[QUOTE="Tequila Sunrise, post: 5404294, member: 40398"] The changeling's amnesia was the player's backstory. He told me "fill in the blanks however you want." He likes character discovery stuff. The kid having amnesia was partly me procrastinating on plot planning and partly "Gee, wouldn't it be fun to place an arcanist beholder in the dungeon, who slowly sucks memories out of mortal minds for some mysterious reason?" I had a vague idea that maybe this was how the changeling had lost his memory too, but how did he escape? I think the kid is actually a long-lost son; I'm building up my players' trust in my NPCs. (So when a betrayer appears at some later point, they might actually be surprised.) I guess my ulterior motive for this plot is to give the party a reason to experience the Fey Moon, but I also want it to be interesting and fun for the players. The changeling player is definitely excited about this character development. (He replied to the blog I linked to.) [/QUOTE]
