It's something the group would definitely be aware of - rushing water noise and the danger of stepping on it. One thing that I feel like I didn't portray well enough is the grate in the floor that leads to the underground waterway. That might be important.ĭon't Forget the Grate: In area 5 on level 1, there's an intersection with a lot of stuff in it.
this room is full of corpses 6 feet deep and the ceiling is only 12 feet high total, so it's quite cramped in there! Also. I had a single character get sucked into room 57 and the poor guy got murdered by the beast in there. Know Room 57: You must remember that list of altered spells on page 129! Most of them transport you to room 57 (page 168). Ceilings are twelve feet high! The heroes won't be flying out of the reach of earthbound villains. The Ceilings are Low: Check out page 126. Here are things that feel very easy to forget. That said, it's so tough to keep everything in your mind at once. Will they die? Will they figure it out? Will they do something you never thought of (yes, they will)? As a DM, it is so thrilling to watch the heroes go into a death trap. So then, when the character puts their hands on the puzzle cube and begins to creep away, the monkeys do something loud or lightning strikes - either way, this wakes up the King. In this instance, I think I should have foreshadowed a bunch of annoying flying monkeys or an oncoming storm. Something exciting should come out of it, right? That's tough, because you don't want to punish the group for succeeding, but you also don't want an anticlimax. When planning an encounter, I think it's always a good idea for a DM to think, "what if they succeed on every roll?" The stealthy character rolled two successes. This whole scenario boiled down to two stealth checks. Well, I didn't put enough thought into it. The group would have to steal the cube from the King's ruined amphitheater while the dinosaur slept! I set it up so that the King of Feathers ate a dude who had a puzzle cube. I feel like I kind of blew it with that monster. I tried not to use them unless it was necessary. I'm not a fan of most of the creatures in the city - kobolds, yuan-ti, grung and vegepygmies.
I am very picky when it comes to using monsters.
