Had a great time, due to the limits of short one shot play I wanted to make threats interesting and reskinned the Minor Demon into a being of shadow and crystallized blood as their first encounter.From that I can confirm that solo-solos aren’t going to threaten a group of even 3 with loss/failure, but do make an interesting “elite” style single monster with fun mechanics + moderate tension. I didn’t always remember to trigger the Demon’s “drain a hope away when the players fail with fear” but when I did it felt great. Always fun when mechanics & theme align like that.That group had already been playing 1 shots of DH together (in fact one of the players is who ran the demo scenario for the rest of us a couple months back), and we’ve agreed we’re going to switch to this next. They seemed pretty enthused with the rough sketch of the modern urban fantasy framework I’ve done so far so we’ll give that a shot!</blockquote>
