I’m running a campaign based on Out of the Abyss with my table. Yesterday was the intro session, and I had to drop a load of names on the players.

I wanted to keep the BBEG characters memorable, so I made crappy sock puppets for three of the drow villains. Googly eyes and elf ears lazily glued to old dress socks.

As a human, I only have two hands, so I waited until everyone was busy setting up their gear at the table to sneak on a fresh “sock”. No one was ready when I popped my leg up on the table for the third-drow reveal, glaring down at the captive party from behind the prison bars.
