This episode of our ongoing Dungeons & Dragons 5e campaign, the Guardians of Indir, has the players enjoying a bit more NPC interaction than usual, as they get into character for more roleplay (it’s been long enough since they did much in-character interaction that some of the players are even surprised at Lucia’s voice for Kantu!). Is this normal? Only time will tell.
I (DM Harold) had a hard time naming this episode, because there were so many good lines from this portion of the game that would have served equally well. For example:
“Surrounded by idiots”
“I’m a telepathy!”
“I’m not sure I like that (but maybe I do)”
“Spiking the kobold”
“I don’t think that was the right way to do that.”
“I want to help”
“Sounds like a mental disorder”
and the classic “Blame Steeev!”
As I post this to allagesrpg.com, it’s more than a year after we actually played this session (we played it in March 2018!). Our game schedule is pretty cyclical. With kid players (at the time, all of our players were in 12th grade or under), the game schedule is strongly affected by the school semesters. So we’re coming up on a break in the game, when we first started playing another RPG! Don’t worry; we have continued to play D&D 5e as well in the months since then; we’ve just been alternating as schedules prevent one or another player from joining us for a session.
