Episode description

Headphone warning: Occasional dog barks


Promising drow who failed the test of their spidery goddess, Lolth, are cursed to become Driders and remain in the Underdark. Do you need an AC boost, but your hands are full? Try an animated shield to free up those hands for casting or dual-wielding. Did you player request something outside of the general rules or something that would usually require a few checks to complete. Try the rule of cool and see how things play out.


Monster: Drider, MM 120

Magic Item: Animated Shield, DMG 151

Just the Tip: The Rule of Cool
