Cut to the Chase: DMing Pursuit

FInd out what 5E gets wrong in their chase rules.
 
Crumbling James and Professional Dungeon Master Justin G talk Chase scenes.
It’s easy for chase scenes to be boring and fall flat. They can quickly devolve into mindless dice rolling at best and comparing stats at worst. Where is the fun in that?
Justin G brings his experience to bear to help you create memorable, exciting, and dynamic chase scenes. This will be a great too in any GMs toolbox.

Fantasy is hardly an escape from reality; it's a way of understanding it

Digging in the Sand

Bones. So many bones. How many people have been buried here?

You find a rusty long sword and a small, golden vulture head worth 250 gp.

Red Sand

The sand here on the edge of the sacrificial ground is loose and looks recently churned.

What happens if I dig under it?

Vulture Priest

The Vulture Priests are the enemy of knowledge and enlightenment. They seek to bring the eternal silence, the end of all things. Decay and obedience is their only god.

Immune to the Divine: The spells and powers of clerics and paladins have no effect on them.
Weapons: They frequently use wickedly curved daggers, which they use for sacrificial purposes.
Soul Clouders: There is a 10% chance that any Vulture Priest can use the sleep spell once per day. The targets are still awake, but they are beset by such a deep depression that it has the same effect as sleep. They may only watch what unfurls around them.
