Especially first or second level characters - were they that indisposable?I vividly remember all the TPKs and near TPKs I or my players suffered - and hey, I remember them fondly. They are war stories, battle scars. When we were cornered in a haunted inn and slain to the last by low level undead. When the party was exploring some ruins and got eaten by a Shambling Mound.Your session could have been awesome, the party making a desperate stand against the plant monsters and failing. It could have been heroism, and the material great tales are made of. Oh well, I guess that campaign was at least good once they woke up and moved on.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
