'The metallic clink of your gold coins is heard as you place them on a black velvet tablecloth. The coins are hastily whisked away by the Vistani fortuneteller. "Your future shall be know." the Vistani purrs as the pastel colored handkerchief is removed from the large crystal ball centered on the table. The room fills with mists of all colors and swirls around the center of a hidden vortex. The ghostly sounds of life and death are heard from newborn babies, teachers providing instructions, and the sounds of the battlefield dying in simultaneous maddening concert. Blocking the distractions and focusing intently on the crystal ball center, a clear vision is formed before your eyes. All extraneous sounds and visions and the incense infused tent is gone.'
I'm looking for individuals who have an encounter they would like to create and play through using Fantasy Grounds. Part of the idea is to have fun playing D&D without the need for a massive commitment with campaigns and other people. Simply, "here you are… Go!" and play for 30 minutes to a few hours.
Requirements: Provide an encounter (Using the D&D 5e Ruleset/books) for a party of 4-5 members, of levels 1-6, and a single character (optionally, more) between level 3-8. The encounter can include maps and NPC stats or generic information such a "Within a large city warehouse … goblins appear throwing daggers …"
Submissions can be in the form of chunks of text which I will copy/paste as needed, all the way to a fancy .mod file which has maps, tokens, and what have you. I'm open to suggestions on transferring files (maybe I'll setup a Google drive folder…)
If you would like would like to play your own encounter, let me know a range of times (and time zone!) you are available. It may take a bit of coordination to get it worked out. The other alternative is someone else can play through the encounter and I'll let you know how it turned out.
One of the recent encounters I read about is a group of 12 standard goblins which use simple resources (digging pits with their hands/weapons and lined/covered the traps with sticks and leaves from the nearby forest) to waylay travelers on a cliffside road. The mount's legs would fall into shallow lattice-like devices preventing them from running or possibly breaking their legs. Spiked rolling logs and clever use of bushes and shortbows made it a challenging encounter for a party of level 6.
The intent is to not pick a CR 6 monster, and then attack it with a level 8 warlock in a standard 40'x40' flagstone room. Or to pick a character immune to fire fighting fire elementals.
Get that creative juice flowing!
