Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

Naturally, my group has dubbed the one guy they've encountered a "werebacon."

He also beat their ass -- they had no magic items and no spellcasters today -- until someone tried to wedge the Crown of the Serpent King (from Tomb of the Serpent Kings) on his head, causing him to momentarily experience horrifying visions, making him flee.

lol!

I came here to suggest you not name them and let the players do that. But looks like they did anyway!
