  • Hey D&D peeps!
    This is my brief retelling of Out of The Abyss. This campaign was a loooooong read and boy, it was a tough one.
    Here's the website that helped carry me through:

    When I played through, somehow the demon lords all ended up killing each other (don't remember exactly who, but one of them did burst damage as it died and killed the one remaining) so the party never had to lift a finger. it was GREAT

      Wow, that's pretty great! Honestly, just exploring the Underdark is most of the fun when it comes to this adventure.

      My players each controlled a demon lord in the fight. One of them flew up into the air, and the other remaining lord teleported onto his back, killing him. Then they both fell 300 feet, which killed the last one. It was epic.

      I would suggest keeping zuggtmoy alive depending on how many you have in your party. I did this with my campaign and it was a long fight to the end. And Orcus won. I was hoping the demogorgon would but my players killed that one first. Lol the reason I say zuggtmoy is good is because you can play as her and allow some aid in case one player gets ganged up on. I felt bad for him when it was happening but I only had 4 players in my party

    Some ideas for playing the fish race: When you interact with them, you should know that they exist, still, in their own aquatic reality. When you speak about things that are specific to air-dwellers, they will simply look at each other without understanding and expect you to clarify for them without asking you -- afterall fish use gestures more than words and these are gestures of their race to indicate their lack of accord. Also, they understand food rewards. Also, you should know that the descriptions of the main fish-characters come from an attempt by air-dwellers to describe their culture. You must re-interpret BACK into fish-life rather than rely on their anthropization of this race.

      It's pretty good! I'd say Out of The Abyss is one of the more strange adventures to explore. Lots of weird stuff goes on in the Underdark. Give it a go and hope you enjoy it!

    All I thought there was in Out of the Abyss was spiders, drows and mushrooms. But holy hell is the story amazing. They way the adventure is written does not give a good idea of what is happening and your video enlightened me in the literal sense. Good work mate, please don't stop.

    In our campaign Gromph magic jar’d his brother and impersonated him, tricking us into casting a ritual to summon an avatar of Lolth. So we “failed” in our quest to stop the demons when we were level 14. I say “failed” since the campaign is still ongoing until we reach level 20.

    I've watched a few of your videos now, and you have a way of making anything you cover sound fun to run as a DM. If I only had 5 copies of myself, I'd run alot more than I currently am.

      Haha, I get that! DnD is certainly a time commitment. While I enjoy running the D&D adventures, I also really love reading them.
