[QUOTE="Archade, post: 2602349, member: 7654"] Hiya guys! Thanks for the replies! 1) The characters have made knowledge checks to identify the critters as werehyenas (gnoll werehyenas -- very subtle changes in hybrid form!), and that they're evil. That's all they know. As experienced players they know they need a 12th level cleric to cure him -- however, the characters are blithely stumbling along, hoping they don't have to lock up the barbarian in a cage. 2) Yes, the beast within is a great play on the Rashemi barbarian. I kind of hope he fails his DC 15 Fortitude save and contracts the disease, just because it would be interesting. 3) I don't think that BoED alignment conversion stuff is going to work on a supernatural disease that causes a change in alignment. Too easy. 4) I'd like to think I'm being fair in thinking that their characters have heard of a Helm of Opposite Alignment. My general gist on magical stuff is that anything out of the DMG is at least hearsay to the characters -- sure, you've heard of a robe of the archmagi -- can't find one for sale, but you've heard of one. I'm thinking a DC 15-25 Gather Information check will let them find a cursed item, as they aren't exactly marketable items. But what do you guys think of the helm of opposite alignment idea?
