Listen, I'm not saying that I SHOULDN'T have spent 5 hours on this video edit, because I really do see that time paying off in the sound effects and color edits/graphics and stuff! But I AM saying that if I'd been a little bit lazier, I could've had time to play Baldur's Gate tonight, and that is the true tragedy.

Anyway here's tomorrow's video 😩 It uses the grasping mother!

This is such wonderful advice and I'll definitely apply it going forward! I love the idea of running this. I'm relatively new to the DM'ing thing and building appropriate encounters challenge wise. At the moment I have 3x level 2 PC which I suspect would not be able to take on an encounter like this. What level would you think a three person party would need to be, and how many Lost Children would you recommend be put with the Grasping Mother?

Hitchcock said it in a more concise manner. Suspense is not having someone jump out at you. It's knowing someone is going to jump out and there's nothing you ca do about it.

Hey Nathan! I definitely agree that 3 lvl 2 PCs would get absolutely stomped by this monster. For the Grasping Mother and 2-4 minions, I'd probably wait until they're around level 5. I wouldn't have them encounter her in her lair until level 6.
