[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 3943794, member: 1210"] Okay, so after considerable discussion with various of the players, I think the party's next big deals are: 1. Install Thrush as the new Forinthian emperor 2. Install Wankerman as the new Strogassian emperor 3. Kick Bile Mountain's ass So, two very different types of adventures. I suspect the Bile Mountain part is what will have the biggest amount of prep time (and combat!) involved. So as far as that goes, we've had Bile Mountain... Return to Bile Mountain... and Revenge on Bile Mountain. Next: [i]Beyond Bile Mountain[/i], which I'm thinking will deal with the expansion of the Demiplane of Bile, the creation of the Sea of Guts and the "inversion" of a major island into the bile demesnes (unless the heroes can stop the King of Bile and Queen of Guts from carrying out their plans, of course!). My goals for BBM will be (as always) to show the players a good time while seriously challenging their characters. Also, to make this journey through Bile Mountain distinctly different and an appropriate (at least!) challenge for these guys edging into the 30's for their level, without breaking the world assumptions of Cydra. This is a big part of the reasoning behind my "inversion" plot idea- that opens up a lot of room to use gnarly big bad monsters of various bile-related natures without creating an environment that contradicts established Cydran lore. More to come... the BBM stuff is already in development, but I haven't done any significant work on the political threads yet. Who does Thrush need to talk to? What about Wankerman? How likely are these epic heroes, neither of whom yet has an army, to succeed at their mad goals? Who will oppose them? Who wll support them? Much to think about. [/QUOTE]
