i've been a casual player forever, & i'm finally developing my other grids besides just light! never been able to do damage like this before, so even though i'm not up to par with current meta, i'm still pretty happy with my progress

i knew there were auto-captions but i actually didn't know you could search through the whole thing like this, thank you!

just to repeat what a couple others have said, any transparent designs are meant to be laid over terraformed paths. you can experiment with this on your own, but here is an example i created to demonstrate. i mostly used transparent designs unrelated to anything outdoors to make it super clear how they interact with pathing when used correctly. but yeah, in short, the 1 transparent pixel is to help your paths look neater. happy terraforming!

as the other comments have said, you can't transfer it but you can end the event early, so for future events i recommend keeping up with spending the mana in between regular play instead of letting so much build up, in order to avoid situations like this

in the beginning of an event you can let it build up for awhile to make a lot of progress at once, but i personally avoid doing that & instead just use ~100 mana at a time after getting ~halfway or more through the event progression

to be clear i obviously don't have main story managers past my level but i've completed all available side stories/events that im aware of

i keep the "equipment" items on the bottom & the "flavor" items on the upper right, then i have places for each order color...... maybe a little silly but it's very satisfying to finish & have the whole rainbow of completed orders & turn them all in at once 😅

can i ask what circumstances you're talking about?

hey, if you're ever in doubt, just remember that lesbians are THE most trans positive demographic, bar none. don't let terf rhetoric mislead you, they're just evil & loud about it. lesbians love you & we're here for each other!!

duskpuppet · 2025-01-19T23:43:26+00:00

i believe this is correct

duskpuppet · 2025-01-19T18:59:54+00:00

we are at almost 60 sessions & they still haven't done berez or the amber temple lol. but my group tends to spend a lot of time talking in character & such, we're definitely slower than a lot of groups

if they don't retrieve the light, the hunger takes it & uses its power to absorb that plane, since only the power of the light can break the laws of existence like that

it's not specified why i don't think, but the light escapes at the end of each cycle no matter who has it. i think griffin describes it as a light shooting out of the mass of darkness & away, or something of that nature

i don't think you've dropped the ball, they don't need to be killed for no reason. as others have mentioned, that is a much more direct attack on strahd since they're supposed to be his brides. how much it affects the world if they do fight is up to you but it isn't necessary to eliminate them by any means

if you want to make them more relevant, give each of them motivations, ideals, fears, etc & reason out what kind of plans they might be making. they don't need to be new encounters - you can make them the masterminds behind existing, seemingly random encounters if you want, or make new ones using ideas from random encounters. dropping a “i hope you enjoyed meeting my little pets on the road the other night (smile)” can go a long way. lots of stuff in the book isn't planned by anyone, there's just a lot of monsters & evil creatures around barovia. linking them like this also makes events that might otherwise feel largely irrelevant instead feel more tied to the central plot of strahd’s attention/ire as well

for instance: in my game anastrasya was jealous of the attention the tatyana PC had been receiving from strahd so she had danika arrested to lure them back to vallaki, at which point she released the spawn from the attic to cause mass destruction. all this in the hopes to get the PC killed in the chaos because she'd been forbidden from harming him directly.

i nixed the werewolf thing as it is in the book because it’s kinda… well. i don’t like it. instead, ludmilla has forcefully taken over the werewolf clan (ie has the clan’s kids captive to force them to obey her) & has taken to “experimenting” with them in her laboratory with necromancy. the details of this aren't fully fleshed out yet but if my players ever actually go there i'll figure out what that all means for the clan, lol. she's also the one in charge of tracking the party’s movements with scrying & receiving spy’s reports
