[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7182804"] Here's my thoughts: 1: How many days are in the loop? Personally, I'd do more than 1, maybe a week's worth of time. 2: Why is there a bulette stuck in the loop? Is it what caused the catastophe? Might make sense that the creature that caused the catastophe is caught in the loop too, which explains why the "drunk" tries to stop it. 3: I'd add some kind of extra-terrible secret to the place, like everyone's souls are trapped there too and can't rest in peace until the spell is broken. 4: If the spell is going on "forever" like, this town has been doing this loop for decades at least, I'd add eternal life to the "drunk". One of those "curse/boon" deals. 5: This would also add the drunk to the loop, even if he dies (I'm sure the poor sod may have attempted suicide already), he comes back when the town resets. 6: I wouldn't allow the party to break the spell. Even if they find the witch. Even if they kill her. Even if they destroy every bit of magic she has. I'd have the quest be about them convincing the "drunk" to do the right thing and tell the people the truth, which is the only way to break the spell. -6a: This of course means he can talk about the curse, he just won't. 7: Why does the town think of him a drunk? If the town resets every X time, wouldn't on day 1 they just been surprised Normal Man returned to town early? Why would they suddenly treat him as the Town Drunk? -7a: If this is part of the spell (curse/boon thing again) that's fine, and an even more horrible punishment, which is fitting for dealing with a Hag. His family has forgotten about him being their loving husband/father and now they think he's always been a useless drunkard, and since the town resets every week, he can never change their minds.
