Ep 181 - Monster Series - Ambush Predators

Taking 20 Podcast

Your PCs tend to stroll through life like everything is great. They're walking through the Underdark, not a care in the world, oblivious to everything down here that wants to eat you. It's time to remind them that they may not be the apex predators in the dark places of the world. In this episode I talk about using ambush predators in your game, including one strong caution about how they can make your players feel.
