They're actually around 12th level right now- so it shouldn't really be an issue. Although, as a bit of a more interesting hook, I decided to have a little mini-adventure first... the PCs are approached by an elf named Svrd Coppermoon (a variation of a name mentioned in one of the possible plot hooks of the adventures) wanting the PCs to go retrieve a magical item for him. He tells them about it, tells them that it's supposedly some cursed item that he was interested in studying... and then the PCs find out it's in the possession of a dragon. So they go fight the dragon, get the item, and return it to the guy, at which point he takes it, and skips out of town without paying them. At least, that's how I was hoping it would turn out, because then the PCs would have to try and find out where this guy went, and after a year or so (of downtime, that is) they find out that a shady character was last seen heading off into some remote woods in the middle of nowhere.However, as all of you know, PCs almost never do what you want them to do. As soon as they got this item (which turned out to be Gnarlpaw's Fang, of course) they immediately went and had a million people try and identify it before returning it to this guy. I told them that it was an artifact, but I couldn't very well tell them exactly what it did- or it would ruin the entire next adventure. So I told them that it was one of many artifacts created by a group of wizards several hundred uears previous... and this particular one was designed by a wizard with a particular interest in transformations. They probably got the impression I didn't want to tell them what it did, they agreed to give it to the guy... but they said they weren't going to deliver it to him until he paid them. So he sent a messenger to pay them, and next thing they knew, he had his artifact and he was gone.So I'm gonna have to come up with another hook for them once we actually start the adventure. But I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.Anyway, how long did the adventure take when you ran it? Any suggestions for me?</blockquote>
