You are welcome 😊 ... not sure, if it is easely adaptable for DSA ... it is perhaps a little to OP 😁 perhaps as a weapon for a high level end boss, who has a pact with Asfaloth or perhaps Blakharaz ( a Heshthot which is the only demon using a whip, belongs also to Blakharaz demons ) 😉

Thank you , indeed, especially present in the novels of R.A.Salvatore ... in die Drizzt novels and also in the "War of the Spider Queen" novels ... but it is difficult to find in the rule books

@TheBard Wow! You knwo DSA well. I guess you are also playing it, and are maybe even from a German speaking area. I agree it would only be for a igh level end boss. Someone with a pack with like Blakharaz would fit, well. I think it would fit for an evil witch, since they have a speel to turn their arms into snakes. And for such a weapeon a pact would be nesseacary. I also though about giving it to a Nachtalb (Nightelf) who is a priest of the Nameless god. In that case not with snakes, but with rats. However, I am not so sure about the rat thing 😅

@TheBard Cool, thanks for sharing. I still have not read R.A.Salvatore novels 😢. I also do not play DnD itself, I play the German "The Dark Eye (TDE)" ("Das Schwarze Auge" (DSA)). It is very similar. This is great inspiration. I did not know about the "scourge of fangs/whip of fangs" before. At it is something can be easly addedpet to TDE. Thank you for sharing 🙏
