Dungeon23: Greystone - Day 17

The Apothecary

A fairly simple room today, actually. This was once an apothecary's shop. Over the centuries the shelves and cabinets have all fallen apart. The various potions, poultices and cures have run together on the floor and mixed up into three Living Potions. There's a bit of treasure in this place, but explorers will have to get past the potions somehow!

Living Potion
AC 8[11], HD 1, Att 1 x touch (splash effect), THAC0 18 (+1), MV (30') (10'), SV D12 W13 P14 B15 S16, ML 12, AL N, XP 50, NA 1d4

Splash Effects (d4)
1: as Potion of Diminuation
2: as Potion of Gaseous Form
3: Adhesion: covered in sticky slime for 2 hours
4: Trip Out: Hallucinations. No actions for 1 hour

So, that's it!  Like I said, super simple today. See you tomorrow!

Preparing for Dungeon23, Part 3: Resources

Like I mentioned yesterday , today's post is going to be all about resources that I'm going to use to help me on my Dungeon23 project. First up will be this post from Sean McCoy, first laying out the idea for Dungeon23. Specifically, I'm going to draw inspiration from his list of one-word prompts to inspire each week's work. I'll repeat the list here just for reference: Ancient Death Sunken Love Empire Heavy Rural Darkness Bloom Rust Noise Childhood Time Excess Decay City Factory Flood Sleep Cold Ash Touch Meat Solitude Growth Greed Luck Fall Pit Chaos Laughter Smoke Forgotten Library Ocean Song Roots Bones Hangman Blood Prophet Idol Door Light Stars Bridge Mask Cut Sacrifice Incense Rise Gold OK, so those are freaking great. Each word feels like it has so much to offer for inspiration! So many of them seem to fit together thematically as well.  Like "Bloom" (birth or rebirth) followed by "Rust" (decay); or "Greed" followed by "Lu...

Dungeon23: Greystone - Day 4

Today, I learned more about the goblins inhabiting this section of the dungeon. I roughed them out as a faction using the Four Blanks Method from GFC's DND YouTube Channel. You should definitely check out that channel. It is small, but mighty. So, here's what we know about these goblins- Faction: Bloodfeather Goblins Objective: Increased territory Obstacle: Kobolds (TBD) Method: Raids/Warfare This is a discrete band of goblins, who hold some territory here in the dungeon, but would like more. We already know from a previous day that they actually moved here from further down in the dungeon. If they're relatively recent arrivals here, perhaps there are more of them somewhere, thus the need for more space. The chief obstacle to their expansion is kobolds. I'd already had it in the back of my mind that there would be kobolds in the dungeon, but know I know for sure. There must be a population of them somewhere and I assume that the two territories abut one another. The go...

Dungeon23: Greystone - Day 10

SANCTUARY!! Sorry, just channeling my inner Quasimodo there. Anyway, names for different parts of churches vary a lot, but one of the names for the large gathering area which includes the altar is the sanctuary . I think it's a wonderful word, so for this temple, that's definitely what it's called! Yesterday, I mentioned a tiny ritual which needs to be done before entering the sanctuary. Any person entering the sanctuary must pour a dipper of water from the font in 1-8 over their head first. If they do this, that person is "anointed" for one day. Anyone entering the sanctuary who is not anointed is, instead, "reproached". They have the disfavor of the ancient deity upon them. The mechanical effect of being "reproached" is that they have disadvantage on all attack rolls. Disadvantage, of course, is a rule from 5th edition D&D. It's not RAW for Old School Essentials or any 20th century D&D that I'm aware of.  However, I think it...
