    Wouldn't it have been a fun twist if all the listless skeletons are actually there as a result of the Animate Dead spell that Craig cast in the earlier episode because it was a more powerful version of the spell than they realized?

  • @gargamellenoir8460

    The debate on whether undead are necessarily evil pleasantly reminded me of Planescape Torment where they are just a thing, and destroying them on sight kind of makes you an ass.

The fact it's one week of this and then of Icewind (Candlekeep for now!) keeps it fresh, and I like to see Merchant getting to both DM and play.

    I play the DnD games but I've never played tabletop. This is my first time listening through a campaign. It's the prequel to Baldur's Gate 3 with an epic story of an angelic army invading Hell and a team of adventurers travel into Hell themselves to try to prevent Baldur's Gate descent into Hell. Even a trinity of evil deities.
    I got to the last hour of this episode that I've spent over 12 hours so far listening to it and so far the adventures are still cluelessly bumbling along, still having not found their way to Hell. I've given up on it at this point with 36 episodes in total. Is this typical for a DnD campaign or is this module just a bit of a mess?

      @@dylanburgdorf Close! I give the option to standard array, but always prefer the chaos of the dice for the characters. There is a "hero" rule I use for dice rolls though, if your 3d6d1 for all stats does not net you 15 or higher on any roll, you can re-roll the whole batch. I do think most players here rolled for stats.
