huh that weird

ahh shit didn't account for that

>I was gonna make you lose everything but I thought that was too much
I'm lucky then huh
this is why we have rules for shit like this, inexperienced DM's are the worst. I stocked up on magic items to avoid just this.

Rules were never going to help you.
The DM was trying to TPK.

>>53231114
Two things.
What is your character?
Make sure you sell that Wyvern skin, or turn it into clothes.
I smell a magical realm coming along.

>half orc
>AC of the dragon is low but I can probably sell it as genuine dragon leather or at least make some light armor from it
>DM's been hinting that he's going full magical realm
>he's has NPC's flirting with our characters.
>>53231273
I knew it.
Make sure you turn the dragon leather into leather armor then, to show of your characters muscles.Or don't wear anything at all.

And that's why you play a spellcaster who is not as dependent on gear as martials are. Sure, he might take away your spellbook but there's always the option to play a Sorcerer.
>>53231114
That's what you get for not rolling up a luchanon
>>53231327
>play a sorcerer
>get Eschew Materials so I don't have to keep track of things like bat guano for fireballs, feathers for feather fall and etc.
>DM still makes me track and use spell components because "reasons".
>Lose spell component pouch during a fight.
>mfw DM says I cant cast spells with material components until I replace all of them.

I think he badly wants a TPK just so he can make us feel that the stakes are higher but he wants to do it in a "fair" way. but it's impossible due to the sheer bullshit homebrew classes he let into the campaign.
seeing as I'm the only non homebrew class he's probably trying to kill my character just to add some drama.
>>53231387
See? That's the beauty of it. Play a Sorcerer with Eschew materials and it'll be painfully obvious when they fuck with you
>>53231114
Quit the game and find a better GM.
Or BE a GM and show him how it's actually supposed to be done.
