I am not sure I understand the question: did you pull the 2 of Diamonds twice?

Yes i pulled it twice and there was a fifteen minute debate on the action of the card between my self and two dms the my group swtiches between. Past that point now only got one level and the second card was deemed worthless


You drew twice, you should get the benefit or penalty from each card. If the second card you drew was a bad card you would have had to live with the result, right?


As GM I’d have made it a solo fight. Two monsters in succession, the second a higher cr because of your increased level.
