Hey guys, I feel like something that should be introduced into the module as a narrative element more than anything.

I can imagine a moment where the PC's are travelling and exploring Icewind Dale, and a REAL blizzard comes through, to the point that it becomes obvious that the PC's have to get to the nearest shelter - some kind of creepy lodge/bunker that trappers or hunters used. Stranded there in isolation with whatever strangeness you can imagine happening on the outside, being buried inside. Rooms with Things in them in the basement.

Alternatively, it could be a less sinister thing and become a beautiful RP session where the party has to wait a few days in a blizzard and have a cabin fever session with maybe a small holiday or a charming little story with chwingas in the basement and forgotten love or anything you could think of.

​

I think this is a very powerful narrative tool for any DM to use for their story, and one that I will definitely be using either when the party needs some hardcore horror or when I need to lighten things up and give them a break.

Let me know what ideas you guys have for what you could use this for! :) :) :)
