    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    blue glowing spots are secret doors. traps are mentioned in the room text in the book, not on the maps. As for helpful NPCs? Put one in if you want to. Otherwise the closest ones to the entrance are probably the Garrison members in Region E.

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    There are captives to be rescued, and I might have other creatures who are trying to get out of the dungeon be made aware of the partys assault on the giants (after all they havent exactly been quiet about it). Hopefully that should complicate things jsut a little. :devil: I do want them to...

    Region O This is turning out to be a bit anti-climatic for me. In 2 sessions the party has cut down WinterWolves, the Megaraptor and Korwynne the Frost Giant, then 1 Cryohydra and several more Frost Giants without taking any damage (well, only a few against the temp hitpoint gleaned from False...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    in preparation for Region O I have produced a DM map (credit to Hussar for the original layout). This will most likely be the last map I'll produce as one way or another I expect the party to exit the dungeon (either via the reset switch in the tomb or fighting through O).

    Scratch one World Eater The party were considering pulling out, but I let the player of the dead dwarven eldritch knight play Vinnara as a cameo. With her incorporeal nature, ability to bypass natural armour, etc, she delivered enough damage to the WE along with the party fighter, and offered a...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    The party decided to rest (and level up) then head back in to the tomb and go for the World Eater (for the same reason). I had the NPC Cleric and rogue leave before they rested, heading back in to the tomb to find the NPC paladin. Egad the hatred shown to the paladin by a few of the other...

    Congrats! any tips or gotchas with the Frost Giants? My group is sitting at the Eastern door of the Tomb, yet to decide whether or not to go back in and take the World Eater, or try and find the exit to the north east.

    exit - stage right short session last night and missing some players but after having dealt with Kasteoficiss last session and finding her key the group decided to head back to Invistis, huddling inside an Anti-Magic shell to avoid all the nasty magical traps on the way. Now recall that...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    The party decided to have the mystic theurge go and report back to Vinnara on their progress. On her way there she noticed a lot of Dread Wraiths heading south in a hurry. Vinnara isn't too pleased that the party hasn't retrieved Kasteoficiss' key for her but she allows them to rest on the...

    I've been using RolePlayingMaster on my laptop and by plugging in to a TV or projector extend my desktop and put the player map there for the players. RPM has the DM map with a light shadow overlay that I can hide or reveal and when I refresh the player map the bits that are shadowed on the DM...

    HEY! no fair - tell us how the WE battle finished! :D

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    and then there were three the party had heard Kasteoficiss' proposition and, thinking that it sounded more reasonable than Vinnara's, headed north to tackle the Lich. I gave them another level - so they are now 15th. after resting they invoked a plan that had been discussed between sessions...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    remember that WoF require uninterrupted space. Having chains or even spiderwebs across the space will stop a WoF going up. The WE has DR that they might not automatically overcome. And remember that it has Power Attack. With its + to hit it could potentially knock off a character a round if it...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    I was under the impression that the major undead (Vinnara, Kasteficiss and Invistis) would fight the undead hordes leaving the party to tackle the World Eater. Trouble with a single massive opponent is that if the party can find a weakness they can end the fight ridiculously easily (like mine...

    perhaps I'll have them inscribed on the wall instead of looking like normal scrolls but what was their rationale for using/reading both? thanks for that - will definitely play up that angle if they get there.

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Party met Kasteoficiss last session. Essentially railroaded them there (at their request) where she gave them the offer of retrieving the 2 keys from Invistis in exchange for knowledge of the exit. She said she would escort them to the exit if they got all the levers pulled as well. And she...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    I'll wait for your post on this then Perhaps use dynamic terrain to make things interesting - the defeat of the World Eater shakes the structural integrity of the dungeon - freeing Tyrus, where the magical ice from his prison hits the lava and causes the entire Pyrefaust to be one big sauna -...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    what was their rationale behind reading both scrolls? how do you want the adventure to end? - do you want to wrap things up with the last battle, or have them find their way out of the tomb and get past the Frost Giants in Region O? how much (if anything) do they know about the World Eater?

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    :p I've started having structural damage occur as well - the collapse of the western door that the party came in through (thus trapping them inside the tomb), and now they make reflex saves when the negative energy wave comes through because the whole dungeon shakes. Nothing too serious but if...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    I don't recall seeing the interval anywhere. I suggested back in this thread about having the wave of negative energy roll through the entire dungeon well before the characters got to N, and I had the bodies of evil creatures killed by the characters rise up and move with the ebb wave, dropping...
