Show Notes
The Miria, Edryk, Berle, Raxon, and Kale have their showdown with Haalu; we explore a piece of Edryk’s past, where it crosses with doctor Haidran.
This episode includes my quick and dirty rules for fighting manoeuvres in OSR games:
Roll your attack as normal.
If you hit, the DM will cut damage dealt in half or down to 0.
The effect goes through.
In the case of grappling, the target cannot move or use a weapon bigger than a dagger until they make a save to break free,
If they cannot break free they become pinned and helpless until they are released.
