[QUOTE="ObsidianCrane, post: 4429511, member: 54918"] I gave him the Demagogue Template, and swapped the escape ability for a the ability to teleport to his lair with anything he is carrying. Then just doubled the number of brides he has (so you get 2 encoutners with Brides). For the Spirit Naga I used a reskinned banshee with some reskinned Fire bats as 'Ghost Bats", and for the Baboon Mob, I simply turned the Kobold Horde from Dragon 364 into a level 8 Elite and left it at that (was still a fun fight). As I started from the Gargoyle attacks this is as far through the module as they have made it (the Spirit Naga fled and they didn't chase it.) (The Gargoyle Boss I gave the Warlord Template to, and I added Galeb-Duhr to the 2nd encounter to mix it up.) For the person worried about the lack of Profession Sailor, there are two paths basically - forget rolling and go with good narative, or turn it into a skill challenge. Perception for Navigation, Nature for Tides/Currents/Weather, and Athletics for ship handling, Insight and Acrobatics are fairly obvious fall backs and Endurance checks can be made all around to see if anyone gets sea sick. Other modules I'm working on are Rahasia (classic Basic BECMI module), The Distraction (Dungeon 145), Stormdancers (Dungeon 86), and Pools of Radiance (the 2E module). I will eventually convert Rana Mor (Dungeon 86), and the Desert of Desolation modules as well I think along with a few other things along the way. With the way time is going I'm probably going to end up running games on the Game Table if it ever gets working, otherwise I'm going to have a lot of ideas that never go anywhere. [/QUOTE]
