[QUOTE="freyar, post: 3422829, member: 40227"] Ok, so I'm all set to start Forge of Fury up soon (with 4th level characters and a 5th level NPC tagging along part-time). For campaign and speed reasons, I'm making the following changes: 1) Replacing the orcs with hobgoblins. 2) Basically getting rid of the troglodytes on the second dungeon level. 3) Getting rid of the undead on the 3rd (duergar) level. 4) Inserting a mid-level NPC wizard who has been [I]feebleminded[/I] by a lucky duergar wizard (with a scroll). The duergar are willing to trade the captive in exchange for the PCs getting rid of the dragon, letting the PCs rescue someone they've been curious about for a while. So, after I've planned all this out, I'm realizing that my wife (one-on-one campaign, 2 PCs for each of us, and I'm relatively inexperienced DMing) prefers [U]by far[/U] mystery or puzzle type challenges in each session. It doesn't need to be anything major, but something to avoid lots of major combats. (That's part of why I'm getting rid of the trogs.) But I need some ideas; anyone want to help? Thanks! And, if you want to, I be happy to hear suggestions of an appropriate reward for a 10th level diviner to give a party like this once she's back to herself... Thanks! [/QUOTE]
