None. Second time DMing a 5E game so I'm going to keep things simple. :-)

I'll have a story post up in about an hour or so...

No worries. Just checking :-)

Wow - I'm going to have to read my DMG more closely! I'm imagining "Shadow of the Colossus" scenarios now!

P 271 of the DMG :)

I can't tell you how much I am enjoying playing this character. :)
Totally the most ridiculous character I have ever played.

No use letting good goblins corpses go to waste. :-)

How much longer to I have on that exhaustion?

There's a specific location I have in mind where it will wear off. Not too much longer.

When I ran the game originally I had anyone that failed three swim rolls in a row suffer HP damage instead. The exhaustion seemed more reasonable this time around.

I do appreciate the exhaustion in place of HP damage lol
Not that I really mind, the disadvantage is causing some fun for me

That's one thing that I tried to get across to the people that I was running this with IRL. Don't look at a bad situation as something bad, look at as an opportunity to have something cool happen that wouldn't have happened otherwise. Not sure they bought it though. :-)

Psshhh, that's the point of these games. It's not to win all the time with no trouble, it's to have cool stuff happen!

I think they'll get there as we continue to play. RPGs are still a bit of a foreign concept to them as they're used to boardgames and strict sequences of play and the like. We're firing up the start of a campaign on the 15th (did a character creation session last week) so we'll see how it goes. :-)

Good luck, and enjoy teaching the newbies!

Err...Valrakas doesn't wear any armor. Nor clothes, except for trousers. He is a bare-torsoed pirate minotaur barabarian :-) Cyriel can put the glow on Valrakas' harpoon, I guess.

Sounds saucy. OK then big guy, Cyriel will touch your harpoon.

LOL!

Wow, going to have to rename this game "The Pict Problem: After Dark!" :-)

Horns and Harpoons, Fifth Edition.

Haha, sorry gang, I know it's reckless and will probably land us in a spot of trouble, but that's how things are around Valrakas :-D

Ok, I missed the part about the tunnels being only 3ft high. Obviously only Vex can get in there without going on all fours (a risky proposition for sure). I doubt Valrakas could or would anyhow.

How does the main tunnel look?
