[QUOTE="JoeBlank, post: 471306, member: 1806"] I hope I am not starting to sound like Piratecat's bitch, but I must put in a word for Of Sound Mind. If you have concerns about scaling the adventure, or altering it to fit your campaign, many of the answers are included in the adventure. Better yet, PC is very available and receptive to questions. He helped me scale the adventure for 3-4 characters of 4th-5th level, with no psionics in the group. Then he even helped me tailor the adventure for online play, as we play on OpenRPG. A good hint if you use the adventure, keep the psionics even if you don't have any psionics in the group. Better yet, conceal from the players the name of the adventure you are using (easy for me with online play) and let them try to figure out that psionics are involved. That said, if you hate psionics there are easy instructions to convert them to normal magic for the adventure. But on PC's own advice, you can use the psionics even without the Psionics Handbook, just from the info in the adventure and the SRD. OSM is a little tough for first level as written. With only 3 players, I would throw in an NPC, or run another 1st-level adventure first, and use it as written for 3 2d level characters. Aside: Piratecat, you ever realize the tendency to abbreviate your name as PC, which conflicts with shortening Player Character? Complicated. [/QUOTE]
