Primary Monster

 


At last! Your players have earned the right to face the monster. However, do your research. Many monsters have "Special" attacks and/or actions you will need to know before the big battle.

After this little scare, have them make a Fear check. If fail, they will be at -2 disadvantage for the next battle until they can make a successful Fear check.  Random Acts of Horror For No Reason Whatsoever A rotting corpse appears for a split second at the edge of your vision. You could SWEAR you are hearing someone chanting your name.  The spirit of a witch burned at the stake has returned for vengeance, appearing as a flaming pillar in the town square each night.
