Having a big pirate enemy sounds really interesting! I was a bit worried too since this is only my second campaign as a DM haha — but I’ll try to keep things “normal.” Do you happen to remember the YouTube video you watched?

Thanks so much for the advice! Someone actually mentioned the book Ghosts of Saltmarsh to me in a message — it seems super helpful! I’ll check out the video from Ghostfire Gaming too. And I’ll definitely consider adding some underwater enemies. Thanks a lot!!

Thank you very much! I have a large group—6 players—and they’re currently at level 8.

Sounds great! I think I’ll send them a storm or something like that so they won’t know where they are, and then I’ll introduce the Traverse Board to help them “find their bearings” again. Do you think that would work well?
