    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] The Continuing Adventures of Korrigan & Co.

    Continuing the theme, would you mind sharing a single converted character? Just to see what is Cypher's analogue to early-paragon tier character in your opinion. Particulary relevant to me, because my own campaign stopped at exactly the same moment (and I'll probably show this character...

    ZEITGEIST How can I make Zeitgeist lighter / faster?

    If I may hijack this thread for a specific question... My own campaing is in ongoing two-year break, partly due to the same problem of 4e being quite slow, especially in complex battle encounters. I glanced through Cypher System and I'm liking what I see, but how do you enforce the limit on a...

    Railroad Challenge

    IMHO Lya's attitude should mirror your own point of view on this challenge. If you're bored with it, she should be as well. She will feign some activity, her subordinates will sabotage PCs, but she'll be planning from the beginning to capture Oddcog at his presentation to the party (i.e. with...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST 5E

    In my headcanon, "Lanjyr" was the original name of the continent before you-know-what happened, giving birth to Yerasol archipelago. This places Risur and Ber on Southern Lanjyr and Crisillyir with Drakr at Northern Lanjyr. Elfaivar is located on separate continent, perhaps joined with the land...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST 5E

    I really hope that this will help with Zeitgeitst publicity. For worse or for good, WotC abandoned 4e to die, and not having this AP in the latest edition hurts it a lot.

    Saxby on the lamb

    She is not mentioned anywhere else for the adventure. Thinking logically, she's likely to hide somewhere in the northern Lanjyr; Danor may be a bad place for former RHC Inspector, but at least you're unlikely to be found by magic in the dead zone that is. But she likely has an hour of head start...

    Weakened Avilona: Why? [contains spoilers, nuts]

    BTW, just to completely derail this topic: anyone has some canon or fanon reason for Green Knight of Risur to be absent during Adventure 1 of Zeitgeist? That's pretty careless for the appointed king's bodyguard.

    Weakened Avilona: Why? [contains spoilers, nuts]

    I've just received a notification about PF version being added, it's in my subscription. 4E compilation AFAIK is not ready yet.

    Personal Ties to the Story for my PCs

    Check adventure 7 and Beshela's story about the king, his sister, a kraken and a certain Danoral vessel. Basically, his most well-known war explot is credit to a mer fey power (of course, it may as well be just a fey boast). Also, if reading between the lines... Do you know that your king was...

    I just finished the final adventure

    Actually, I second this question, what's next? Also, I love you for mentioning the possibility of suplexing the train.

    [MINOR SPOILERS] errata question for item found in adventure two

    As far as I understand, magic item economy and enchancement bonus progression are vastly different between two systems

    [MINOR SPOILERS] errata question for item found in adventure two

    In the original adventure it's only referred to as +2, just checked. Perhaps, +1 is some left-over from PF version. +3 definitely sounds OP for both the party and Recklinghausen himself. EDIT: also, von_recklinghausen seems to use PF item value, while we're talking about 4e... right?

    ZEITGEIST Requisitioning gear in a potential 5e conversion for ZEITGEIST?

    In my 4e experience, requisition system stopped working around the end of adventure 3 due to extreme Diplomacy score of more than one player. That 50 men police force in adventure 5? They could have summoned it by themselves with almost 100% success. I'm not sure how optimized can Charisma check...

    ZEITGEIST Question about starting Zeitgeist

    IMHO Leone has very little reasoning to leave Bleak Gate side of Flint. What's the position of Carlao's team in your canon? Are they as corrupt as Saxby or just misinformed? If you want to reinforce "corrupt cop" stereotype, then Saxby and team A are to meet Lorcan Kell, likely in some catacombs...

    Working out kinks in the final adventure

    I actually have very limited GMing experience, Zeitgeist is my first full-scale campaign, but even in my experience, there's no such thing as nova-proof enemy (we kinda finished adventure 5, currently in hiatus). And that's 20 levels before this fight you're planning here. I really hope that...

    Working out kinks in the final adventure

    Just chiming in: in 4e there's that ritual called Fastastic Recuperation, which basically allows you to get an extended rest in 1 hour. Broken enough, but remember that you inserted that fastastic witch cauldron magic item in adventure 2, which allows to cast any ritual as a standard action once...

    ZEITGEIST Question about starting Zeitgeist

    First of all, both the ritual at the subway and the kill squad for Lady Saxby will trigger at 6pm (? don't remember the exact time) whether Xambria is in HQ or not. Sidjen knows that, but your party is extremely unlikely to deduce that without your intent. Second, Sidjen doesn't particularly...

    Prepping for the hardcover compilation - errors, edits, and suggestions?

    I'm all for as much lore as you're comfortable writing. In particular, ambiguous Kelland's Rites of Rulership and centuries of interactions with Unseen Court and fey titans are just begging for details. In my headcanon, Rites are purposedly obfuscated, but ingrained in the fabric of nature (at...

    [WOIN] Future Core is very imminent...

    That's my first impression, NEW seems pretty easy for conversions. Still, plot hooks help... Actually, the strangest question, where can I find that WOIN conversion for Santiago#1? I have it downloaded on my iPad since ???, but I can't find it on the official site or at the forums. Was it in...
