Message: <blockquote data-quote="Blue" data-source="post: 8486079" data-attributes="member: 20564">Today was the first session with the two new players joining my ongoing campaign at level 8 after a Session 0 last week.  One of them had had a fairly large life emergency and wasn't prepared, but real life comes first.  Other than that it went fairly well.  A quick but satisfying exit fo the two other characters and entrance of one of the new players, and the other one had a couple of minutes to pull things together.  The timing wasn't perfect for bringing in new players - the break at the end of last session was ambushing members of a druid circle trying to tear down civilization and killing one while the other two escaped back to where they had captured elves they had implanted with a root heart to control them, so this session was wrap up and a big set-piece battle without a huge amount of context for the new players.  But it still seemed to go fairly well.One of the highlights was when the new rogue, just woken from being captured and having grabbed a weapon, made an attack vs. one of the druids who was out of line of sight of everyone else, no sneak attack or anything.  I figured it wasn't going to be a big deal, and it wasn't a lot of damage - but the druid failed his Concentration check and the water elemental attacking the party went away.</blockquote>
