[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 7481172, member: 54629"] On the way to Mornbryn's Shield, the PCs stopped in Triboar. I decided not to run the attack at that point because I wasn't really prepared for it, but I introduced a few of the NPCs and let them explore the town a little. The ranger PC went and spent the night in Gwaeron's grove, hoping for a prophetic dream. I initially told her she didn't have one, as I wasn't able to think of anything on the spot, but now I'd like to retcon something in, as I feel it's the perfect opportunity to give the PCs some backstory and foreshadowing. I'm thinking she'll have a dream similar to Rey's vision when she touches the lightsaber in [I]The Force Awakens[/I]. That is, a jumble of images from the past, present, and future that may or may not make much sense without any context. Now I just need to figure out what to include! Anyone got any suggestions? As an aside, I think the oni posing as Gwaeron in the woods is a cool idea, but I don't see how to actually work it into the game. The oni's modus operandi is to kill and eat lone rangers. If the ranger PC sleeps in the woods alone again, and I have the oni attack, it'll probably succeed in killing and eating the ranger. But if the whole group sleeps in the woods, why would the oni show itself? [/QUOTE]
