, proved to be a map of Sloobludop. Both shrines were marked on the map. The...

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    This sounds right to me, too. I was thinking water breathing + wharves, with Solace as forward scout. I'll let Kobold Stew weigh in whether he remembers Solace volunteered to scout. Conversely, maybe ya'll don't like that plan anymore and want to approach the wharves all of you at once (or do...

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd - Death House

    "Right," said Girri, yawning and stretching. She'd slept during the rest, curled in a small ball, at Kasimir's feet--not unlike a cat. For once, sleep had come easy; it was warm inside the house, and even though there were things here that spooked the mind and chilled the spine, it beat...

    D&D 5E (2014) LIFE DRAIN (Specter, Wraith, Wight, et al)

    Noting the smiley, which Sacrosanct has said is intended to convey levity, I'll pause to clarify. IG is DMing for a group of fellow DMs. One of us is also, I believe, a game designer for an alternate gaming system. All of us are working professionals. Probably more importantly, we're all...

    D&D 5E (2014) [IC] Creamsteak's Princes of Elemental Evil

    Dent stared a beat longer, then ventured, "Half a moment." He swiftly closed the door, taking care for once not to bang it closed, then turned to his colleagues. "Ayup. Dwarves. About sixty of 'em. Drinking, by the look of it. Red eyes. Oh, and one gnome." Mirth filled his voice...

    D&D 5E (2014) [RAVENLOFT] [5e] Death House OOC

    I'm at work and away from my MM, but the difference in interpretation boils down to the word "after" in the MM Life Drain description. It's ambiguous. Reading it, my gut instinct is that the Wergil should be at 15/15 at the end of the long rest (he would not, however, be back at 15/15 were the...

    D&D 5E (2014) [IC] Creamsteak's Princes of Elemental Evil

    Seeing nothing approaching nor any other sign of trouble, Dent continued forward toward the inn. He made directly for the door, which he opened. Move: X13

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    The kuo-toa warrior seems unfazed by Kago's stare; indeed, he shifts a hair closer to the orc. His movements are unlike those of men or orcs. Or even goblins. Every gesture is alien.

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    I don't remember if I provided a map of Sloobludop. But I've for sure got one at home ('cause I bought Jared Blando's maps for the campaign). I'll provide the map later tonight (a redacted version, I think I have those on file). Ploopploopeen shifted his gaze to Brinn and responded, "Your...

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss IC

    Oh, no you don't, mon ami. :) There's no room for abdication in PbP. One of the kuo-toa warriors, one of the two lightning priests Kago thought, cozied up to the orc and sat down. The creature got right up into Kago's personal space, closer than the orc was used to or comfortable with...

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss OOC

    Level 4 it is. I think maybe I'd just granted level 4 right before Ce'rek joined, that could be why I have the sense of having the level-up on my my mind. Thanks; we're doing level-ups by milestone, so this helps me remember that encounters since the last level-up include the fight with the...

    I noticed your sig, and thought it wonderfully useful. Thanks for doing that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd - Death House

    Girri turned to Wergil. "You're hurt? And what does Kasimir mean, 'stuck its hand right through' your chest? That's not possible!" She eyed Wergil with suspicion. "What sort of thing did that?" Long rest is okay by me. Let's just do it, get it done, and not wiffle waffle over the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss OOC

    Question for the crowd: What level were ya'll at? The Rogue's Gallery in our Community has you at level 4, with an effective date of March 30, 2016 (when Wrex joined and posted Ce'rek). I had rather been thinking that there'd been a recent level up, however. Thoughts? I can't recall whether...
