The Wonderful World of Darklords

Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! We're continuing last month's theme of "traveling to amazing and faraway places" with a very different elderly darklord who mistrusts outsiders. Up is one of the greatest animated movies ever made, but can it be a great D&D setting as well? Topics discussed include:

• How to make Kevin feel like a singularly beautiful and unique creature in a world with literal unicorns;
• Why Up is especially suited to low-level play (although it can also be adapted to higher-level parties);
• The D&D version of "intelligent talking dogs in airplanes that shoot tranquilizer darts;"
• Why it's critical to enter Paradise Falls with a specific goal in mind in order to make the adventure feel like the movie;
• and more!

The full write-up for Paradise Falls is available for free on DM's Guild: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/514273/Paradise-Falls-A-Ravenloft-Domain-of-Dread?view_as_pub=1
