      A counter spell prevents other magic users from casting their spell. It can be used by a magic user to block a spell to various degrees of success. This DM didn’t use it with any villains in the campaign, except once, to block a resurrection in the final battle.

      He killed a guy’s charector, then basically re-killed him right after.

        He didn’t just re-kill him. He plastered over the stone that Jesus was trying to roll away. It’s brutal, and it’s what makes campaigns epic. If the last boss is a cake walk, then what’s the point. I hope the party survived and the barb is welcomed by their god.

      As far as I can tell the group was trying to bring the barbarian back to life. But the counterspell prevented it. So barbarian stayed dead
