[QUOTE="toucanbuzz, post: 8282152, member: 19270"] Ugh, why would the DM do that, even on Rolld20! No wonder he wants the summons dead instantly. Didn't mean to insinuate you were! Noting that the DM may have some personal beef with summons. Personally, I don't mind summons in our tabletop games so long as the player helps speed up play, such as monster stat cards to hand out to other players so they can help with the labor. Rolld20, even better for management. Forbiddance isn't easy or cheap, and given the vast size of that castle, it's going to take several to cover all the places PCs could go. I suppose if Strahd went through all this extra effort to find a high level cleric to shield his place against little ole PC summoner, consider it a compliment? Also, unless he just happened, coincidentally, to have a permanent one in place against fey, there's some high level cleric running around Barovia helping out, and that person needs what may be a steady supply of rare and unusual components (powdered ruby and rare incense, much less "holy water!") Perhaps you can cut off his helper? It's the kind of nefarious cunning scheme my players would probably come up....they're always plotting... [/QUOTE]
