Haha, right now I'm very much into "try it and see" layout and there was one version of the map that was just slug body, with it largely off screen, but I decided that was both not to size and too silly.

Thanks for reading! I've got more stuff planned to write (but also a 6yo kid, ha, so we'll see what actually happens).

Good question! I was thinking 1-3 -- the encounters besides the big slug god are around LV 2-3 (or modified to be lower, like the bear with half HP) but I kinda hope people find non-fighty solutions to most of the encounters.

Thanks for the kind words! I was really trying to keep it tidy and open-ended, so glad that hit right! (I was/am a little worried it might fall on the side of "needs more guardrails/GM help.")

Oh, wow, please tell me how it goes!

Aw, thanks! I'll confess that the scenario was inspired by the image.

Aw, geez, you're too kind -- but I'll take it even so! Thanks for the encouragement!

Aw, thanks!
