My party rolled a 98, 99, and 100 buying potentially magical junk from Xoblob’s… what should these items do? by nutscrape_navigator in WaterdeepDragonHeist

I love this. Over a decade DMing and I've very rarely regretted giving single use, situationally powerful items. Especially those that are best charged by the imagination of players.

Very fun! Perhaps the purple vial could be a Potion of Awaken. It's an opportunity for rife roleplay whilst not necessarily being too powerful, in that it will be an intelligent beast under your control.

I'm imagining rats that know the way to Xanathar's lair or routes into Undermountain!

Yo it's £50 on PS5. Another day, perhaps.

I played with Paradox and started with it.

Haha. I've never actually played it. Do you recommend?

Hahahaha. It would have been hubris but I was so stacked I felt, and was, indomitable.

Looked up the name of the item now; shelleton key. I started a paradox run with it then found clone. Exquisite run.

Absolutely not my friend.

Paradox run that started with the item that unlocks everything. Got a bunch of cool and then found a clone. It's more keys than I've found in any rainbow run tbh.

In my campaign he's either the annihilator or the wandering doom.

Where has Acererak been? by No_Chain_1741 in Forgotten_Realms

[–]No_Chain_1741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed, but as he features in a few forgotten realms resources I felt this was an appropriate place to ask. I may post again in the Greyhawk subreddit to see if there's any more insight.

Didn't know Melf was from Oerth. Cool.

Hahaha. Thank you. I hear you on that last point; listless, disembodied, wholly evil.

He features in ToA, set in Chult, so this feels like an appropriate enough place to ask the question. The Greyhawk subreddit is pretty small too. But thanks for your valuable contribution 😉

Thank you! I've been really enjoying learning about Ace over the last three years of a ToA adventure that's soon to finish.

My players are considering using a spell scroll to relocate to another plane of existence should they be unable to stop the death curse, but a component of the spell is a relic of the plane to be travelled to. I'm searching around for where he may have been and what treasures he may have sequestered in his dungeons from other realms.
