You're all crazy, it's been proven that the optimal move for turn 1 is

Phipps Bridge

to

Morden Road

. I take 3 poison counters as a result, but I'm really close to a Star Space and gain one Winds of Magic die.

Alright, you probably see where I'm going with this, but:

Morden Road

to

Phipps Bridge

That's another 3 poison counters and a second Winds of Magic die

Phipps Bridge

to

Morden Road

.

That's 9 poison counters so I can't make that move any more, but that's enough for me to put my plan into action. I'll use all 3 of my winds of magic dice:

Original Roll String: 3d6

3 6-Sided Dice: (2, 6, 4) = 12

-3 from RC's runesmith results in a roll of 14, more than enough to cast any spell from the Lore of Ruin.

I cast Crack's Call, creating a crack in the earth running north-south. From now on, anyone crossing the midsection of the board needs to roll a dexterity save or fall to their doom.

Fine, here.



Even with RC's -3, a 6 is just barely enough to cast Crack's Call, though I wouldn't be able to cast some of the higher-tier spells with a low roll like that. Fortunately I aimed for a mid-tier spell this time.

do I have to create a character sheet

yes, but the only box you're required to fill out is the backstory
