two fire elementals...a big one an' a bigger one 🔥🔥

Yeah was pondering about the one-hour friendliness and whether that was somewhat like an "attunement" (as it were) but the iron flask description makes no comment about this.

Soo.....in one game I DM, the party has just encountered an angry huge elemental. They happen to have an iron flask that already contains a (smaller) elemental. Where we stopped for the night, battle was about to ensue. The iron flask-holder proposed releasing the elemental it contains (which...

Right.... Black Dragon Warrior

ok this critter might be coming up as a boss in my campaign in the next 6 weeks or so :LOL:

That's really cool - I like that ....maybe my pirates will start wearing masks too (chuckles evilly)

ok that's fine - #3 added

ok, dumb question - why does the snake constrict anyone if it can't do anything at all? Should it be able to bite at least?

Given the space issue, I have a better idea - maybe it has a blowgun with which it shoots darts poisoned with its own venom? And it will have 1d10+3 darts at any one time...

Yeah, it's amazing we never thought of this 40 years ago!

I remember DMing in the late 70s and early 80s (Basic D&D and AD&D) and the lore of a world was made solely by the GM and the players just made their PCswith backstories but little else (well, that's how we played it and the modules seemed to concur). Fast forward to the present and there seems...

seems a bit remiss not to give it some sort of missile weapon. could be a either a bow or handcrossbow

that's a good question - am inclined to make it both, mainly for the reason that (like with other lycanthropes) they're in hybrid form 99% of the time when in combat - although another part of me thinks it might be good to reserve for snake form only so there is some advantage to being in snake...

ok deleted climb speed. made neutral evil Senses #2 blindsight 10 ft. (snake or hybrid form only), passive Perception ## Weresnake Abilities #3 STR 13, DEX 16, CON 13, INT 11, WIS 10, CHA 12 (agree on snakey charisma)

Ok - agree on ability stats and AC 13 at bottom Agree on keeping bite mechanic as simple as possible - simplest is CON save or be poisoned - maybe a poisoned subject then has to make a second CON save to avoid lycanthropy.

(a) all venoms have been nerfed to some degree from 1e to 5e though but happy to have it a bit spicier than the wereserpent (b) I'd say its lycanthropy should be infectious as that is one of the key attributes of lycanthropes in dnd (c) am thinking a combination - e.g. Australia's most...

good question. My feeling is that its abilities from 4e suggest to me CR 2 probably a better fit...?

I do prefer weresnake - rolls off the tongue more easily I reckon
