Show Audio - Trolls Patron Version
🕑 Added 2022-03-24 19:06:00 +0000 UTCHello all! We're back with our regularly scheduled programming with a fresh new monster show all about TROLLS! We love them because, well, they're f*cking disgusting. But if your players know exactly how to deal with them, they lose a lot of their horror appeal. So we dig into them! What they are, why it's cool, what the issues with them are, how to deal with them and, at the end, a whole mess of TROLL TIDBITS - inspirational nuggets that didn't quite fit but we wanted to share nevertheless.
Description from Youtube:
Trolls are an iconic monster in D&D and other TTRPGs and we love how they make for a gross and creepy encounter - but if your group can spot them, then combat can be over quickly. Here's why we find them inspiring and how we keep trolls fresh in our dungeons and dragons campaigns.
