Four, but yeah - the job is to collect them up and use them to break into the central vault, which is where the Staff is expected to be. The Idols double as the "keys" that disable the wards that are placed on the Vault. Imani discovered all of this through extensive research.

It IS pretty frustrating to SEE them on pallets for three weeks in a row, only to be told that they don't trust me not to break street date, so I can't have any yet, and then watch as everyone online gets theirs in the mail directly from WotC, yeah.

D&D 5e 2024 is absolutely selling great. I fully believe that anyone who claims otherwise is... let's say, using "wishful thinking". That said, I have to admit, that I'm starting to agree with @Mark Craddock. I'll explain: When I first heard Mark make the claim (a long time ago now) that D&D...

Okay! Finally! I have posted my Judgement for @Fenris-77 vs @GMMichael in the Tournament Thread!

Iron DM 2025 FitzTheRuke’s Judgement for Round 2, Match 2: Fenris-77 vs GMMichael Following the Rules Both @Fenris-77’s “Lavender Vortex of the Barista God” (Hereafter: “Vortex”) and @GMMichael’s “A Convenient Prophecy” (“Prophecy”) came in on time, though Prophecy was close enough to the...

It could be, like I suppose that it once was, short for "Modular Adventure".

A single session's worth of material! Honestly, it's about time that things were written for that timescale. I still don't like the term "Adventure" for that, but I guess that it fits. It reminds me of the word "Module", which some of us old folks still use interchangeably with "Adventure"...

Team Lakfiltrate (Team "Fusion"?) The individual in question, Stryke, returned to the new gathering. It was clear that he was somewhat uncomfortable being around more surface-world strangers, but he was satisfied that the numbers might make the upcoming task more achievable. He said, when...

I think the map makes for a very, very interesting multi-part encounter. I'll acquiesce that it can be seen as more than a single encounter, but I still don't think it should be called an "Adventure". Looks like we might need some new words to describe the scales between Encounter, Adventure...

I think the format is fine, and it is a pretty cool encounter! However, I agree with others that this shouldn't ever be called a free "Adventure". It is a free Encounter, slottable into any adventure, and it should be celebrated for what it is.

I should have my Judgement up sometime Friday. I've got to write my conclusion, and give it all a re-read, but I'm almost done.

My buddy @Kobold Stew might have some insight, as he knows a thing or two on this subject, I suspect. ... Once he knows that it's not about the fellah who calls his Blog "the Alexandrian".

I am about halfway done. Stuff came up Mon/Tue. I started working on it again this morning, but got nowhere before my wife needed help with something and ran out of time before heading to work. It's top of my mind, though! You'll see it soon, I think.

Team Lake & Team Infiltrate The Kayaks were not heavy, but the were somewhat awkward, occasionally scraping on the walls, or tipping sideways when carried over the uneven and steeply-plunging ledge-trail. Loklafd was at the front of the train, with one hand on a kayak's bow, and the other...

I know I'm late to the party, but... Fireball can't be an "Encounter Ender" when we're in an edition where you get to do it multiple times a day. It also used to have the drawback of being difficult to place without the sacrifice of 'friendly fire'.

Working on it! It takes me about four or five hours to write a judgement, what with how often I also go back and re-read the entry in its entirety. I can't always make that time in a single sitting, which adds time when I have to remember where I was at and what I wanted to say... Plus, I...

Team Lake With Guldred eager to reistablish his standing with his lizardfolk community, it seemed best for the group to return to the upper lake. Loklafd suggested that it would be far easier to carry the kayaks up along the bank-ridge, rather than to try to paddle them up the steep, narrow...

Team Caves It turned out that Pikki and the other kobolds had fled down the tunnel to the east, returning to their caves. On their way out, they had trampled out the waning torch that had been dropped there, and had murdered the unconscious mercenary guard. This was all discovered some time...

Yes, that area is also ultimately where Stryke is leading Team Infiltrate. They're just trying to get away from that Elf Fanatic lunatic and find a place to have a short rest. The cave with the obelisk will do, but they've got to get rid of pursuit first.
