[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 5283466, member: 87792"] I wasn't being metaphorical. Last session, in the War of the Burning Sky campaign I'm running, the PCs decided that white water rafting using home made rafts to leave the Burning Forest over a waterfall rather than travel to the heart of it as the module wants is the best option. This despite one of the PCs having become a flaming zombie himself (and therefore being violently allergic to water). It's their decision for good and ill - so I'm going to run with it. Still, that leaves me planning the climactic encounter. White water rafting on home made rafts down a 40' wide river towards a waterfall while, on either side, the forest blazes without being consumed. Trying to stop them are a small demon (vicious little bugger, level 8 elite lurker) who wants a box they are carrying, and something that in a very real way [I]is[/I] the Burning Forest and is annoyed they are trying to leave (he can't be present in person - but can create fire curtains for them to raft through). And various allies both of them can bring - but most of those allies are already on fire and take half damage - unless plunged into water (which is precisely why they are rafting). It's an ... awesome premise. Awesome enough I'm scared of completely screwing it up. Any advice anyone can give please? [/QUOTE]
