All he needed at the start of the scenerio was a bothed fortitude save and he was in there.  You can almost see him salivating in the post.   I'm not saying he didn't make all the rolls.  Hell, he probably made all the rolls well before the scenerio and got all giddy once his attack beat the pcs AC.  I'm saying his overeagerness to move through this scenerio caused him to screw his players of the right to defend themselves.  The scenerio reads like boxtext at a convention rather than interactive storytelling.  The only thing that saves this campaign is the even more broken rule of having free death in a game (and having a great npc who can make resserurcts happen cheaper) .  That allows the players to not give a care if their character is killed, maimed or turned into chiapets. The only reason KM didn't here anyone complain about the scenerio in his party is because they've already become complacent with not really caring about death.  For DMs whom care about player backgrounds and weaving pcs into the story, this scenerio woudln't have worked.  As previously stated, my players wouldn't provide any backgrounds of note and caution would be thrown to the wind.  My thinking would be A. the DM is going to kill me when he gets ready to anyway, so why bother being paranoid. B. even if this character dies he'll be back anyway or i'll just roll up another.</blockquote>
