[QUOTE="Bill T., post: 6914902, member: 6795693"] Yes, yes, and yes! This encounter is intended as a reward -- I have been thinking something along the lines of your option A, like scouts and engineers preparing to get an army through the swamps. Option B hadn't occurred to me at all, but it's a great idea. Assuming the heroes are smart enough not to wipe the scouts out, one of them could tell the heroes that a devil had visited. I'd like to be able to tell them that they hoped to capture Balan, but I'm not sure why they'd mention that. Whether the adventure is at sea or in the swamps is up to the players -- at the moment, they're favoring travelling through the swamps to get to Dassen. A ship with a Ragesian letter of marque would be a cool twist, though, especially since there are likely several beat-up Shahalesti ships with undoubtedly disloyal elf wizards aboard. Oh, your question about the party's "relationship" to Katrina is a bit ironic: One of the PCs decided she was Katrina's sister. (Another decided he had merc'd with her before Coaltongue died -- and still has nightmares from it -- but that seems less relevant.) That's going to put me in a bind when Katrina finally has to decide where her loyalties are, but I figured I should embrace the challenge that the familial relationship provides. Great ideas for me to ponder. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
