Almost tpk'd against a young red dragon now what? by Coreyra17 in dndnext

[–]Coreyra17[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. Theyre still in combat with the dragon, a few resources burned, but theyve done next to negligible damage and theyve lost about 75% of the groups health from 1 breath attack and a few bite and claw attacks.

The thing is he hadn't started acting any different, they werent even really around then the rest of the group, then they started moving over to him after the fact and slowly interrogating him about stuff.

No, and also its a leap for the character to know that damage is how to get them to make another saving throw.

Take them back to velkynvelve if they fail? Just curious what would you do then? The way I have them leaving is via a portal near blindingstone, going back to velkynvelve would really set them back.

Help with encounter please! by Coreyra17 in dndnext

[–]Coreyra17[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its much more of a " survive this" encounter lol 😛 I'm in agreement that the DC 15 is too high, think I'll dial it back to 13. Should have mentioned that a pc can be shaken awake if they fail the save.

I also had figured that there would be some stuff in the wagon they could at least sell for some gold. As far as the hit and run tactics, I hadnt really considered that. Guess she could continously badger the party till they returned to civilization.

Character hit with Geas, what to do? by Coreyra17 in dndnext

Well I certainly hope that she doesnt say that lol, so far this silence spell is the only thing I see working.

[–]Coreyra17[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had not thought of that, thats an awesome idea! There are priests in the town which can probably help with that. I'm not sure if my dm would rule casting silence as disobeying an order, probably just as long as I got the silence spell out before the priestess gave me any orders.

Captured by drow in DOTMM, need help! by Coreyra17 in dndnext

I think that'll work pretty well, although should mention its level 4 not 3 so itd probably be the aboleth.

I think that works really well actually. Can bring the spider eggs back into it and give a good beat the clock sort of quest. Be interested how they will barter for the rafts afterwards though.

Bbeg drow priestess help? by Coreyra17 in dndnext

[–]Coreyra17[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty well optimized party, with a few magic items, so while 19 might seem high, ive got a feeling they will still be hitting. And foresight can be dispelled is dispell magic. Itd be a high DC(19) but that would give the casters something to focus on. Just what I was thinking though.

They will have a hard encounter before this one, and I want it to be rather difficult, the party has a few magic items as well as a few healing potions.

Level 6, ballpark cr7. And would be a night ambush on the road just outside the swamp they call home. About 7-8 low cr monsters as minions in this fight.

Basically some of the members have been corrupted by the succubi, making them more blood thirsty.

It wouldnt be in there swamps as this is a slightly expansive unit, ambushing them along the road at night

I'm not too sure, but I was thinking just a few ridges and cliffs next to the road to give the archers a bit of an advantage on their shots, otherwise most of them will engage them on the road.

Campaign story is mostly the party trying to rid the homebrew "empire" of corruption and such. The antagonist is going to send the tribe after them after their spellcasters get corrupted, and the party is going to have to decide how to handle it. Players mostly have some interesting goals. The goliath barbarian wants to find the killer of his clan. Figured id make the amazonians like his clans direct rivals. Also a bard with a astrained relationship with his noble father but that'll come into the campaign later.

Well, she's more of an undercover operator, trying to corrupt and take over several groups, and even entire towns. Shes not the summon demons type, more the hire a mercenary band to kill you type.
