Howdy! I’ve ran this module once but I came here to see another take on it and in my play through ( also my first time ever dming) I did exactly what you suggested for the kobalds treating them as a unit. so pretty proud of myself for doing that on the fly lol I played them as a bunch of annoying toddlers and myla as the big sis/ mother figure and I played the siblings so annoyingly that my characters tried to sneak around dragon rest just to avoid these little rascals. Turned out very helpful not having to keep track of them all talking due to not getting the chance lol
Hey hey! Glad you got something out of this but also happy to hear you're trusting your instincts in the moment, that's awesome
Hello there! Thanks for the shoutout!! You give outstanding tips here too!
We love how deeply you can tie things together by having Mek and Minn be active parts of the community when things start out 🙂
Hey Ryan, I agree that Myla is important, I had her as a more guide around the cloister but not give up too much info. Also I had Runara's reason for not leaving Dragon's Rest as her connection to the Temple keeps an aura of good that repels the lesser (zombies, etc) away from the cloister, so she can't leave the immediate area.
Oh nice, two good ideas
Surprised no one does it how I always learned it.
Rose-Something you liked.
Thorn- Something you didn’t care for or at least want to watch out and approach differently the next time.
Bud- Something you are looking forward to in the future.
Makes a sandwich good/bad/good format that tends to work a bit better than ending on the sour note.
Also watch out for people who use bud to do basically a restatement of thorn…it’s the worst,
“I loved the role play, but the combat could use alot of work to run smoother. I’m looking forward to the DM running smoother combat!”
Puts pressure on the person twice. Trust me, when you tell someone they did bad at something…they won’t forget😅
I also peppered in what I call a healing plaster, bandage that does 1d4 +1 healing that a kobold could give a player or have it as treasure if party takes damage exploring, still leaving Seagrove Caves important.
Make that three good ideas, thanks for sharing!
A Court of Thrones and Roses is crazy popular maybe keeping the name Rose and Thornes will appeal to people
Wow listening to this series I feel like I totally just missed half the story.
Yeah there's a few aspects I highlight here because I feel like they kind of get buried
Where can I find that free pdf for the random encounters?
