[QUOTE="Flexor the Mighty!, post: 7074647, member: 1013"] Where we are at. The party just finished up the Mantol-Derith part of the campaign. So far not too but but there are elements I hate, such as the army of NPC they keep trying to saddle the party with. I have a party of 6 and adding more NPC to run just made things slower and the initial group didn't last long outside the interesting ones, Stool and Shuushar But poor little Stool bought it on the Darklake and nutty Shuushar stayed behind in Neverlight Grove. They may run into them again though, they "replanted " part of Stool. Anyway the horde coming with them after the mid campaign interlude in Gauntlegrym was ditched for a single Zhent to get them into Mantol, but she is staying behind to rebuilt the Zhent outpost after the PC largely destroyed it battling the insane gem holding Beholder. Now I have the 60 day slog to Gravenhallow to run. They can't teleport yet so a lot of walking and random encounters. I'd rather just hand wave it and say they get there after 60 days of travel, but this is the demon infested underdark and I hate to make it like "oh you get there without much trouble, and they could use the XP provided by the encounters. So I'll just put together some encounters and spring them every few days I guess. Maybe put a small side dungeon in there. Two of the PC have 3 levels of madness, infinite madness, and a couple other have 1-2 levels. They will stop at Blingdenstone most likely to try and find a cleric who can cast Greater Restoration to help that. [/QUOTE]
