[QUOTE="jbear, post: 5544752, member: 75065"] Hate away by all means. Throwing the cards away ... they're yours, do as you will! I will think no lesser of you, I promise! Before you throw them away however, you could use them as reference to make yourself equivalent Random Effect Charts. As Raven Crowking says, really that is what the cards represent. If it's cards you don't like, no worries, just steal the conceptand put it into a format you like. A spooky effect chart that if succumbed to caused a negative change in the character's state was something I made up to include in my game way back when I ran Keep of the Shadowfell ages ago, to make being in the Keep creepier and to make resting a pretty average option. If a charcter beat the effect three times in a row (was unaffected by it) then they became immune and received a reward. I used a 3.5 book (Heroes of Horror) to help inspire me, and it really added something to the game atmosphere. In fact one of the PCs lost it when he started seeing his shadow being mauled by other demonic shadows and blood began to drip from the walls and his ears. He panicked, bolted from where the party was and ran into a room full of zombies. It was grand! I'm looking forward to this one, especially as I can see the campaign heading into the Shadowfell in the notto distant future. I was thinking of adapting one of the Scales of Wars adventures that heads into the Shadowfell. It's the third one I think. Has anyone ever run that adventure actually, now that I think about it? If so, any comments? WOuld the boxedset enhance that adventure do you think? [/QUOTE]
