So it's looking like at least the first 20 was the GM's... :-/

@scribus Once our DM rolled 4 natural 20s within 5 minutes (what it felt like). It was brutal. After the second 20 he rolled the dice openly because it was unbelievable (I believed his rolls nonetheless but it was a spectacle).

@adiwan Dang, dude... Sometimes, I roll behind the screen so that I can claim a nasty 20 was only an 18 or so.

@scribus A good DM knows when to fudge and when not. That barrage of nat 20s was quite memorable and thrilling. We survived, but barely. Soon-ish I will take over as a DM for a one-shot adventure. I will fudge the dice but I will keep all natural 1s and 20s as they fall.

@scribus I don't know when that happens but I guess it'll be within the next 4 months. I just need to think about what I want to present. Recently we found a "Star Gate", so anthyding can hadplen.

@scribus We run a custom campaign setting. Basically our characters went to an undiscovered country, far far away from their own, and settled there. Basically it's a frontier settling next to old civilization ruins (2 days of travel away in a jungle). Basically dragons and dragonborns were the Goa'uld (Stargate) and enslaved other worlds to support their own. The ruins next to our settling were abandoned a long time after a bloody revolt of yet unknown history behind that. This is so far as I know it. Last session we learned that dragons were behind of this and all that stuff.

@adiwan Neat! I always preferred custom settings, myself. Keeps the players from reading ahead, lol.
