[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 5559366, member: 29398"] What actually happened was that the brother of one of the PCs was in one of the other parties - they'd all been sent out on suicide missions in disguise (the PC party survived as did one other out of 7) and the brother's party had been wiped out. So the PC party goes to investigate and nearly gets wiped out as well... Neat idea but if I tried it my players would be quite justified in stringing me up. I know as a player that if I'd just spent the time it takes to roll up an epic-level type (takes *way* longer than a 1st-level in any system) only to have it wiped out, and *then* have to turn around and roll up all over again - yeah, I'd be pretty annoyed. That said, if it was known going in that the high-level types were just a prelude to the main story that's different. Given that angle, I'll keep this one in mind.
