[QUOTE="Erywin, post: 3619903, member: 28794"] Kinda funny, this happens to me every once in awhile with the campaign I run. The players are very much like your group I think. I can plan 6 months ahead and not have to change a thing along the way, they just follow the plot like good little adventurers. Now this is great from a planning perspective but I always wish they would get more into the game, still haven't figured out how to do this and it kinda frustrates me :( For character backgrounds, I usually have to club them over the head with plot hooks... (We ended up doing backstory sessions to flesh out the current PC backgrounds, worked to some extent, gave me a bunch of bad guys to play with :D ) If I find anything that works, I will let you know. But for now, don't be discouraged, write up some interesting encounters/hooks that you enjoy making and throw them at the PCs, see how they respond and work from there. Cheers, E [/QUOTE]
