The supernatural is perfectly normal in eccentric Hawkinge-By-Hythe. When fish rain from the sky, it just means free dinner. Only professional sceptics, the Alumière sisters—witches, according to the locals—worry there’s worse to come... After a message from God, Reverend Gresstart enlists the righteous Mrs Pengle to spread the word. But she wants revenge more than she wants to get to heaven. As the weather worsens, literally raining cats and dogs, the Alumières race to dig up the truth. Even if no one wants them to. With the townsfolk rioting over what the Lord wants, the Alumières have their hands full. And that’s without the mystery of the whistling well, the buried catapults, or the man raising the dead with a parrot. All while running a chemist shop and becoming honorary aunts. Grab your best umbrella, salvation's in the air. So are fish. The Forgotten Creatures is the third standalone adventure in this whimsically bonkers series!

Download or read book The Monsters Know What They re Doing written by Keith Ammann and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular blog The Monsters Know What They’re Doing comes a compilation of villainous battle plans for Dungeon Masters. In the course of a Dungeons & Dragons game, a Dungeon Master has to make one decision after another in response to player behavior—and the better the players, the more unpredictable their behavior! It’s easy for even an experienced DM to get bogged down in on-the-spot decision-making or to let combat devolve into a boring slugfest, with enemies running directly at the player characters and biting, bashing, and slashing away. In The Monsters Know What They’re Doing, Keith Ammann lightens the DM’s burden by helping you understand your monsters’ abilities and develop battle plans before your fifth edition D&D game session begins. Just as soldiers don’t whip out their field manuals for the first time when they’re already under fire, a DM shouldn’t wait until the PCs have just encountered a dozen bullywugs to figure out how they advance, fight, and retreat. Easy to read and apply, The Monsters Know What They're Doing is essential reading for every DM.
