The Puzzle Box – Dragon Empire Prep Session 9

This is going to totally hose up my ability to make this one page of notes. So let's see. Animated armors would be one. Guardian skeletons would be another. Thoth Hermes is the god of knowledge and learning, the wise creator of language. We could have lost explorers, learned specters. That's a good one. Let's see. Any other kind of encounters we need?

I was just looking at the monster vault two preview and we could use as a, as a beast that's wandering through. Look at that guy. What is that? That thing's nasty. Fen lurcher. Mage knight is a CR five.

Everyone loves giant centipedes. Animated armors, guardian skeletons, lost explorers, learned specters, centipedes. We could have like living spells. Do you remember like the living spells that I think, were they in Eberron?

I think we had living spells in Eberron, but we could have like, you know, animated scrolls that cast spells. Animated spell scrolls could be fun. I think that sounds like a good time. Treasure, I think we're gonna put more treasure in here beyond just the puzzle box. So we will go to our random thing here and we're gonna pick a one to four treasure and go bang.

Our rogue will love that.
