[QUOTE="Neurotic, post: 8380668, member: 24380"] [USER=67]@Rune[/USER] what makes the knights leonine is their name, Löwe = Lion in german :) [Spoiler=More lost details] The first knight is literaly named Leonidas - which again is Lion in Greek - I guess the editing lost too much of the explanation in the background :( I originally had empty treasury contain the family sword (that one would family treasure, not kingdoms) and PCs trying to get it find out that it is empty...again, a plot arc lost to the word limit. Last year I cut off details of a goddess used in the story and it made one ingredient confusing. It happens. What I did same as the last year (intentional risk) is not include details about the cultists or the locations so DM can have any difficulty (level) of the encounters set up. While terrible bard needs to be mid- to high level, there is no reason why the rest of the adventure (cultists in particular) have to be. I would put this against the party of 7th or 8th level with cultists being weak on average (lvl 3-5l, but with each location having a higher level bard to motivate them and each witth different powers. [/spoiler] Congratulations to [USER=7027139]@loverdrive[/USER] for the excellent idea and writing and good luck in the next year competition. [/QUOTE]
