@@Scarletraven87 Its going to be an horror like thing. Where they need to get out of the cave while the Ropers and Piercers keep trying to kill them and the Drow they are fighting.
I could imagine a deep gnome in a full, very thin set of platinum armor dumpster diving these things for treasure.

I remember being grappled by one and then being set on fire by the party’s sorcerer. I may have said something like, “do it again and I’ll feed you to the next thing we find or leave you behind.” I was then petty and refused to heal him after smiting a living statue and said it was for setting me on fire
this is a good way to cause paranoia in caves
The underdark teems with horror story encounters. Sounds like a good place to threaten your metagamers with a oneshot.
A strategy for a Ropper and a bunch of Piercers do together is a Ropper on the floor dragging a creature in a line that have the Piercers are waiting to drop them selves. That could kill easily a qualified adventurer.

"Hey there lil' buddy lets get you some lunch so you get big an' strong like ME!...Oo, here come some hapless adventurers now!"
I created an encounter w 1 giant roper in a large cavern, w a pool of blood and offal and the weapons of the fallen below. They killed it… and then never looted its body for the treasure I had planned for it inside and in the pool of blood.
Ptsd of a piercer encounter. Not because of being hit but when they were crawling back up to the ceiling we each focused on one as they scurried and I COULD NOT for the life of me hit mine. I didn't want to waste spells so sent firebolt after firebolt, somehow never hitting the dang thing until another member took pity and stabbed it lol. Lovely days
I'd have a hard time resisting helping a piercer back to the ceiling, if it's failed to hit me.

Ur right I need Cthulhu lore
Ahhh I had an encounter with 4 ropers and a ceiling full of piercers, every 5 feet of movement to a sap ace not previously walked at a changes at 4d6(40ft high ceilings) very fun encounter with the ropers reeling party members away from one another lol
saw your lich video and wondered if you got more detail on the arch lich especially how they manage the degradation apparently without eating souls
roper has been one of my only TPKs. they knew it was in there, and did nothing to prepare, then they kept attacking the regenerating tentacles, and trying to run away, even thought it kept doing reaction attacks, grabbing them, and pulling them back in.
Still holding out for the cat lord. I really want to give him head pats.

Never knew Piercers were Roper Larva, cool
Flashback to my first campaign when my very first character was almost killed by these things.
Still holding out for that Venger short, fingers crossed 🤞
He doesn’t look at all like Me. Roper
I love to imagine that there is a third phase in this creatures life span. One is larva then roapers are the middle phase and maybe there is a third kind that bursts out of the roper at the end and flies. Maybe it’s even a smart creature.
i like the livecycle, like some spec bio in my dnd
I guess you can say Roppers kinda rock!
I had a character who would kill monsters for rare potion ingredients and also had cooks utensils. We killed a roaper my and character started chopping up the tentacles and fried them so the party had fried roaper rings for dinner. I got a 26 on my roll total, DC15 is considered gourmet food. We ate good that night.
Oh wow in time for a new short
Missed your classic ".....alright"
I remember my party had to talk to a roper and all it did was let us take a dragon egg and wanted meat and now we have a black baby dragon named ker
Pairs well with chokers and darkmantles.
Posted my god killing reply on the avatar short. Would love to see a short on Karsus cause his time in dnd was cool and pretty weird
At the end of our most recent P2E game, we entered a cave and a roper immediately grabbed two party members. The rest of us rushed it, attacking its arms to make it let go of the other party members. It then tried to escape up a wall to safety. There is a Wrestler dedication in P2E, which has all kinds of thematic attacks including one very useful one; Suplex. It knocks a grappled foe prone and does extra damage if you're lucky enough to crit, and of course, if they're climbing at the time, they fall. Queue my Monk in Gorilla Stance rushing up the wall, grappling this sucker and sending it hurtling towards the ground. I didn't get the kill, but damn was it satisfying.
I wouldn’t mind seeing you do a segment on Lupins
Nice 2e pic of the piercer.
Piercers are so cute
Do Solar Dragon
Thanks for the info. Always waiting for new posts.
So... while walking through the underdark, just hold my shield above me like an umbrella?

I was just playing a fantasy game with a npc named roper and for a split second I forgot what channel this was and got hyper confused when I saw a weird monster and not a human man
Rock mimics. These are rock mimics.
Fought one in the black pit of Eberron. Boooooy howdy we were almost lava ingredients.
Do a video on Asura

Had my party encounter 2 of them, it should have been a medium encounter. Lost one of the PC's and the rest were forced to flee
