We're near the end of the first adventure EDGE OF ANARCHY. I'm using Pathfinder with some house rules (mostly Action Points and starting HP at CON score + Hit Die).The last two sessions have been role play and no combat but this one, where the PC's are trying to find the body of a murdered tribal boy in the city before a conflict breaks out, was pretty much all exploration and combat. My favorite part of this session was when the PC's engaged three Derro in a room killing two of them but the third one escaped down a narrow foul smelling corridor. I mean I played up how foul and rank it smelled (like feces, rotting flesh, stale urine, vomit and hot garbage) but still the tiefling Inquisitor of Abadar (dont ask...) perused the Derro regardless. When she got into the room I told her that the smell was over powering and there was a massive shape at the other end of the room that stood up and uttered : "FOOD?!?" I guess it was my voice and and the way I hunched down that gave the player and her PC pause. At that point I just decided to go for it and started with it screaming: "YOU FEED NOW!!! FOOD!!! EAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!" The PC took off BACK down where she had come. I desscribed the crashing sound behind her and the walls reverbrating as the thing chased after her. When she turned around to see what it was as she was running I just described to her that what ever it was couldnt fit through the corridor and that it's bulging mass strained against the walls. She couldnt make out what it was. She came back into the room where the other PC's were screaming "It's a S**T DEMON!!! We cant go in there!!" The rest of the PC's agreed and decided to take another route around.They had no idea what it was (it was an Otyugh) but with just the vague description and the voice they were scared enough to not even think about going back into that room. We're talking about 5 4th level PC's who probably could have taken that Otyugh out. BUt they didn't know what it was and didn't want to risk it. I really have a good group of players.</blockquote>
