[QUOTE="Evaniel, post: 8764561, member: 7037705"] Hi, all. I'm starting a campaign soon that combines JTtRC with CM. The basic concept is that a Concord Jewel appeared near Candlekeep roughly a year or so ago, and in the ensuing time, they've begun an exchange program of sorts with the Citadel. The PCs would be Keepers, adventurers assigned to Candlekeep's outpost in the Citadel who are tasked with establishing relations with each of the founding realms and gathering lore. This is basically a conceit for me to run both campaigns concurrently. I have two broad categories of questions for folks: 1) While I'll probably keep some of the more lore-specific Candlekeep mysteries (such as Lore of Lurue) on Faerun, I'd like to set most of them in the assorted worlds of the Radiant Citadel. With some cosmetic/name changes, where would you set each Candlekeep Mystery? What issues do you see springing from such a change? What cool and unintended opportunities might spring from such a change? 2) Part of my desire to smash these two campaigns together is to draw it out and let the players spend time with these characters. We have a big group, though: 6 PCs. I worry about leveling and treasure. Should I go with Milestones and simply adjust the difficulty by adding more monsters to the combat encounters or should I just provide XP (and perhaps the occasional encounter-sized award for completing some of the more RP-oriented adventures)? Also, they'll likely have near twice the expected amount of treasure at a given level due to doing both campaigns: do you think a flat 10% tax whenever returning to the Citadel (they do tax the wealthy) would help ameliorate this at all? I think my players would be okay with it if I explain a bit of the rationale ahead of the game (again, they'd still come out ahead). That said, I'd interested in alterative takes/solutions. Thanks!
