[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9597293, member: 6801845"] I've done it before and had fun with it, I shrunk them down far enough that they were basically the size of miniatures. For simplicity all damage from weapons, spells and falling was scaled down as were area of effect and so on. All sorts of animals were dangerous, from various insects to now giant mice. The housecats were something they had to watch out for and try to avoid at all costs, fortunately for them they were easily distracted. Nobody had animal friendship because they didn't know it was going to happen and there wasn't a druid in the party. But even if they had it, the animal only really considers the caster a friend which likely would have caused issues and of course not all animals get along with each other. If I were to run it today I may consider having the animals in the house immune because they've eaten or been exposed to so many magical spills and accidents they are no longer considered normal beasts or disallowed it simply as part of the shrinking process. :unsure: In my case it was caused by a magical accident by a bumbling wizard who didn't realize what they had done. The wizard had also accidentally created some miniature golems out of badly painted toy soldiers. A lot of the adventure was just how to get around and, of course, avoid the cats. Then they still had to get the wizards attention. We had a lot of fun with it, even if it was so long ago I don't remember most of the detail. Now I'm thinking maybe I should do it again. :) [/QUOTE]
