I gave up on the bard character's plotline (i was trying to do something like Mass Effect 2 where there was a main plot but everybody got a personal story as well) after the party just walked on by the third murdered musician in town. It was going to be a monkey's paw wish gone wrong where somebody wished to be the best musician around and that caused a super fan of the wisher to start murdering people so that the wisher was the only musician around (but still sucked at playing) and therefore technically the best around. I would have had the fan directly come after the bard next ala panel 4 but the bard player and the druid player broke up and the group dissolved.

If the players ignore your Threat, follow through with the Threat.

If the players continue to ignore the Consequences of the Threat, admit you're now running a different game than you planned and adapt, brutally following through on the Consequences to every conclusion you can find

I miss diving headfirst into every single plot hook laid out in front of me. Often a bit.. Too energetically.

Stuck running a 3 month campaign from April because my players wanna fuck around waterdeep too much.

Do the dragon heist god damnit! You have had the stone and eyes for 4 sessions now! It was stolen once and Manshoon has someone's family hostage, just get the gold already!! Fuck!!

Jokes sorta, can't be mad they don't wanna stop playing

My players ignored the lore so much that now that they are lv 17 they had to find it to be able to fight the BBEG, so I dropped like a 5 page handout. Good luck
