Provide a thrilling climax, kill off 90% of the party, end the world, whatever.Ending a campaign too soon is almost always the better choice -- a memorable conclusion is better, even if it comes earlier than expected, than just petering out.Kill your pretties. That applies to campaigns, not just NPCs.You can ALWAYS start a new one. In the same world, even. Different place, different time. Compare my Barsoom Tales story with the Angels one -- same campaign setting, different campaigns (different rules, even).Kill your pretties. It gets easier with practice.One final note: you'll always have more good ideas. Don't be afraid to cut down the current ones.</blockquote>
