Homebrew Monsters - Tumblr Posts

I can't believe this

My DND players just absolutely clowned on my insane homebrew monster....this is what I get for hyping up how strong an enemy is going to be for three months.

The beast of bedlam was an absolutely cracked monster that they needed to get past

363 HP 22AC +15 to hit, multi attack and every attack hits harder than a fireball. Ranged and melee options even an AOE, regeneration, and whenever you hit it you have to save against going flying 30ft and landing prone, it could fly it had legendary resistance and magic resistance ........this thing was all of the awesomeness i could muster without guaranteeing a TPK against my LV 7 players ....or so i thought

They spent over a week (in game )prepping tons of glyphs of warding to make all this happen at once . ....then they Polymorphed into giant apes, enlarged themselves further, got hasted, greater invisibility, freedom of movement and armour of faithed up. Then when this thing was asleep they jumped it

They killed it in three rounds.....that's 18 seconds in game time a little over an hour of our actual lives

The beast of bedlam that had been the scourge of a continent for a thousand years only got two turns before they killed its ass.

(in all seriousness I am glad my players had fun and got to feel powerful.....but I am still a little sad to see my creation die quite so anticlimacticaly )
