This is true. Subtle differences are inescapable. On the other hand, I'm not sure there's any reason to have a really giant unavoidable rainforest there on the map that has never appeared in any adventure or backstory (at least I think it hasn't, so definitely correct me if I'm wrong!). I...

(OOC: Lasair realised that it was moronic to stay in the same place where the enemy knows where it is. Since the other baddies ran away, they won't be able to find us if we move him to another random place, preferably not visible from any skulkyish hiding places. Of course, thanks to the...

(OOC: At a quick glance, the just-appeared rainforest's location would make two of my three characters' backstories and two of my adventures really really messed up. I'd rather it not be there. I do, however, like the sleek new style of the new map--the art looks nice!)

*As far as he can tell, it's just a button. If he presses it, it will do something. There are no obvious connections to cause any immediate effect in this room that he can notice. This is probably a good sign, since any trap would generally have to affect this room or else it wouldn't be much...

(OOC: Just a sec--the ogre is probably hustling, so a speed of 60 feet per round. If it was sprinting, it would cover 120, but it would become exhausted and collapse within minutes. This should give Siobhan 5 rounds to prepare, so she'll cast all her buff spells on Stulgar. Then, of course...

"Hmm...I see," Alicia ponders, "Wait a minute, I remember a story about a porpoise...sometimes this bardic knowledge comes in handy! Is it true that a porpoise can broadcast messages at great distances in an extremely short time? Even if it vanished after a few moments? I'm not sure how that...

"By the Nine Hells! What do you mean you don't have it? Who has it? Zarindas? That bastard!" (OOC: Zarindas, for those on IA who forget, is your patron's name. Irene one would think, may not have heard that name before)

The OP mentions Unseen Seer vis-a-vis Arcane Trickster. The trouble in the comparison is, of course, that Unseen Seer requires only 1 level of non-caster to enter. But the coup de grace for Unseen Seer is that you can then qualify for Arcane Trickster off of Unseen Seer and get all 10 levels...

*Zack is able to make it to the Wendigo, but he cannot attack yet. Wolf Ducane decides to attack the Wendigo, and he bites into it rather viciously, tripping it onto the ground with a loud grunt. Enraged, the beast is no longer laughing now. Michael's slingstone glances off one of the...

*The water is mostly empty and stretches out in all directions. There seem to be occasional pieces of...stuff, pockets of other material that found their way into the Plane of Water, but mainly water everywhere. It is not completely dark, however. The water is illuminated very faintly by a...

"Yes, I'd imagine so. But there's no way to tell what it might do."

"Well, remember that this location was also marked as the same colour green when we were at the last place, but on this map it isn't. But it certainly could be a beacon," Elektra says before muttering off a Detect Magic cantrip, "Looks like a minor aura of Universal...so...it can't do anything...

(OOC: I'm okay with rounding the adventure up. If there is a chance or a choice and we wind up finding the other half, Aletheia is not inclined to bring it back to the Guardian just in case the "Guardian" actually *is* an evil thing trapped in there as well that would break free with the...

*Siobhan bows deeply, her face touching the soil that nurtured this ancient oak and sustained its fey caretaker. Then she rises to address the dryad.* "My Lady Ivalia, daughter of the oaks and beloved of Balinor, we come to you as humble petitioners. Know that our only connection to this...

"Right, sounds like a plan. That's pretty far away, but at least it should be a simple enough journey to perform. What do you think that green crystal is, though? There wasn't one of those in the last place. It looks like a button. A trap, maybe? A switch? Is there any good way to tell?"

(OOC: Lyrual was, of course, the name of the clan avoided to reach this place in the original puzzle) *There do not seem to be any traps in the area. Simply the blank wall and the button. As Rinaldo approaches the wall to search for traps, the big map from before appears again, but this time...

*Corvinus and Babette's words come out a bit garbled by the intervening water, but the water proves a good medium to carry the sound, so they can hear each other well enough. The group presses forward for a short while, but unfortunately, the forced swimming march is enough to tire them out...

"Thank you for your aid. We shall follow you to speak with Mistresses Ivalia and Thorn," *Siobhan shakes her brother awake, figuring Lily will handle Raven. If the magic proves too strong for this, she shouts at him, slaps him, then sprinkles water from her skin on his face. Once the group...

"Ancient?...No, I do not know exactly what this is..." 'Perhaps it is an aberrant taint like the one we encountered before...' "But...we have not the time to sleep right now, little one. Otherwise, by the time we wake up, the ogre will be long gone, and we will not be able to stop him from...

(OOC: Oh, and with 11 and 6, Stulgar fails both quite miserably. Hmm, I didn't remember this, but apparently even if I had failed the save for Siobhan, she gets a reroll on the next round. Wow, if she didn't respect the fey so much, she'd be awesome at killing them :])
