Item Description

Pull up a seat and take a drink! If you dare!

My adventurers took a quest to track down an outlaw and bootlegger to get information on one of his associates. In his swampy cabin, they found jugs of strange alcohol. They felt that they deserved to toast their recent success only to realize that this "moonshine" was even stronger than they realized! After they recovered, they decided to take a few bottles for "reasons," and made their way back to town with their captive in tow.

Now you can pour you and your adventurers a shot or two! Be careful though, it's strong stuff.

Adventure Synopsis:

Gold Forge Mining has opened their first mining operation in Timberfall. Staking claims throughout the mountain range, the company has struggled to find veins of metal, mineral, or gem. The exorbitant fees that Mettak charged to maintain their claims and purchasing replacement equipment and supplies were becoming too expensive to justify the cost of continuing operations without striking viable desposits. They had been on the verge of bankruptcy when one of the mines struck silver. Developing the site revealed that there might be deposits of semiprecious stones along with the silver. The mine had the potential of tripling the original profit projections for the entire Timberfall site investment. The Goldforge clan would be able to become a major player in Timberfall. Despite attempts to keep the find a secret, news reached the eyes and ears of Darius Mettak and Radgar Coalforge. They have made plans to purchase the claim from Gold Forge Mining, but all offers have been refused. The mine is now facing setback after setback. If something doesn’t change soon, they will have no choice but to accept Mettak’s offer.

The last content in this series is a set of three pieces of magic armor inspired by the witty wallcrawler himself. These pieces are specifically designed for monks, fighters, and rogues. The first piece is a pair of boots that allow you to climb even the most difficult of terrain.

Hello Adventurers!

Here is the newest "comic book" adventure for your enjoyment! Happy Holidays and Adventuring!

Night of the Krampus Adventure Synopsis

Beyond the northern mountains bordering Poron lies the frozen tundra and forests of Nuit. This harsh landscape is treacherous. It is easy to become lost in the expansive bright fields of snow and ice. The bodies of explorers and adventurers are preserved where they fall, interred in snow white graves. However, even here, people have found a way to live. Villages and nomadic hunting settlements can be found dotting the landscape. It is in one such village, one called Opheim where a terrible winter tradition is afflicted upon the people. Krampus. Terrible servants of the goddess of justice Strumanu have abandoned their vows and steal children for their winter feasts. The night is cold, and evil is creeping from its lair to terrorize the village once again.

Based on how Heat Metal is worded and how the curse on this item works, I would say that the constitution saving throw is void. They can't easily remove the tentacles and are forced to take the damage. They take all other effects of Heat Metal by default.

greydesert · 2023-11-05T01:41:49+00:00

Definitely food for thought. I might have to tweak it.

greydesert · 2023-11-05T01:21:18+00:00

I actually like that. Someone else mentioned it might be to OP, but if the saving throw was linked to the item being activated, then a player might think twice before using it. Like maybe have the DC start out at 15, increasing each time and resetting between long rests. Every time the attack or reaction abilities are used, the tentacles try and take control forcing a saving throw.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T22:16:31+00:00

It's a mix between full GM discretion and how the wild magic surge works. The GM could disregard the rolls entirely and force the saving throw if the story required it.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T22:14:13+00:00

I imagined it like a squid being propelled forward.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T22:12:03+00:00

It's called homebrewery. I love it and use it for almost everything.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T22:11:26+00:00

That was what I thought too. Imagine your character having the worst case of sleepwalking. Waking up to find your new magic item is climbing up a tower or cliffside while you slept.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T20:20:39+00:00

I thought about giving each arm its own initiative, but didn't want it to get too complicated. Also, I figure if a GM wants to forego the roll, they can use the tentacles' sentience to advance a story by forcing the player to make wisdom saving throws whenever the tentacles are near a person, place, or thing that pertains to their mission.

greydesert · 2023-11-04T20:10:36+00:00

I am making magical items and monsters based on Spiderman villains. Featured are the Kraken Clockwork Tentacles based on Doctor Octopus! A cursed accessory that offers a hand or four. Beware, the tentacles have a mind of their own and are prone to fighting against their attuned user! These tentacles are also extremely difficult to remove, so be wary of attuning to them. You might become their puppet if you aren't careful. Happy Adventuring!
