"Coming to you live from the banks of the river Styx, we have received reports that Princess Diana has received special permission from heaven for an excursion and --yes there she is now-- she appears to be waiting on the dock before the ferry, and holding what looks to be a baseball bat in her hands."

exu calamity: a summary

[constructivemayhem]

Brennan’s description of Invisibility is so interesting and breathes so much life into the magic system of this hyper-arcane world. I’m always more of a sucker for hard magic systems and as much as D&D already delivers on that front, I love hearing these little details that combine common knowledge of physics and light with the arcane. 

It also gave Cerrit’s 31 Investigation check the appropriate depth and dimension. It can sometimes be hard as a DM to find nuance within the success or failure of a roll. How does a 19 Persuasion check manifest compared to a 23? What does it mean to get 30+ on a check and how does it go beyond the standard success? The way Brennan handled it was kinda - for a lack of a better word - elegant? He let the narrative reflect Cerrit’s specialized abilities which made that 31 feel like it was a success beyond the norm.

Liam: for my campaign 3 character, I'm going to make a PC that is a love letter to Zephra because I love what Matt and Marisha created there, by making him a reflection of the values set up by Keyleth and showing how Zephra continues to prosper under her leadership

Marisha: I'm gonna bring back Percy's worst enemy >:)
