coming back to this particular video 5 years later, because i'm bringing this concept to my players tonight! thanks for the great content, Hank, it truly stands the test of time.
Just wanted to let you know that you have completely inspired someone to not only play d&d but also create my own game world for when I start dm’ing. Thank you for contributing to the community
Wow! Cool encounter. Hankerin, you just sold me on crafting. I've never been interested before or ever wanted to have extra "clutter". But, it really adds an element that you just can't get from anything else. Very cool! Your work is truly an inspiration.
Say the character falls off. DM looks like an meanie. Wind blows up...there they are, flying in the wind! Characters have three rounds to capture them and pull them back to the stair, where the wind cannot find them. I may use flumpfs instead of flame skulls for my campaigns with kids, to lighten it up. The flumphs would attack every other turn randomly, only on the downwind. I would also stick a bunch of dying flumphs on the stair for added slipperyness to force the two stair leap. Great encounter Hankerin' and thanks.
Dayuuuung!! I would love to play in one of your games. I'm my groups DM. Just found your channel. Lovin' what I'm see in'! Keep this good stuff coming!
Another great video, man! I love your room designs, they're so mechanically and thematically awesome! I applied your timer and threat factors into a Dwarven puzzle room I had made for my group last week, and it turned it from "right, let's think about how to crack this" to "HOLY HELL WE NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT PRONTO!" - keep up the good work!
That sounds like a really good encounter , i think I might steal some of that for my game , great vid as always ...keep making these awesome videos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup still my favorite room! watched this a couple of times. What level were the characters during this adventure? Cheers and keep these Rooms coming! (I know you're busy, but I love these vids!) Cheers!
This is awesome! Wish I could find the time to make some of these awesome terrains! I've been wanting to do a 3D terrain version of original D&D adventure White Plume Mountain for quite some time.
First the buck knife, THEN I notice I also have Anduril. Nice. Something I have been wondering. What do you do with all those rooms you create? Is it in storage? Do you recycle it for other projects?
All stored in a modular system..the more crap I make the less I have to make for subsequent rooms. There's a vid coming on my whole "room bookshelf." And hell yeah Anduril! Finally someone who doesn't think it's Narsil ;}
where'd these skeleton's come from then? some evil necromancer or did they awaken them somehow? trying to do some if this kind of stuff for my own campaign and i'm stuck on how to get the skeletons to start a-comin'
Do you ever play D&D without minis, just all theater of the mind? I always find myself alternating between them depending on the year and what's popular. One year it'll be "Oh man, minis are the best!" and the next it'll be "You've gotta be kidding me! You don't only use theater of the mind?"

even in 2022, one of best tabletop rpg classes ever. 👊
The verticality really sells it.
Whenever I enter a room and there's a strange, unnatural wind, I just blame it on the other guy.

Favorite room so far. This is the one I think utilizes the 3D best, such a unique feel you can't get otherwise.

Always look forward to your room designs. Freaking brilliant design, simple yet complex and thematic.

Thanks man! No sign o' stoppin!
I love the flaming skull idea!
love this channel more than a hundred hams
im using so much of your under dark stuff when my party gets there at whatever level they are at
That sounds like a really good encounter , i think I might steal some of that for my game , great vid as always ...keep making these awesome videos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It ain't stealin' when you announce it! Go forth and conquer!
Has a player, I'd have been so eager to actually use the wind blows up moment to make an awesome long jump! 😁

they were I think 4 th ish
So how did you make the staircase? Or at least what is it made of? I bought a big ol' foam block to try and make one so hopefully it turns out alright
yep its just one huge piece
Thanks! After watching more of your other videos I figured it's that polystyrene from Lowes.
This is awesome! Wish I could find the time to make some of these awesome terrains! I've been wanting to do a 3D terrain version of original D&D adventure White Plume Mountain for quite some time.
Jason Raper If you keep it simple, it's not that time consuming!
Try some Skullport grade flame skulls for a high-level challenge.
LOOK OUT HANKERIN! THERE IS A FLAMESKULL BEHIND YOU! ON YOUR BOOKCASE!!!
Jacob Oborny it calls to us...
Dis gud room
id be sooooooooo tempted to make this model stand like 3 feet tall at the top end of the stair lol
Outstanding
Good job with focus pulling ;) you can spare the beatings today
Always a gamble with tiny shit :]
How do you get your players to actually engage with that? Mine would just leave the dungeon find ANY way around it.
thadrine notice the pursuit by army of skeletons! high action scenes are hard for players to squirm out of. see also my vid about rest

OOOH modular system, I had an idea of doing that but wasn't sure of how to go about it. Looking forward to it.
I know my blades SIR
Hey there Hankrin I want to make stairs similar to those in this video, are they one single piece or several pieces glued together?
+Seth Weber one slab!
Thanks
where'd these skeleton's come from then? some evil necromancer or did they awaken them somehow? trying to do some if this kind of stuff for my own campaign and i'm stuck on how to get the skeletons to start a-comin'
they had been in chase from teh previous room
Soth was using them to capture teh sword stones
Awesome as usual although I think you guys needs a manual focus camera. It anyways seems out of focus.
+Addramyr Palinor yep. auto sucks
so cool

It's all mini's in 2015 for us. I could see Dungeon World being waaaay more fun just as imagination.
fuck yeah
So how would you do this in roll20?
i wouldnt
i loveu
