I Gm’d my first ever game yesterday. Our party consisted of Raymond the neutral human bard, U’riell the neutral elven druid and Roald the lawful human paladin. I used the Catacombs of Bone as a starter dungeon (found somewhere on this site).
Raymond uses drums as a special music instrument (I allowed, because why not) Ur’iell is of the forest and sea, having lived a large portion of his 305 years on a remote island and Raymond has a large hatred against Drow (ideas for a next session).
Judging on the reactions of the other players, I think this will be a game we’ll play more 😀
There were quite a few things happening, like U’riell changing into a unicorn, Roald hanging onto him and they jousted a skeleton into dust, U’riell changing into a giant sea-turtle and again Roald using him as a living shield, all while Raymond was using his drum as assistance (for +1 forward, +1D4 damage, etc.), accidentally killing one of the vampire children using a bone wand and killing a horde of ghouls to take their treasure. In the end, Roald used lay-on)hands to heal Raymond, but this only partially worked and now Roald gained the vampire bite of Raymond, I’m curious how they will get rid of that in the next session. Any ideas?
