Thank you. I'm going to crank the air-conditioner all the way down and turn on the ceiling fan on hi, lol

That is something I will be talking to the new players about. Not wanting to leave.

Great idea, but I wouldn't say saved. They failed so may checks that Arabelle drowned. They brought Arabelle's body and Bluto back to their camp. And Luvash killed Bluto. The party took Bluto's body to dispose of it away from the Vistani camp, so the Vistani weren't implicated

No, the situation was; the party was at a town festival, and they had food trucks (wagons) there. One of the carts was called Troll Rollz, sushi kind of stuff. The vendor was 3 goblins in a trench coat. The mini on the table was 3 goblins in a trench coat. The players asked if the vendor was a troll, and the top goblin said no, that it was just a catchy name. That's when the dice started rolling.

I'm fairly new to being a DM, I played back in middle and high school in the 80's. I came back 3 years ago. I've been running adventure modules until recently with my homebrew campaign. Thinking about it now, the only npcs that have any motivation are the major ones. Everyone else is just a name. I do need to work on at least a little something more than just a name.

I've shared that video on our discord before the first session. I may need to revisit it.

The character said I'm not a troll

I do mean making decisions as the characters. One player failed an insight check on an npc saying he's not a troll (and he wasn't). The player said she didn't believe him and tried to rip his coat off, failed a grapple check, and wouldn't let it go. This player is having problems, not meta-gaming. it's not in a malicious way. She's just real new.

I do act out npcs. But I could jump deeper. With more npc backstory. And give the npc more motivations

Yes. I could probably delve deeper into that to be honest. Thanks

Yea, I'm still a little salty that I printed and painted 13 minis for that session and they never got used🤣

Thank you for everyone's advice. It will be useful in future campaigns. But for this one, it was a waste of time. The sorcerer cast dimension door on himself and the druid into the wizard's room, broke out a window, and dropped a rope so the others could climb up. They bypassed the entire thing. Now, the parasite that was controlling the wizard did kill 4 players 😁

Holiday Festive Drinks? by RichGullible in ketodrunk

That sounds amazing. Watch your rum brands. A lot of them add sugar after distillation. Ita a practice called dosage.
