[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9816604, member: 54629"] [USER=7113]@greymist[/USER]: My computer is currently out of action unfortunately but I can share my notes once I get it up and running again. Something else I remembered: I didn’t want the PCs having to go back and forth between the Eye of the All-Father and the various Uthgardt sites, so when the PCs met Harshnag, I had him tell them to gather some giant relics as tribute for the oracle and then meet him at the Eye. I also made it so their Lords’ Alliance contact sent them a message telling them to meet Harshnag outside Longsaddle. When they got to the nearby Uthgardt mound, the Cult of the Dragon agents with their airship were waiting for the PCs. When they were flying to another spot, I had them encounter Felgolos, who was flying on his back and almost crashed into the airship. I can’t remember if they ended up going to the cloud giants’ castle, though. So the PCs collected some giant relics and then went to the Eye once. Iymrith attacked and as they were leaving, and Harshnag stayed to fight her. Later, when they visited Maelstrom, they decided they wanted to find one of the other scepters that can control the Wyrmskull Throne, so I sent them to that stone giant library in the Underdark (see Out of the Abyss), where they learned that one was in the Xanathar’s possession. They went off to Waterdeep and infiltrated the Xanathar’s lair and claimed the scepter, then returned to Maelstrom to free the sister trapped on the throne. Since I can’t access my notes right now, I would reiterate that you have a look through my session recaps. You’ll get the gist of the changes I made through those, if not the nitty-gritty bits and any mechanical changes. (I wish the rules for mythic creatures had existed when I ran this. I totally would have used them for Iymrith.) Suffice it to say, I would happily run this adventure again. [/QUOTE]
