I've started the process of asking my players how they want to handle things. There's a number of questions I want answered, mainly about how they feel, and what they want to do going forward... Do we continue the game right away, or wait another week or two before resuming? How would they...

No game this week as our gaming group suffered a pretty heavy loss. Only about an hour before game time, I learned that one of my players passed away. Everyone was pretty shook about it, so we called things off this week. Now, I'm trying to decide whether to simply have his character fade...

I realize I didn't update from last week... The fight took up most of the episode, as everyone seemed very keen on stopping Kazyk before anything else. With all the attention upon him, the devil wasn't able to fend off enough of the party's attacks, and was ultimately dispelled by a stray...

I like the "help clear out the safe house" idea... the party could be sent in to simply deal with a vermin infestation, but those who aren't directly related to the Resistance, might be curious about the fact that they're being vetted so heavily for a simple extermination operation, or that...

Right. In the case of running #2 or #3, I would preface it by saying that the one-shot is more of a "flavor + lore" event, to give the players some sense of the world the campaign is happening within, and that the actual events of the world would probably differ from how THEY played it out...

That was when Dassen sought the aid of Seaquen to deal with a wind mage that was stirring up trouble, and Seaquen rejected them. To that end, it could be a Dasseni group sent to negotiate (or force) Lsi Pu to stop his shenanigans... a success could lead to him consenting to stop; failure could...

Based on a comment that @thom_likes_gaming had in another thread, are there any prequels or lead-ins to the WotBS sdventure path proper, or does anyone have thoughts about what might happen in such a module? It could serve to introduce some of the initial lore of the world, and gauge interest...

Here's my thoughts on those two...

In the latest session, the party, now armed with all the information they THINK they need to get out of the forest, go back and forth over how they intend to stop the fire spirit of Innenotdar. After spending the night in a cramped cave, the wild mage barbarian gets a bizarre, semi-shared dream...

I don't know of anything in particular, but I could easily see a "pregame" adventure taking characters through levels 1 and 2, focusing on the state of Gate Pass in the month or so leading up to Ragesia's invasion. You could take the time to introduce characters and concepts the heroes could...

The party has pretty openly stated that they wanted to free the Seela from their curse by STOPPING Indomitability, not FREEING him, so Vuhl has changed his tactics to set the Seela against the party (or at least distrust them). The rebels that tried to stop Tiljann are already ill-inclined...

A few questions... 1. When the party returns to the Seela Village at night, how do you think them staying the night would be recieved? Tiljann, at least, would vouch for them, and Papuvin might allow a few of them to stay in his cave on Tiljann's word, but there isn't sufficient room for all...

In our latest challenge, the party was able to fend off a pair of Dream Elementals, even while one among their numbers had the boon of Indomitability REVOKED for confronting him in the dream realm, and refusing to follow his demands blindly. Saved rather quickly by one of the group's...

I think either the Barbarian or Hexblade would find the Living Blade useful (likely transmuting it into a greataxe or polearm, respectively), while the Rogue or Ranger could conceivably turn it into a bow of some kind.

So, after our party learned a bit about the Song of Forms, they got into a fairly lively (and sometimes heated) debate about what to do regarding Indomitability, and the Seela to the south, some saying that the devil Kazyk actually had some good points... Eventually reaching the Seela village...

Two endgame questions, possibly connected... 1. Why won't Khor-El-Jiese, the Flamebringer Dragon, reply to any attempt to contact it? Is it unable or unwilling to respond, or both? Is it "dead" like Jhial-el-Avilona, or simply bound in a way that separates it from the material world as a whole...
