That’s dangerously close to apologia, and at the very least hopefully naive, all due respect, fellow poor. 🙏🏼

So, you… 🎵fell down as tiiired ball o’ fire🎵, then?

Did you say Wyld magic?! 🦄

But, what about the Sassoon hair?

Instant Death

Massive damage can kill you instantly. When damage reduces you to 0 hit points and there is damage remaining, you die if the remaining damage equals or exceeds your hit point maximum.

Per Ghosts of Saltmarsh, a ship roughly trolley size (though ~¼ its weight) does 25d10 bludgeoning when crashing, (considering a trolley approaching a track switch tends toward 10-15mph, ramming rules seemed excessive).

The party restrained on the tracks may or may not be immobilized as well, but regardless: 25d10 bludgeoning may very well one-shot each and every one of them instantly, and then some.

Side note: you subconsciously pilfer for the proletariat? Sounds like a tough gig. Your ire is likely well-placed, and I support your low-altitude efforts. 🤘🏼

Something tells me that researcher wasn’t allowed to hold the staff and just decided to cover for lack of citable valuation spec. Or, the bearer at the time paid their academic fees, etc.

Either way, everything has a price, no matter if it’s for sale —especially to a D&D party. 😐 It may not manifest as commerce, but it will cost them.

The trick is getting said sovereign into glue form in the first place. That’s basically why the item’s so rare. They’re super wily, that way.

See? Now, I’m curious what other fun spells’d come outta flipping the word order of existent ones. 🤩

Like, would conjuring a Hand Mage call up a street magician?

Also, would Person Hold be a ritual hug spell?

Or, Cage Force grant a target incredible Con-Air hair?

That’s an odd way to cast Fireball, but sure. 🧏🏼

Even if you don’t like that solution, the chance that someone at the table does and has it loaded, is firmly nonzero.

Nah, that’s the lore bard just waiting for the trolley to be w/in range of the pompous wizard on the lever while everyone else yells their opinion at said poindexter…

S/he’s about to drop an up cast fireball on the trolley, “accidentally” take out the wizard, and get the party to the next puzzle to break …on the way to cracking their DM’s resolve. ☝🏼

Considering Gygax was notorious for gleefully murdering PC (mine incl [thx GC]), this also tracks for RAI, IMHO.

Obviously: while the rest of the party argues, the trigger-happy blaster drops an upcast fireball on the trolley.

Next puzzle, dungeon “master”. 😅😶

watching… and not doing anything about it…

😅

The trouble with that, I feel, may lie in the subtle differences between

• the CEO kind of psychopath: batshit unplugged for sure, no contest; just enough to make fucktons of money for far too few people, but not too cracked that they blow everything up, instead…

• and, any given bot’s penchant for going off the fucking’ rails in record time, every time —which, unless you short the whole thing, makes the opposite of money.

🤭

Hey, if D&D wasn’t created by a bunch of weird li’l guys to play weird li’l guys in their favorite story world (LotR), then I’ll find one that was inspired to do so. 🤪

Why would it matter, then? Buy new milk, put it in the fridge wherever you want, finish the previous container, move new container to its proper spot.

This isn’t that difficult to solve.

A “lemming”, from the old lemmenapnowtrix.

Me too!
