Message: <blockquote data-quote="iserith" data-source="post: 6873575" data-attributes="member: 97077">Is the villain just sat in his tower waiting to be confronted? Or is he trying to accomplish something to further his goals? If the latter, then have it where the PCs turn up when he's near completion of his task and have an opportunity to set back his plans, even if they can't destroy him. Perhaps he's fashioning some kind of doomsday device or the like.If you have adequately telegraphed the need for them to acquire the heart to finally defeat the villain and they've failed to do anything about it, they should have to face the consequences of their decisions in my view. But there are more ways to fail than just dying (and those ways can often be worse than death), so I would suggest exploring that as an option rather than putting the heart in their path.</blockquote>
