[Spoilers C2E73] Can We Talk About...

It's a narrative driven game and I completely agree thay it wouldn't have held any weight.

At the same time, I just wish Matt had been consistent with how the Remorahz and the whip interacted with each other. I would've found the events to be much more believable. At first it simply pulls fjord into the hole, no questions asked.. Which is how it should've worked - you can't grapple something more than one size larger than you are, and the whip doesn't specify that it breaks that rule. Then fjord somehow doesn't rip in half when the Cat's Ire fished him out of the hole. Remorahz weigh over 20,000 pounds. The whip is magical, I can buy it not being torn to pieces but dice be damned his body can't survive that, and even if we allow for the dice to determine that, a 17 doesn't do it. Later on the Remorahz can't move it all because fjord restrained it with the whips action. Then Matt allows the creature to make a contested Str roll to move. Not to break the grapple+restrain, but to move at all.

The whole thing made no sense to me. Obviously it's their table, their rules, and they play fast and loose with RAW anyways. But at least keep your rulings consistent from round to round.
