The Midnight Loom | Crucible of Creation quest
Quest Level: 11
Format: PBP + Owlbear
Expected Duration: 3-4 hours
Type: Kill and secure
The Lost Artifacts Restoration Group (LARG) has gotten word about an interesting artifact, the Midnight Loom. Said to relate Midnights accession in some way, the loom is rumored to allow for fine tuned control over the weave within its area of influence.
Normally Irit Arroia would be the one to get together a group to retrieve it, maybe some of you even heard about this from him. Unfortunately he seems to be out of commission after his recent trip to Tenebryn. In his stead the Crucible of Creation has posted requests for capable warriors to extract the loom from its current location. You will be meeting with Markus of the LARG at the base of the mountain where the loom is rumored to be.
DM table rules
Here to have fun: Banter is great as long as everyone is civil and respectful.
PvE only: There won’t be a need for PvP. In the rare cases that PvP is relevant it’s only allowed on the condition that every involved party agrees.
Flanking (players and monsters):
If 2 allied creatures are flanking an enemy (draw a center line through) they get a +2 bonus to hit.
If 3 allied creatures are flanking an enemy they can choose between the +2 or advantage
Grappling: 2014 grappling rules. Monks can use dexterity (athletics) when initiating.
The I in RAI: Sometimes the rules are clunky or silly. I’m more than willing to bend them at times.
Fuzzy environment: There are limits to what I might describe in a scene. If you’d like to use something that wasn’t described, it might be there after all, within reason.
In the moment: Everyone is expected to be present. Real life can happen, but give a heads up. If you’re inactive on your turn you risk losing it. If it happens repeatedly you risk removal.
It’s your sheet: Learn your character before the session. Questions may arise, and that’s fine, but you are expected to be able to pilot your character.
Prebuffs (no freebies):
Anything lasting 8 hours or longer can be done “before a short rest”
Anything lasting 1 hour or longer can be done “before initiative”
