Hydras D&D | Let's Build an Encounter | D&D Quest Ideas

Hydras are easily one of the coolest monsters in Dungeons and Dragons, both visually and mechanically. It can instantly take any D&D quest or side quest and turn it up to eleven, and it actually has cooler lore than I originally would have thought.

So today we're going to create a hydra encounter you can steal, modify, and plop directly into your D&D campaigns.

The encounter created in this video uses D&D 5e stats but can be easily altered in order to suit any Dungeons and Dragons game, no matter what edition you prefer.

**Disclaimer: Note that I cannot plan for every single outcome in these videos or they would become multiple hours long. Also, a player's actions can heavily affect the outcome of any encounter. If encounters don't pan out exactly as I've described, remember - that's okay. Uncertainty and the power of actions are what make D&D so great!
