D&D 5E Rime of the Frostmaiden Previews Include a Scroll of Tarrasque Summoning

Some D&D designers and freelancers have been sharing previews of what's inside Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden. Take a look!

When a wizard puts their brain inside a helmless horror.

And this last item... perhaps the less said the better? Ouch!

The wall of jokes!

I believe the wall language is the native tongue of the pink floyd, a voracious predator inhabiting the dark side of the moon.

I'm looking forward to my players trying to use comprehend languages to "speak wall."

Player: I cast comprehend languages and put my ear to the wall. What do I hear?

DM: Hello? Is there anybody out there?

Player: Yes, hello. How are you?

DM: I am...comfortably numb.

Player: Yes, um, well. So, are there any secret doors in this dungeon?

DM: So you are waiting for someone or something to show you the way?

Player: Uh, yeah, show me the way to some treasure and magic!

DM: All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be.

Player: Sigh. Okay, can you just tell me what is on the other side of this wall, mean you. What's on your other side?

DM: And if I show you my dark side, will you still hold me tonight?

Icicle Auril: I have won mortals, now bear witness to an Unending Age of Winter!
Proceeds to begin the Ritual that a Nat 1 allowed to happen.

Thief: Well, guess we got no choice. Pulls out the Tarrasques scroll

Bard:But you can't use that. It may stop this, but we'll die and the Realms will have to deal.....with THAT!

The Thief looks at his two dead companions before Auril, back at the Bard, and finally back at the scroll.

Thief: Ah smeg it all! Let Elminster, Drizzit, or some other poor sod deal with it.

Uses the Scroll while the Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance main theme is playing.
