My aim on this blog is to provide useful information for dungeon masters and players alike, both new and experienced.

I’m starting off with what will be a weekly post. Every Thursday I will post an open Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition encounter. By open I mean there is no strict way to play it. The purpose is to get a Dungeon Master’s creative juices flowing.

Runes and Dragon Heads, Oh My

My Take

The dragon heads spew constant fire until disabled by deactivating both of the larger runes on the east and west walls.

The two smaller orange runes on the other side of the dragon can be used to teleport allies or enemies. I would say 3 or 4 squares from their current position in any direction. Control of the rune must be had first with an arcana check. It can only be used while standing on it.

I would use a mix of artillery and skirmisher monsters.

What’s your take?
