[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 7182990, member: 945"] I'm going to stick with 1. It's more manageable. Plus, my PCs are impatient, and will likely just try and leave before the day is over. I need something to keep them here to realize it's in a time loop. Hmm, I was just putting it in there as a "story" in the city. But yea, it could have been there during the catastrophe, and is now caught in the loop, and every day it tries to eat one of Farmer Brown's sheep. I like that idea. Brilliant! And cruel... It seems reasonable that this could be going on for some time, but decades would be a bit much given that it's right along a fairly major riverway. Exactly. Interesting twist. I'll have to think about this one. If you saw your whole town killed, and you were forced to live among illusions of them every day in a cycle over and over, you'd probably be drunk as well. In fact, that gives me an idea - early on, the drunk could stumble over to the party's table and literally just tell them "the whole world is an illusion, spinning and spinning. Every day is the same.", and then passes out. Interesting! So, maybe the party has to figure out how to redeem this one individual, in order for the cycle to stop. I'll have to think about that some more! [/QUOTE]
