Bliss? Is that what the feeling is called when you're arm is being ripped off by an Owlbear?

The owlbear's the least of your worries...

...For now...

On an entirety unrelated note, I'm actually pretty glad the big monster for this adventure isn't the Bandersnatch.

Pathfinder 1e statted that thing out, and one variant of it was a CR 19 melee beast that projected a 10-foot antimagic field at all times.

Absolutely diabolical creature to throw at a party.

Good thing it's not in this module! ^_^

*proceeds to take notes behind the green curtain*

On a different note, this party does technically have a Jub Jub Bird! XD
*Looks straight at Jub the Wizard*

Oh good fucking god you brought back bad memories of that THING

@fellsing Want to have Jub add anything before the next DM post? ^_^

Eh... nah, I don't think I have anything much to add.

At this point, I think he's resigned to Brutrumukk just doing things and doesn't think there is much to stop him xP

Ok. Thank you for letting me know. ^_^

I will get the next DM post up ASAP. (Can’t really write one up on a phone during lunch break at work. ^^”)

@Guardian Angel Haruki

If Brutrumukk were to give the owlbear all 8 days of his jerky, how many days of rations would he have with the remaining dried fruit, hardtack, and nuts?

I would say he would still have 8 days of rations with just the dried fruit, hardtack, and nuts.

@Guardian Angel Haruki were there any signs of game animals in this area?

Not in this immediate area, no.

Makes sense with the large predator harnessed to the chariot.

Now look what you've all done, now it wants all our meat! 😂

Obligatory math because nerd:

Assuming each ration contains roughly of jerky, all 8 rations would collective contain 2 lbs. of jerky.

Owl bears weigh between 1300 to 1500 lbs, canonically, putting them on par with polar bears in terms of weight. On average, polar bears need to consume more than 4 lbs of fat to meet their 12,000 calorie daily intake requirements. However, being large carnivores, they're capable of eating well over 20,000 calories in a day when food is abundant which would be closer to 7 lbs.

Jerky has roughly 80 calories per ounce, so 4 oz from one ration would be 320 calories and all 8 rations would put it at 2,560. A bit more than 1/10th the daily caloric intake of a predator the size of an owl bear, and dramatically less calories than would be available in an equal serving of fat (which has well over double the calories per ounce as jerky.)
All of which is assuming Brutrumukk's rations are what's leftover from his time as a bug bear.

The metaphor here would be something like offering a hungry, adult man a child's portion of Chinese food and asking if he's still hungry.

Obligatory math because nerd:

Assuming each ration contains roughly

4* oz [+]

*4 oz. of jerky translates to roughly 113 grams. At roughly 40% protein by volume, that would be 45 grams of protein. The average adult male human needs 56 grams of protein per day, while the average adult woman needs 46 grams. The dried fruit and hard tack would all have small amounts of protein, while the nuts would have a considerable amount of protein. Likely more than enough to account for the daily needs of an adult human. Assuming bug bears would favor rations that lean more heavily on the meat, 4 oz. of jerky (which would be 1/8th the total weight of the 2 lb. ration) seems appropriate.

That certainly helps, especially because the Module gave me the exact amount that this Owlbear needs to eat for their diet plan. ^_^

I should also note, since we're getting into specifics...Brutrumukk's rations have a noticeable swamp water taste to them. XD

I'm not funny I know

@Guardian Angel Haruki Probably should have verified this sooner, but Voth has been in Prismeer long enough to know about the three rules, right? I don't personally recall the penalties for breaking them, but would Voth have seen what happens when they're broken? Now that the three are in charge, I mean.

Voth would know that it is unclear right now. The three that are in charge are less inclined to punish those who break the rules. But the rules hold weight on their own and somehow enforce themselves at this point.

@Lurking Krog Go ahead and roll Investigation with advantage when it comes to learning the Owlbear's name.
