I've done two side stories with my players which have generally been well received. The first was back in adventure 7 and the some people wanted to go back into the ruined Cauldron hill facility suspecting there was still some problems there. I used some hags, undead and some which oil golems...

My group is nearing adventure 11 and I've been putting a lot of thought into how to do the Gyre bit. I'm not sure that doing it as written is going to be great for my table - the back and forth transitioning may leave one of my players confused and make focusing difficult. One way I've been...

I'm trying to figure this one out and I don't see it thoroughly explained in adventure 10 that is coherent with the rest of the narrative. Adventure 10 informs us that Jiesse was once part of the elemental plane of fire, but the Ancients found a way to essentially cut it off from the plane of...

I put a small rumor in my game about a former dragon tyrant ruling the slaver colony in Elfaivar.

So, I just had to share this. The Logos in my party has used this ability to... tremendous success throughout the campaign. During adventure 6, during the train building he used the ability to help his side win; conveniently, it turned out, they always found a random shack just out of view...

Are you planning on having the king die in the first adventure? The first adventure really does a great job spearheading the main plot and has connections further down. Im in the camp thinking you may want to let your players create their characters. And absolutely don't use the Bonds of Forced...

Not entirely. I think that they are beginning to realize that a lot of players want versatility. Many players play their 'Sorcadins' and whatnot because they like having the blend; it's a very popular trope and is thematically cool. Warlocks and Hexblades are played by a lot of people because of...

I have not ran this in 5th edition. But I have a good grasp on the system. If I recall, this starts the PC's at 3rd level, and theyve had one combat before this, possibly a second one. You can absolutely add magma mephits to the encounter. For a first session, this will seem like a "boss"...

Oh, I have arguments for the candidate, and had I not then I would haven't implemented the restrictions, either. The restrictions are meant to go two-ways: to make some players who haven't played as well not feel like they didn't do their best, and keeps certain narrative threads and character...

I'm running it in 5th edition, and have been hand converting it all. Nicodemus was a monster. Theres some slight power gaming in some case, but buffed up he had 500hp and 27 AC. The players were freaking out but pulled through with some brilliant play and manueveriing

My party just finished adventure 8. That final encounter was a tremendous amount of fun. I decided to make it more engaging for my players - take a look!

I can't recall exactly where I came up with it, or where it comes from if it's in the books. I won't let any Deva become King - from the earliest days, Stanfield wasn't allowed to wear the crown for this very reason. Is immortality somehow prevented his kingship. Second, somewhere, I think...

I took the list from Adventure 11, and ascribed names to them all. Only one of my characters had any religious background, so their relative silence in the world worked pretty well for me as a DM who really didn't want to dig too deep into it.

Sorry to hear it didn't go so well. My group - sort of the same deal as yours, actually - never finished BoFF. It's a pretty challenging module to run, looking back at it, it requires a lot more normal DM work than usual for Zeitgeist. That said, I hope it's enough to spark interest in things...

Okay, I definitely didn't pick up on Heids weird teleportation trick in the letter until you mentioned it. I find that pretty amusing, but it still doesn't say much about any significance of the box itself

Reading into the last book there is a small section about The Titan Box. Everything about it makes it seem more important than it is. It's kept in Drakr for some reason, and has engravings of all the Fey Titans on it. It is delivered in a way that makes it seem like strings had to be pulled. Its...

Indeed, I did forget about the train ride to Bole. There's a lot to keep in mind with this world, lol.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I don't think Flint has any trains going out of the city? The subway system in the city is just now being completed in adventure 5. You may have done things differently, and really, it's a solid idea save for now Borne can throw a train at the party. Being on land - and...

There is definitely something particular about belief in Zeitgeist. There may actually be no gods within the world and there may never actually have been, but what and how people believe is incredibly important to Zeitgeist. The leader in Vigil Longis - a godhand - is able to conjure an angel...

Yeah, I restricted my players from being able to select anything but Fey Pact. After Ashima-shimtu, Fiend Pact opens up. But, Im already seeing ways I could have allowed that. And, I love the Hexblade pact based off Srasama.
