[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 9646418, member: 467"] Yes. Session 4: The Mother of Monsters Taking all the things I learned from the first 3 sessions, I built the Mother of Monsters a little differently. Being a legendary chimera, I gave her 5 zones (Body, Tail, Goat head, Lion head, Dragon head) and gave each its own AC, threshold, attack and legendary action. Note that the MoM still only had 3 legendary actions, and they were all Recharge+ (that is, after use they have a recharge of 6, and a failed recharge means the number reduces by 1). Each zone had a single hit box, and if it filled I did it immediately. As usual, a hitbox filling reset the recharge abilities and gave all the PCs their Heroic Inspiration back. In addition, a zone that was defeated meant that part was gone from the fight and could not attack or use its specific legendary action. I rolled initiative independently for each zone, also. Note that area of effect attacks damaged all zones. The battle was really fun and tense and one character hit 0 HP multiple times (but the paladin got them back up; no one picked either the cleric or the druid for this session). My intent is to take everything i learned and formally write up the rules for this kind of thing, and then decide what to do with it, if anything. [/QUOTE]
