[QUOTE="Slit518, post: 7232986, member: 6803713"] Is Tomb of Annihilation a Mega-Dungeon? I was running a mega-dungeon for 5th edition with a few friends. First, you can have certain magics not work in the dungeon. For example mine was any teleporting, plane shifting, resurrection magic. Second is emphasis on survival gear, such as food, water, torches, etc... If they want to dedicate spells (resources) to this, allow them to. Darkvision doesn't discern detail, just basic ideas. So if somebody has Darkvision and they are in the dark, you could give them vague ideas of something, but they can miss the finer details. Encounter things are a good thing. This is how I run mine - 1-15 is Nothing 16-20 is Roll from the table. I then have a second 1-20 where I have the encounter list. I pre-roll a bunch of rolls, usually around 100. I will have 100 pre-determined outcomes from the encounter table. Each time the party enters a room or hallway for the 1st time, I tick one off one from the encounter table. (planned rooms/scenarios don't need to consult the encounter table) Each time the party makes a loud sound, I tick one off from the encounter table. Each time the party rests (Short Rest or Long Rest), I tick one off for each hour of rest from the encounter table. An encounter disrupts the rest, no rest benefit is given. A character with proper night's rest, sufficient drink, and sufficient food could gain a point of Inspiration upon the morning. Characters that get gravely injured could suffer a "wound", a level of exhaustion. The more "wounded" they are, the more exhaustion they have. Taking proper care of a wound upon a long rest and using a hit-die can relieve one level of exhaustion. No more than 1 level can be removed at once. Exhaustion can also be given to a character who has had insufficient Sleep, Drink, or Food. Levels of exhaustion accrued this way can be taken care of by doing whichever of the 3 activities caused it. Characters can not gain Inspiration while they suffer any levels of exhaustion. [/QUOTE]
