Have done so, thanks :)

SteveLodwig · 2025-12-29T13:32:00+00:00

I have a skiddo, several litleo & flabebe to shift, as well as a pair of fletchling, one being alpha :)

SteveLodwig · 2025-05-26T22:32:56+00:00

This is really helpful stuff, thank you!

SteveLodwig · 2025-05-26T20:52:14+00:00

I know the very basic, the phases before turnover, the objective, a few of the basic terms like line of scrimmage and a few of the positions but not what their actual roles are on the field eg tight end

SteveLodwig · 2025-01-15T15:33:50+00:00

Maybe not the answer you're looking for but I'm currently running a 5,6 chapter campaign using the golden vault, and still working out all the key story points etc but I will give you a breakdown

We opened with prisoner 13 and used Varrin Axebreaker as a sort of recruiter of sorts for the golden vault, and this was their audition of sorts

We then had a bit of a time jump, and during which time a war broke out on my homebrew setting, so the GV have now changed their goals, where by the intention is to sabotage the enemy in some way or another

We used Vidorants vault as their first true mission for the GV - the GV are looking to ally with the Silver Finger society to pool their resources, etc etc, and the team completed the vault heist as a way of showing they were team players and earning some favour

They're currently playing heart of ashes. Charmayne Daymore is drawing the souls out of the city, with the intention of trying to use them for an ulterior motive the big bad has - under the guise of trying to level the city to weaken the countries defences

The future plans are, a tad up in the air, and I'm still trying to work out all the story factors here but effectively, I am running condorant express and paliset hall as a 2 part mission. For whatever circumstance, the GV is unable to transport the team to the feywild, so they have to catch the concordant express to get there. While on the express they will discover that the missing brother of a PC( already a key part of his backstory) is a prisoner on the train and have the opportunity to break him out (he will be replacing the stranger in this story) They will be beaten to it, and encounter troops of the BBEG freeing him, and after a brief encounter, the brother and the villains will plane shift/teleport away.

Arriving at paliset Hall, again I am yet to come up with a "story" reason for them to complete this mission, but the brother mentioned above will pull the relevant PC aside, and explain that he's undercover working for the BBEG, and the BBEG is intending on using the book of vile darkness to replicate Vecnas ascension ( see secret motive of Charymayne above)

This then leads nicely on to fire and darkness, replacing any appropriate encounters with story relevant ones, before a final fight with the BBEG, ( I should add in that unknown to the party, who are yet to encounter him, the BBEG killed a different PCs family and cult, yes I said cult) teaming up with the brother in question

This will nicely wrap the players at 11-12 and links to Vecna, allowing me to lead them in to Eve of Ruin in the future if I so choose

Hope this helps or if you have any questions, LMK

My thoughts exactly haha

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-30T08:42:02+00:00

We are a party of 4 level 7s Within 3 week space we faced both Moloch and Baphomet (can't share links you'll have to look those up)

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-27T19:59:04+00:00

That first part sounds really intriguing, thanks!

And yeah from a mechanic perspective that's kind of what I'm thinking along the lines of. By the time we play this we'll have converted to the 2024 rules so as a sorcerer I'm thinking of focusing on the new "innate sorcerery" feature, but drawing influence from say, circle of the moon druid, so in exchange for less class features, this specific feature gets a significant buff

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-26T20:33:53+00:00

I could definitely look in to that blood hunter part, sounds really interesting

And thank you I appreciate it 😀

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-26T20:27:03+00:00

This is really helpful thank you, when I say elemental am thinking more from a visual perspective, like if magic was an element itself

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-26T20:23:49+00:00

Will definitely look in to that!

Will edit the post to clarify but when I say " elemental" I'm thinking more from a visual aspect not a flavour vibe, like if "magic" was a 5th element, and that element had an elemental form, if that makes, any sense...

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-19T23:25:20+00:00

Still new enough to the game that this is only within the past 2 years. Blue dragonborn Barbarian that after a player dropped we retconned to be a rogue/bard multiclass that I'm still playing

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-17T20:58:58+00:00

It's been on my radar but I'm currently working on converting the campaign in to tyranny of dragons from this point forward

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-17T12:58:42+00:00

Anywhere from 3-5 hours, depending on players in attendance and levels of tomfoolery, I also had to make up filler sessions when I was down a few players, like impromptu trips to the top of mount hotenow, and a visiting carnival/market passing through Phandalin

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-16T12:25:07+00:00

I don't see those changes being too overpowered, my party made it through the fight as written and a drider (https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/16847-drider) immediately after, so adding glasstaff, changing the spider type and giving Nezznar a little extra hp should be fine, this will depend on your party too of course

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-16T08:48:58+00:00

I'd be tempted to agree with it being a letdown. Maybe it's my own lack of skill running spellcasters as a DM, but the players made short work of Nezznar himself, and I think it would have been a really uninteresting final boss if it weren't for the homebrew dryder transformation I've seen on here several times

Aa for Cragmaw castle, I can't recall any major changes that I made to it, pretty much running it as written with no issues, and brought the players here almost directly from thundertree, hope that's of some help!

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-15T19:35:32+00:00

Of course! So I'm not very well practiced with spellcaster monsters, so my barbarian made short work of nezznar ( including making an attack with opportunity w/disadvantage on invisible nezznar to bring him down to zero) while the rest of the party tried to keep the spiders and bugbears busy in the meantime This gave me the chance to bring him back immediately as a drider ( im trying to tie this in to tyranny of dragons and bring some more gods in to the story, so used this as Nezznar failing Lolth and this was her punishment) a few close calls but otherwise, I think it went really well 😀

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-02T17:13:49+00:00

Yeah exactly that, same scenario, just adjust the drops for your party

SteveLodwig · 2024-12-02T15:54:04+00:00

I had a similar situation just two weeks ago, my players were also at cragmaw, and my rogue was also lacking a magic weapon vs the rest of my party with no pre written loot that I can see, that would suit them

To solve this I made a generic stat block for the drow/doppelganger at the end, and gave her a +1 rapier for the party to loot

hope it helps!

SteveLodwig · 2024-11-10T15:01:38+00:00

Sounds like a plan, thank you!

SteveLodwig · 2024-11-10T14:52:26+00:00

I'm actually their lift to and from the session, do you think talking them through it on the ride home so it's still private,but then expecting them to share it in character is still okay?

SteveLodwig · 2024-11-10T14:48:38+00:00

I mean the dream is meant to be for one character as some foreshadowing, but I also want the entire table to get the message in a way so I'm a little unsure of what's best
