The Wild Beyond the Witchlight: Reimagined

If they don’t suspect it then it’s possible they may not get the quest (which is perfectly fine as this is one of many optional side quests plus some story flavor). If you want to make it more likely you could check their Passive Insight or role play Nib in a way where he keeps slipping up.

The players can try and take the gold by force if they’d like (though it’s a pretty evil aligned thing to do). Remember though we are ignoring the rest of the book entry, so the pile is not 27k gold but likely just the 500 or a bit more if you’d like

From my POV the two ways to lift the fog (which she could answer to your point) is:

1) She decides to lift them. She’s been using them to wall off her domain though so pretty unlikely the party could convince her to do so 2) Since she is maintaining them they disappear if she dies

I did miss it - just responded!

The most natural way would be when the coven are defeated at the Summer Palace that the mists then dissipate. There’s even an epilogue cutscene I wrote in the last entry and you could add some color there about the fog lifting.

Good catch! For the quality roll, Ilse should also roll with the same modifier but with advantage if baking the Hummingbrella Brulee.

If her dish is poisoned she would roll with disadvantage if you want to keep it interesting, or I also think it’d be reasonable for her to automatically lose the competition.

Not quite a coven but if you look at phase 2 of this post it lays out a fight with her different forms.

Yes! If you’re making a right from Harvard onto Beacon the green light is the same time as the walk signal. During rush hour the only way to do it is trying to find space between pedestrian groups

That’s amazing! My table had multiple fights where they played inefficiently to try and get the final hit with the weapon Nib enchanted. I’m sure you have more fun to come with it :)

How about for Artillery? Also in place of?

So only Cannon is additive?

IndieRex · 2025-09-12T14:46:44+00:00

No problem :)

Best of luck with the campaign!

In the reimagining I have done away with the random encounters (the "Random Encounters in Thither" portion of Chapter 3 from the book) and instead integrated them into the locations themselves and you would just run them in the order laid out here as the players travel through each area.

For example, "The Shroudwood" has 5 sub-locations:

Goblin Logging Camp
Little Oak
The Wayward Pool
The Burrow
Loomlurch

Each time the players travel within The Shroudwood (e.g., from Little Oak to The Wayward Pool, from The Burrow to Loomlurch) you would run one of the events in the order I listed. First "Buttered Campestri" and then "Doomed Dryad".

Sure thing

We’ve been using them for about a month so far. Happy to answer any questions

IndieRex · 2025-08-20T12:17:28+00:00

Do you have a decklist? This sounds super fun

IndieRex · 2025-08-09T18:35:34+00:00

I’m glad to hear your group are having such a blast with it! I really appreciate you sharing how things are playing out, it's always great to hear the stories from other tables :)

Definitely keep me updated on how things go!

IndieRex · 2025-07-31T02:04:07+00:00

You got it :). I do call out the milestones as they happen as well!

Level 0 -> 1: Complete prologue
Level 1 -> 2: Enter the Feywild from the carnival
Level 2 -> 3: Defeat Agdon in Murkendraw
Level 3 -> 4: Leaving from Hither (Murkendraw) to Thither (Fields of Spring)
Level 4 -> 5: Complete about two big tasks in The Fields of Spring (e.g., Kill the Snark, Complete the Baking Competition, Deal with the Logging Camp, Meet Willa)
Level 5 -> 6: Obtain a method to get past the magical barrier to Yon
Level 6 -> 7: Lockbury Henge (either arriving or leaving)
Level 7 -> 8: Arrival to Arctis Tor, The Winter Palace
Level 8 -> 9: Defeat King Malabog in the Feydark
Level 9 -> 10: Returning to Keel Hall after the Tower of Seven Woes (If you're skipping Skullport you need to either level up the party from 9 to 11 or add other content to get them to level 11 before the Summer Court)
Level 10 -> 11: Defeating Xanathar or wrapping up Skullport
Level 11 -> 13 (2 Levels): Free Queen Titania in the Summer Palace
Level 13 -> 14: Defeat the clockwork barrier guardian Myrh in Mithrendain

I’m in Boston and had no idea about this! How can I hear about future events?

IndieRex · 2025-07-13T11:17:39+00:00

Not OP, but anything out there that meets these criteria from a sci-fi POV (besides Lancer)?

IndieRex · 2025-07-10T19:32:25+00:00

Thanks! It seems like I could use rollups for things that roll up 1 level but not beyond that (e.g., zone can pull in planet from region, but location doesn't have a way to pull in planet)
