[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 9274460, member: 1210"] The pcs are playing through L1: The Secret of Bone Hill. Last session ended in town, in the burned out guard house, exploring the secret level underneath the place in search of the giant rat that had previously bitten a local child. The pcs spent this session fighting undead and giant rats, as well as spending some time in town spending money (this is the group where I am using the 'ale and whores' xp system, in which you ONLY gain xp by spending money on frivolous things such as ale and whores- nothing that gives you anything, just burning it up). Most of them concentrated this on literal ale and whores, but one bought rooms for a bunch of travelers, and one bought a sauna session from the town's druids. A new pc joined this session, and the group got enough treasure that he made 2nd level and the rest of them hit 3rd. They then returned to the guard house and continued exploring it. They had exhausted most of the possibilities except for a cramped passage that stank of rat and had tons of droppings and rat tracks leading in and out, and the new guy- a forest gnome- used [I]minor illusion [/I]to duplicate the mating calls of a female rat. A massive wave of giant rats responded, resulting in the pcs fleeing for their lives until they could slam a door shut that the rats couldn't easily penetrate, then escape through a secret tunnel to the river's edge (still in town, but well-concealed).
