You know, I almost picked a cheeky title pretending to be OGL click-bait just to lighten the mood a little, but then I thought to myself, "Well, is it my opinion that the mods 'round here aren't already slammed with posts they have look over?" So I didn't do it.
No, this here is a much more humdrum sort of question, but a sincere one: has anyone used Baba Yaga in one of their campaigns before? My party is in the Feywild and they truly are babes in the wood at the moment. See, they're actually on their way to try to face off against Baba Yaga, which has alarmed their dear, loving DM (me) to no end. I mean, she's really, really hard to square off against, isn't she? I have ways of preventing the TPK, but I also want to make sure I've dotted i's and crossed t's properly before the proverbial fan discharges its inevitable effluvium.
What are her greatest strengths and her greatest weaknesses just under standard D&D lore? (Never mind the actually mythological creature--she scares me even more.) Anyone know? When playing her, what generally works well and what doesn't?
