Let's Play D&D! MONSTER SHOWDOWN
🕑 Added 2021-11-28 16:02:10 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Thanks for voting on the poll for our next Patreon wide game session! In order to hit the most timezone's possible and not interfear with work/school, it's going to happen on the Discord, Saturday December 4th, 19:00 GMT!
What is it?
It's the MONSTER SHOWDOWN! You and a group of four other adventurers are being thrown into a pit against some of D&Ds most powerful and iconic monsters! And it's going LIVE on YouTube!
Groups of 5 will go in against a famous, iconic monster and fight to the death as a team, with YouTube chat voting on Lair Actions and random effects to help or hinder you in the battle!
What do I need to play?
You need a Level 11 character, adhering to the build rules linked below. You need to send the build to me either on Patreon or Discord as a PDF on or before Thursday, December 2nd! Remember to check the rules below, they will tell you what gear you can bring!
Are there any other rules?
Because there may be a few of us, and only 5 can play at a time, we need to keep things moving. Be respectful to each other and take your turns as quickly as possible! It's not going to be possible for me to manage chat and argue with players over rulings. If I have to make a call on a ruling or ability, it's what we're going to need to run with, or else it's going to just get crazy! It'll be a fun time, just please be nice to each other, save that anger for the monsters!
How do we play?
We'll play on a public Roll20 account, with you controlling your character's avatar. You DON'T need to have your character imported in Roll20, we're only using it for movement and visual purposes! On Roll20 I'll track your hit points, AC and spell slots.
Is this the Gold Dragon Patreon game for December?
No, this is a bonus game open for all Patreon supporters. Gold Dragons will get a full one-shot adventure as usual which we'll organise next month!
I have questions!
Ask any questions in the comments below this post, as it's likely your question will be shared by someone else!
Thanks for your support everyone, this is will be chaotic as fuck but also a ton of fun!!

Great point! For contingency I would say you could have it but it would need to cost you a 6th level spell slot, as a free contingency would be a bit too OP!
I'm not being a wizard, but what would you rule on a level 11 wizard have a contingency setup a day or so prior to the fight? If so would you allow a wizard to have contingency setup and still allow them access to their 6th level spell slot?
I'd say yes to all of those, you can have one thing prepared to bring with you, if it's a spell or ability with duration of 1 hour or more, and you mark off the resource used (e.g. one wildshape use for a wildfire elemental summon as a wildfire druid)
Preparation spells like Heroes Feast similar-ish ruling as mage armor? Find Familiar for Druid through expending a wild shape use same ruling as mage armor? Find Familiar for Wizard as ritual prep?
