Perhaps, instead, I should keep my big nose outta here. I've successfully resisted the temptation to "look ahead" with adventure content before (specifically, with the Dungeon World built-in story for the Holy Avenger), but it's never a good idea to court temptation if you can avoid it!I'm betting that single ghoul was our very own Mr. Skull Head--and I think you made the right call. Even if I got chomped on because of it! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Heh, and then we threw you for a loop and made it all go beautifully pear-shaped, didn't we? Nobody seems to mention that "no plan survives contact with the PCs" can swing in the DM's favor now and again. Hope this doesn't count as spoilers for what's coming up. I'd figured some corridor-crawling was in order, given your comments at last night's session, but...if I have gotten spoilers, I apologize.One adventure path that I saw just the very first taste of, and which looked promising, was War of the Burning Sky. We only got one session into that campaign before the DM had to call it quits (attack of the wild grad school), but WotBS had some neat stuff. Possibly the coolest bit, which I probably should've floated your way, Tequila: every character gets an extra "fluff" skill, something that describes their background, training, vocation, or some other meaningful character trait, to be worked out with the DM. The examples given in the free intro download are "singing, carpentry, painting--even origami!" It's a neat little freebie that helps establish each character as a person with a hobby, passion, or vocation, without crimping in-character resources. For my character, I chose metalwork--including both functional (weapons, farm tools) and aesthetic (jewelry, artistic work); I want to say one of the other characters was a calligrapher. Just a neat little thing.Of course, WotBS is a complete campaign world with a specifically chosen intro adventure, so it might not be the easiest thing to adapt. But I've heard good things about it nonetheless. Same goes for Zeitgeist. Haven't heard anything about the other ENWorld paths yet, so I couldn't say.</blockquote>
