[QUOTE="gideonpepys, post: 6145166, member: 79141"] [b]Session 77a - Additional DM's Note[/b] Haven't got round to writing up the rest of the report yet, but forgot to highlight something in the last report: One of the things I've noticed recently about my group as that they like each others' characters so much, they seem to be happy to sit back and watch a whole episode unfold surrounding a single character. Many months ago, Uru went on a little solo adventure to find some 'milk spider eggs'. The player was supposed to turn up early so we could run this side-quest without the others getting bored, but the others happened to turn up early too, and got quite into observing his wee stealth mission. Then, when Rumdoom went up against Sly & the Family Stone during [I]Always on Time[/I], the group was on tenterhooks to see how things turned out, and gave a huge cheer when (to everyone's surprise, including mine) he beat the whole encounter by himself. Knowing that they are prepared to give 30-40 mins over to one player freed me up a bit when planning the downtime sessions and, although I'm not going to present every player with such an opportunity, I've come up with at least two. This week was the turn of Matunaaga. Roshna and Tosin were two level 9 opponents, and Matunaaga is level 9 too. But the dice really did go his way - I rarely rolled above a 10 - and he came out the other side almost unscathed. This made him look pretty cool, it has to be said, and fit quite nicely with his development as a 'living weapon'. One of the other players said, "It's good to be reminded every once in a while that we're not first level any more." I had all kinds of interesting things planned in case he got beat, but it was balanced so that he had a good chance of coming out on top. Acing it in the way he did means that word of his prowess will return to the Anthras Mountains and influence events in the months to come in ways I haven't yet foreseen. [/QUOTE]
