God I wish my party had time to over-prepare. Shit just keeps getting worse.
I go into these sessions with a mindset of “well, at least we can’t be more screwed than we already are” and then the entire fucking army shows up or the Big Bad shows up with a three-headed kaiju that can breathe cones of hellfire, acid, and regenerating zombie snakes. We are level 3! What the fuck.
I believe you can beat the kaiju who breathes regenerating zombie snakes! You can do it!
I don’t think its a matter of beating it at this point. At the beginning of the campaign, there were 50 remaining children who we were supposed to be protecting. There are now 12 left, all of them are trapped with my character in their grandma’s house, there’s a army controlled by their aunt outside who are trying to find and kill them, the roc kaiju is likely circling overhead to attack us if we try to sneak out, the poison bomb they killed most of the children with is billowing out of the school next door and is heading downwind towards us, and the Emperor is being held hostage by the snake-generating dog kaiju. Also half the party went off to fight a necromancer with a couple of the princes, and are currently stuck in the catacombs behind a 30 ft deep wall of said princes’ dead relatives.
We just need to get the kids out somehow, and I’m not confidant we can do that
