Had an odd situation come up in a recent session.
I play a divination wizard and used a low portent to make a demon fail a save to resist our cleric’s banishment spell. The DM then revealed that the evil mage who summoned the demon was also a diviner and would use a portent to have the demon make the save.
Our table decided it was best to treat it as something imposing advantage and disadvantage to a roll, call it a wash and let the roll proceed as normal.
One person suggested the two wizards do a INT contest with the winner getting his portent to stick and the loser being out a portent.
Another person suggested taking the two portent numbers and using the average.
Still another suggested my portent stick since I called it first.
I was satisfied with calling it a wash but I’m curious what other DMs would do in this situation.
