Got a chance to run some Raising Hell Under the Holy Mountain (Perilous Deeps) recently. Players encountered the tub-licker. The mechanic where new tongues pop out if the players say “ew” is so fun to run. I was making the grossest attack and wound descriptions ever.

If anyone else has run it, I’m curious how many tongues they got to pop out…

Researching smelting and forging for my contribution to Perilous Deeps today, I came across this fun fact:

Cobalt-based blue pigments (cobalt blue) have been used since ancient times for jewelry and paints, and to impart a distinctive blue tint to glass, but the color was later thought by alchemists to be due to the known metal bismuth. Miners had long used the name kobold ore (German for goblin ore) for some of the blue-pigment producing minerals; they were so named because they were poor in known metals, and gave poisonous arsenic-containing fumes upon smelting. In 1735, such ores were found to be reducible to a new metal (the first discovered since ancient times), and this was ultimately named for the kobold.
