[QUOTE="Stone Angel, post: 2823154, member: 5630"] Not a bad little scenario you have planned. I am also impressed by your willingness to let it be more that just another dungeon. First ask yourself a couple of questions who created the dungeon, why did they choose here, what is it made out of and so on. Does it have a specific architectual theme. Now as for challenging each character. As mentioned before the place should be warded against dimensional travel, a demonic lords prison would have some tough guardians. How about a super tough encounter right out of the gate, one that they really sweat over, not only is a lot of the combat out of the way, you have just put the PC's on edge for the rest of the session. "There is no rest in the jail!" Paladin/Bbn: Perhaps a few sanctified (BoED) creatures that are normally thought of as evil he has to deal with. He would want to attack them but he is registering no evil from them, a real quandry for him in the alignment axis maybe you might even shake his faith a little. Rouge: How about a multi room puzzle/trap think about some video games you've played move a block in room 1a and it does something in room 3b Wizard: A puzzle that requires him to take certain reagents and alter them with magic. The gate requires a stone rose( so he has to find a rose or create one then alter it with magic). Maybe have the puzzle come at him riddle by riddle demanding a little more than normal. It is only revealed to him when he defeats something in melee combat. Maybe you could make them all have to work together the mage has to keep a door open by expending a spell into it every round, the rouge has to disable an ultra deadly trap or even construct, while the Paladin has to keep something at bay either by combat or letting it chew on him Hope these help [/QUOTE]
