[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 2866391, member: 36150"] Holy crap. Have you tried ASKING the PC's what they plan on doing beforehand? :P Okay, based on what you've told me, I have a few assumptions of my own: G: Having some fun time to party would be great, since all victories should be celebrated. I might take this time to: H. Go buy magic items, if I wanted or needed them. But, if I then learned that: A. The "evil mastermind" stole nukes, I would most certainly move straight towards the "evil mastermind" above and beyond all other goals. If I didn't know who it was, I'd find a way to find out... possibly thanks to: I. The people who you want to help the PCs. Have an e-mail/fax sent to one of the PC's that one of the NPC's has a lead on the nukes. Should the PC's learn that the nukes are unrelated to the problem at hand, convince the new allies to keep tabs on them while we go to: C. Gaia or Japan. But I can't go there because I'll go insane. I'll need some powerful magic to get in there and hence I go look for: B. The Holy Grail. I assume that the Grail is a holy relic of healing and that its waters/presence will protect me from insanity. Once I perform the favor for a friend, said friend can tell me what the connection between Avalon and the Grail is and what to do in Avalon: D. In Avalon, I would hope to learn about the seelie/unseelie and how "some guy in reality" is trying to open a rift into the real world, unleashing angry fey folk on Gaia. Back to Gaia where: E. Said crime boss is waiting to be bashed on our way to the main villain. J. The moon?! There's nothing up there but green cheese and footprints, right? Or is that the home base of the villain? Mwahaha.... Well, that's just me. But I'm thinking like a PC and a DM all at once there. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
