Due to running Out of the Abyss as my first adventure and not getting any feedback on my post about other peoples experiences with it I am going to go ahead and assume no one else has run this campaign, sooooo just in case anyone decides to pick it up I thought I'd preemptively make a list of resources I have found on here so they have it if they come looking for help!
I will update this with new stuff as I find it.
A Guide to out of the Abyss - Has an actual walkthrough with the useful information from the adventure so you don't get overwhelmed. Also has an example of how you could run the 'random' underdark encounters.
It also has links on the page to:
John Bards DMs Kit - Has character cards and tokens and images you can use to show what the area looks like. It also has/had (seems to have been removed from the Dms guild download) a Out of the Abyss specific themed character sheet so I have uploaded it below.
Character_Sheet_-_Rage_of_Demons_Fillable_9....pdf (809.75 KB)
Pictures from the D&D Facebook page pictures from the adventure that you can print off.
Other stuff I found included:
Some resources suggestions from the paizo forums I specifically liked the excel file here for tracking exhaustion, madness etc. I personally added carry weight to mine too and a moon cycle. There is also lots of quick access info on the NPC's in this list which is super helpful as there are ALOT of them.
Underdark Dungeon Ambient Music Mixer - Just an option for background music.
Initiative cards - Fill them with juicy NPC goodness.
Running Out of the Abyss - More tips on how to run the game.
Badass Drow Picture - it is what it is.
Rage of Demons Wiki? - Clarified some info on what certain items do, haven't used it much beyond that. Some basic character info.
Hard Codex - Useful to look up specific monster info to easily print out instead of rummaging through the monster manual and lots and lots of lovely spell cards to print.
Stuff from this forum/ the podcasts:
Episode 28 - Beholder and Spider info
Episode 46 - Underdark Specfic Episode
And -
I hope this helps someone!
