I’m starting a new campaign (RoRL) and have a questions, I have a Druid, skald bard, summoner, cavalier, and barbarian in my group. If the skald plays his rage song, how does that affect:
1) the barbarian raging
2) the Druids animal companion
3) the summoners edilion
4) the cavaliers mount
5) the Druids summons from summon nature ally?

Thanks for the help.

So I’m running a new group of friends through ROTR and I’ve noticed that usually all my players take a turn at the hagfish, despite it not fitting all their characters. So this time, I’m going to have a jug of hagfish drink they have to actually drink before they roll.

I’m thinking of mixing jello gelatin and spite to make the goupy consisentcy. But I’m taking suggestions on what I can mix in to make the flavor gross but not throw up revoluting. I was thinking of getting some joke fish candies to melt down or something like that.

Anyone tried something like this? How’d it go?

I'm starting a new campaign and have a player who wants to play an unchained summoner with a protean eiloden. He also has a great backstory, with trauma. He wants to talk through a little ventriloquist doll as part of cooping with that.

I'm thinking of rewarding this creative backstory with letting his eiloden "retreat" into the doll until summoned. He will gain NO bonuses, just be able to talk with his eiloden. In every way but the communication, the protean will be "dismissed".

Can you guys think of any way this would backfire? I'm thinking if he's knocked out or anything, the eiloden is inaccessible for a set amount of time (I don't want him to use him as a suicide scout). I've never played a summoner/played with one, so I've been reading all about it. but thought I'd ask ya'll.

Thanks guys!

Hahaha! I like that idea. Perfect too with the insane stuff the shield can do!

I'd rather it be more hilarity with potential for bonuses then complete loss of control. I don't want it to break the module just add some humor every once in a while.

So I'm about to run a group through RotR. I've got two who've decided their class already. Barbarian and Paladin.
I'm a mean and cruel dm.
I want to give the Paladin the Shield of Wonder from Goblins the web comic (just google it).
First question is: when? The hilarity of the shield (of which some gamebreajibg effects I'll definitly nerf) is outweighed by its OP-ness. I wanted to give it to him relatively early on. (Was thinking he could get it from Aldern as a "gift".
Second question: I want to give something similar to the barbarian. (And later the other players),
A- use at ur own risk- type of magic item,
Ideas?
