[QUOTE="William drake, post: 3323440, member: 49143"] [b]This is what I would do[/b] You obviously want to use that scroll, but not to sure if its to rough for the players. And there seems to be an inssue if the cleric should be able to cast it at all anywas. So, the Dc19 sounds a bit rough, and you shouldn't use spells that will just up and smoke your players. Wound, mame, disfigure...cause them to rest and wait in a town for a few months for their bones to heal, fine, but dont just up and play for one spell to slay two of the party memebers right off the bat. If you want to use it still, warn the party. NOt you the Dm, but MPCs, put up the talk about this guy and how dangerous and deadly. Hes not a Bond Villian, he wont talk to them first. Once he sees them, hes going to go for the gun and shoot them dead. Another way to do it. Make that parchment locked away in the back of the church or building or wherever he is, and make it so that the playeres have to get to him before he uses it. Put innocencts in the way, so that the players can just run, and that they arn't just saving their own hides, but the other peopl in the church or w/e. put guards in their path, make it so that they have to really try adn stop this guy because if they dont, they can very well die.
