It's fine. Just my poor attempt in humor.

@Lurking Krog

I laughed even if i was confused lol

[Metal Head]

Curses, this whole town is a damn curse...burned alive, ice serial killer, missing fishermen, blood stain books,

I bet hunting a giant looks more pleasant now lol

@HEAVY METAL

Just be glad you don't have the Slaad tadpole in ya. That's a chest burst and insta-death for your character.

Also the ice knife murders are all around the Ten-Towns where humanoid sacrifice is done, not just Easthaven.

Jitter will make sure not to piss in water or eat snow or however you get something like that in ya...oh shit, it's not like the scarab beetle on Mummy is it?

[Lurking Krog]

No much more terrifying. Slaad are extra-planer and only reproduce by leaving an egg in a host that they attacked. There are different colors, each with different ranking and can create different colors based off of a host being a caster of a certain level.

@Lurking Krog

I fought slaad before, but it was in 2nd edition. I cant remember bout the tadpole stuff, maybe our DM took it easy on us lol or i forgot, that was a long time ago.

Here is the wiki page for them.

They may have been changed since 2e.

@Lurking Krog

After looking at that and then my MM 2e, they are still pretty dangerous in both, but 2e just a slight more dangerous because of spells.
I did notice white and black slaads are not in 2e.

[Metal Head]

It's late and I'm sleepy, night all. 😴

[Metal Head]

96° today, probably be back on later tonight after it cools down.

@HEAVY METAL

Bout the same here and the heat index bumps it to about 104 105.

[Metal Head]

@Lurking Krog

Did you want Jitter to roll to figure she might be talking about Chwingas?

[Lurking Krog]

@HEAVY METAL

No, he is free to presume that it is chwingas that she causing the problem. To be sure further information will be needed though.

[The Large Dumbo]

@Lurking Krog

Kythor's going to head over to the window that was mentioned, the one that these spirits seem to prefer, and he's going to try to examine it to the best of his ability. He'd like to check for tracks, but he'd also like to make sure there's nothing unusual with the window itself, like a loose hinge or some other design flaw that would cause it to open abruptly for seemingly no reason.

Wisdom(Perception) Check: 1d20+6=17

@The Large Dumbo

That's more of an investigation check for checking the window.

You rolled high enough though you do notice tiny tracks leading away from the home to a thicket nearby.

[Metal Head]

@The Large Dumbo
Maybe a good idea to break out the lantern.

[Lurking Krog]

@The Large Dumbo

Roll a survival check.

[The Large Dumbo]

@Lurking Krog

Wisdom(Survival) Check: 1d20+6=20

Got a 20! Good thing, too - this kind of stuff's right up Kythor's alley.

(now watch as I proceed to roll a nat 1 on my next ability check I have proficiency in)

[Lurking Krog]

If Kythor looks through the thicket he will see three chwingas with the missing cutlery around a pinecone and some leaves. One is holding a knife the other a fork, they all appear to be pretending to eat.

[Metal Head]

I didnt roll Deception because Jitter isnt trying to deceive them, he is trying to befriend them and give them something to eat.. 🤓
