[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5399875, member: 92511"] Haha. Sweet! I'm glad you like/are using it. :D I'm honored you're so excited about my ideas (...now we just have to get you your own company so I can get that job you mentioned. ;) lol! Um...puzzles aren't really my thing, I'm afraid...but we seem to bounce things off each other pretty well...Besides, the bevy of brainstorming that is/can be ENworld. So...what do you have set up so far? Wyrmcrest is the stronghold left to one of your PCs, right? So...it's not like there's monsters floating around. Is there some creepy groundskeeper or sweet lil' old lady housekeeper that knows about all the secret passages and stuff? You could put puzzles in tile mosaics on the floor...that, you know, until they start accumulating clues just looks like a nice design in some parlor or the foyer. Have a riddle that they have to answer told be an enchanted/possessed empty suit of armor...? Maybe they have to answer the riddle to open a secret passage that leads them to more pieces of the prophecy? Um....hm...could set it up like a game of Clue. Have all different pieces of the puzzle found in all different rooms of the castle...and then when they're all brought into the same room...or placed in that mosaic on the floor...it..."triggers" some kinda spirit/oracle something that relays the secret of "the Withdrawal" and the prophecy about the vampire king, etc etc...What those various things/pieces would be...I dunno. haha. But each one should be behind some kind of challenge, puzzle, riddle, thing. There was a cool thread not too long ago in General Discussion about riddles, actually...some good ones in there. I dunno...lemme ponder this s'more. haha. And HEY, Enworlders! Jump on in here, huh? It's not just about thejc and myself. [/QUOTE]
