[QUOTE="varden, post: 6373689, member: 12142"] Thanks everyone! I've decided that the Bad Guys' Leader hates the PC, and will make an example out of him by simply doing a one-on-one combat with him in front of all his followers, where he mathematically has no chance of losing - he will kill the PC! Don't worry; this PC has a way of out-thinking me at the table and may surprise us. The resurrected Boss Monster does have some help in the form of ghostly echoes of himself - who are not under the control of the Bad Guys - that will make that combat a little harder on the Party, just so that battle isn't an anti-climax. The Bad Guys Leader is so short-sighted that he has full confidence in the Boss Monster winning, even though we all know the Party should be able to defeat the Boss. Also, the Leader's obsession with the PC has alienated his Number 2 [maybe his own daughter] and she will either attack him to take over his position, or go after the PCs, depending on what makes for a more interesting story. Finally, the Magic Thing that resurrected the Boss Monster can also be used to resurrect the PC if needed. The game is Saturday, will let you all know how it turns out. [/QUOTE]
