She rolled lucky and my grapple failed.  I was wondering about the manacles because the thief rogue uses manacles as his cunning action to shackle people’s legs together.  I thought it’d be fun if he shackled the wizard to my barbarian. I semi agree that it’s plot armour.  On the other hand, every wizard I play has dimension door for exactly that reason.  I see plot armour as more the dm preventing certain outcomes to bring the villain back.  Like, we defeat the villain but, instead of her dying, she falls into a river and washes away only to show up later.  Dimension Door is mechanically sound way to escape.   I think, if we can prevent it, he won’t fudge it</blockquote>
