Trilodroid

Most places had 50 ppl in their village. Strangers were probably weird. But there was some culture saying to be nice to visitors on the road... bread and water type stuff, esp. religious centers would provide.

Towns had like 200 ppl.

Only the biggest, London in the 1100s, had 10,000ish maybe 20,000.

Are those Will-O’-Wisps?

The Hauntd House (1905)

Time 5:30 or so, fireballs flying around, about 5 inch diameter. Seems like Will-of-the-Wisps to me.

Movie- North by Northwest

The okd classic. Finally watched. Had no idea other than the plane scene (replicated in X files w a helicopter in the corn field, kinda).

Impressions:

It was Cary Grant, not Jimmy Steward. Whoops!
Main character was a jerk by his actions… cutting lines at cabs, lying, chey, but that part was all comedy. He was more just a rapscallion. Scoundrel. And I guess it was that personality that let him fight back against the baddies.
Watched the whole thing, it was a solid story. Started slow but something watchable about this old movie.
Were some of Mount Rushmore scenes real? The hotel with that view maybe?

FA2 Nightmare Keep module… v high level

It’s a Forgotten Realm TSR thing.

I have been suspicious of the dryad. Is this a fight? Gotta solo from super far, inconvenient.

Next time Drow

The party's melee guys have AC that is like impossible to hit. ~23 AC on fighter(?) and 24 AC on Barb, yeah I accidentally let that get out of control with that DEX item that the Barbarian got.

Drow might Use a spell similar to true strike, give recipient a +10 or +20 to hit. Cleric will cast on dudes… maybe a wand with limited charges. COMPARE TO PATHFINDER TRUE STRIKE - it gives +20 to hit (gotta use it next round) and hits perfectly thru full concealment like inviz or darkness.

Maybe they attack while party vs. fire salamanders.

Next time fire salamanders

Give helpers. Tiny fire elementals… a bunch!! Surround. +2 flanking. Maybe +4 flanking special.

I think give resistance to slashing?? MaybE. Think fire lava children and their resists physical attacks

Small fire elemental https://www.imarvintpa.com/dndlive/Monsters.php?id=348

Smallies maybe can mob attack to auto hit or burn
*maaaaybe ill have the small ones merge into a biiiig one, and itll speak once (rare) in a voice of all 10 little ones together. Deep and weird.
OOORRRR all the smalls hold them at bay while far away, giant bonfire, drow summon another fire Huge fire elemental. Use 3.5e elder stats. DMG REDUCTION 10. +18 to hit. BLINDFIGHT.
X
Imprint on ur party mind of the ElderElementalGod - the elementals yell out the n many voices-at the moment of merging the smaller elementals into the LARGE MINI i have
Statblock for elder fire elemental https://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/elemental.htm

35 ft tall!!!!
Blundsight on 2 biggest
Two darkness cast on it drom drow to hide it and more darkness cast on party
Cast light spell to counter… arcana knowledge check

***note in 2e dnd, gotta summon elementals. The Drow did it!! A big fire pit with them coming out.

* 2e had 3 sizes, and biggest were 18 hitdice! Bigger or same HitDice than a dragon. Was +15 to hit (thAC0 was 5 on that one).

Next time Vs. Dragon ideas,

G3
Dndbeyind has best tactics
Reds have climbspeed for tight lairs
Elder has more super lair and super legendary things
Elemental fire helpers
Retreat into lava tunnel
Blindsight
Darkmantle minions help blindsight
Kobold helpers —
Minions jack up ranged and concentration spells
Volcanic vents heavy obscure - blindsight— i think tail attack a vent cover!!!
Grapple — grapple then run to lava?!

Tenkar ideas vs. dragons.

My ideas plus his

Dragon room feels like a trap
In g3, secret exit - high, low? Is it an illusion floor????
Would it let anybdrow enter? Firefianta there more like… would it allow tribute or do giants hate dragons? No firegianta down this low actually this is underdark
Is there a gas fire bomb trap? Immune fire.
Water hole esxape.
Minions???
Magic items it uses?
Alarm spell? Silent alarm. Or it just smells and hears.
CASTS DIMENSION DOOR, … probably not plane shift
Wraithformnspell?
