Running Hydra

Prepare the scene

One head rises above the reeds. Before it has finished turning toward you, two more appear beside it.

Several serpentine heads rise from one heavy body, searching the surrounding space with competing attention. Regrowth makes a prolonged confrontation an uncertain prospect.

Establish the surroundings, each participant’s position, and what the party can perceive before resolving the encounter. Use the current core rules for surprise and turn order when combat begins.
