Found this useful in terms of discussing monsters, what they're for, how to present them, and that you don't need mechanical effects for "hates mirrors" for it to be real in the game.

I'm four sessions into a Dolmenwood campaign (using the Patreon previews) for six players, four of whom are absolute TTRPG newbies. It's been a blast seeing the sense of wonder and players wanting to explore the world without a more "modern" focus on stats and abilities. I love being able to introduce a new generation of gamers to the style of play that made me fall in love in 1981.

IDK Dolmenwood but I love these monsters. RE: Banshee weakness: I would think the silence spell would shut down her special abilities almost entirely. I guess it doesn't actually say the curse is speech-based, but that feels like a natural weakness for a banshee so I would let that work. "The banshee, unable to speak its curse, just flips you off and fades into harmless mist." If there is no silence spell, I guess you could fill her corpse's mouth with holy water in daylight, meaning if she uses her scream she'll "drown," making it a challenge to find the body before night falls.

While not what you said, I like the idea of a Gargoyle being “Litigious”

This is wonderful. This is what is missing in my fantasy experience. Strange misty woods with spirits of fairytales, strange rules. Mortal danger for the unwise and the chance of survival and treasure for the clever and quick.

Hi Chris! If you need a suggestion for what to read next, you should do a read through of the players guide to Crown and Skull by Runehammer that just released. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

On a trinket table for character creation you can roll a hand from a gelatinous ape. One of my wife's characters got it and it really bothers her 🤣 It's fantastic stuff and I'm really happy that you're going for something in a similar vein.

Backed. The campaign I am using to migrate from 5e to OSR. The monster blocks as well as the previous adventures really sold me on this version. I like it how it leans more towards 1e more so than even advanced fantasy. Nice sweet spot.

[@paavohirn3728]

Dolmenwood is fantastic! Gonna check out Mythic Bastionland as well when it comes out!
