On the desk he found maps, notes, and bad poetry about Dragons. The Halfling Rogue searched the alcove once he realized this was someone’s private chambers. The PCs rushed the lone Guard and killed him. The Guard took another quick shot as the PCs emerged from the chute and ducked back out of sight again. The Rogue called down to her allies and then got out of the hole.
The Guard won initiative, shot again, and then ran into an alcove to get cover. One fired a crossbow and the other ran down the passage to the next room, sounding the alarm as he went. Unfortunately two guards were stationed in the room waiting for just this happenstance. There was no subtle way to escape the chute so she pulled the rug aside to climb out. The Elf Rogue easily climbed the ladder until she reached the top of the chute. Hanging from some unseen exit above, was a rope ladder. Behind the false wall was a chute that led upwards. This time they discovered that the relief carving of Tiamat was on a hinge.

The PC then smashed the eggs and left the Roper’s domain.īack in the shrine the PCs searched the room again. Eventually the combined forces of seven PCs using focused fire dropped them. The Guard Drakes moved into melee with the nearby Warlock and Fighter in the pit, but they didn’t last long. With the Roper temporarily satisfied, the PCs focused all the attention on the Guard Drakes. The Roper agreed and the PCs worked together to quickly bring the bodies down the stairs and throw them into the pit. The Elf Rogue offered the dead Barbarians rotting in the Dragon Shrine. After the PCs managed to score a couple of hits on the Roper it said it would stop attacking if the PCs continued to feed it. The grappled PCs managed to escape the Roper but they had difficulty overcoming the monster’s 20 AC. The Halfling Rogue and Human Fighter continued to focus ranged attacks on the Guard Drakes, dropping one. The Fighter and Warlock fought back as best they could. However, the Roper had choicer morsels in it’s grasp and bit down on the Fighter hard. The Ranger, Bard, and Elf Rogue all caught on quickly and tossed the remaining three Kobold bodies into the pit for the Roper. The Ranger was among the closest PCs but was noticeably not attacked by the Roper. After a round of shooting at the Guard Drakes and mostly missing, the Roper again telepathically demanded to be fed and lashed out at the closest PCs, grappling the Dragonborn Fighter and the Warlock. Those with ranged weapons and ranged spells shot at the Guard Drakes who’d cleverly positioned themselves in front of the Dragon eggs. The PCs knew they had to destroy the Dragon eggs but they were certainly hesitant to get close to the Roper. This was not a normal stalagmite, before the party was a huge monster called a Roper. The appendage then brought the body towards the stalagmite’s now open mouth. Before the body hit the floor, a long rope-like tentacle lashed out from one of the stalagmites and grabbed the body. The Ranger looked down at the dead Kobold adjacent to him, and decided to roll it into the pit. However, as the last Kobold fell the Ranger, Bard and Dragonborn Fighter all heard in their minds a telepathic request to “feed me!” The PCs at the top of the stairs heard the commotion and ran down to assist their allies.įour frightened Kobolds proved no match for seven PCs and the fight was over before it began. Two more Kobolds then threw fire pots and lit the glue afire, burning the accelerant and the PCs. Both heroes failed their Dex saves and were stuck. Suddenly two Kobolds appeared from the other recessed area of the room and threw glue pots at the PCs. They’d found their prize time to get the party. As they moved along the ledge they eventually spotted three Guard Drakes guarding three large Dragon eggs. It was surrounded by a cage, much like the one they’d seen in a previous chamber. They spotted a wooden staircase descending into the pit. At the far end of the room was another area that looked like a pit, but the PCs couldn’t see it from their vantage point. The southern half of the chamber dropped 15 feet to reveal a large pit. The large, warm chamber was dark, but both PCs had darkvision so that wasn’t a problem. The Bard and Elf Rogue quietly proceeded down into the humid room while the rest of the party waited in the Dragon Shrine (#9). The table rounded out as follows: Elf Rogue / Arcane Trickster (4), Dragonborn Fighter (4), Halfling Rogue / Assassin (3), Tiefling Bard (3), Tiefling Warlock (3), Elf Ranger (3), Human Fighter (1). The new players had a lot of experience with D&D 2e and 3e, but none with 5e. This week I had seven players at my table, six of my regulars and one brand new player.
