Really appreciate this video. I’m really interested in the Carnival setting but haven’t found a ton of resources to help inspire encounters
Thanks for the kind words! Yeah it can be a tricky one on the encounters front, simply because it isn't necessarily a combat-heavy location compared to some other domains (at least IMO). If in doubt though, I'd say that the best bet is evil fey creatures who are after Isolde.
You know, some of the stuff back from World of Warcraft's Darkmoone Faire might also be interesting to work into things
Ooo, interesting! I'll check it out. Thanks!
Thanks for making this content! I've been looking for resources to tie in Curse of Strahd to Wild Beyond the Witchlight and this is the best tie in I've found. :D
Thanks for the kind words, Juan! 😃
Really helpful vid! I’m very interested in running a Sorrowsworn encounter now.
Could I ask what level your group was when you ran the Carnival?
Thanks! Oh gosh, now there's a question... I think they were Level 12 when they first went there? But for the Hungry battle there were only two of them, plus 2-3 NPC allies with CRs ranging from 2 to 6, and Isolde. With the action economy it wasn't a difficult fight, but it still downed Isolde and took a chunk out of an NPC, especially given its Life Hunger attack (its attacks get stronger if someone heals). Then I think they were Level 13 when they returned later (that was when they fought the two annis hags). Hope that helps!
