[QUOTE="Greg Benage, post: 7190361, member: 93631"] I'll get to my enhancements as the campaign progresses (mostly added content, especially levels 1-5), but so far my party cleared Nightstone of goblins, and then...when the Seven Snakes showed up, they said, "Okay, all yours, bye." And they left for the Dripping Caves. So they roll out of town (they have a gypsy wagon...they're a traveling carnival troupe) and the Snakes raise the drawbridge. Then the orcs show up, but the party manages to evade them as twenty orcs on the move don't exactly sneak up on you. The orcs head for Nightstone as the party skirts around them and heads to the Dripping Caves. At level 2. They don't look for alternate entrances. The druid goes in as a weasel, hears and smells goblins and some unfamiliar things. The half-elf monk tries to sneak in and is immediately spotted by the goblin archers. There are six PCs, but they still get their asses handed to them. One dead (his "cousin" shows up looking for him after the fight), several unconscious bodies dragged from the cave in the general retreat. They did manage to kill the ogres and several goblins. They take a long rest and I level them up to 3rd. Now they go back to the cave, there's a crude sign out front reading "WE MAKE PEESE," but they're pissed off, 3rd level, and don't offer Boss Hark anything he can work with. Boss Hark has deployed his rats out to the ogres' nest, along with a couple goblin archer reinforcements on the ledges, and he's got Morak in his cave with a knife to his throat, but the PCs call his bluff and he waits too long to follow through. There's some more tough fighting but the PCs get it done and rescue the villagers. They repeatedly point out what a rough stretch this little town in the middle of nowhere has had: giants drop rocks on you and steal your eponymous megalith, you retreat to goblin-infested caves, the goblins loot your town, the carnival troupe shows up and clears it only to have the Zhents arrive and occupy it, then an orc war-party shows up and attacks it again. Who's wearing the [I]amulet of monster attraction[/I]? Now it's back to Nightstone where I have to figure out what happened between the Ear Seekers vs. The Seven Snakes, Kella and the guards.
