Message: <blockquote data-quote="Uller" data-source="post: 5865320" data-attributes="member: 413">The party I'm running a game for has entered a village where the population is ruled  over  (terrorized?) by a bog hag.  She had allowed a group of wererats to take over most of the trade related businesses to help her keep the villagers in-line (and it probably wasn't entirely her choice).  Unfortunately, the wererats (surprise!) proved to be unruly and began infecting the locals with lycanthropy and chaos is  ensuing (I've house-ruled that lycanthropy is a curse spread by a bite...not just filfth fever...feh!)Anyway...I expect eventually the party will run the hag out of town (if they don't end up joining her) and may want to track her down to her lair to finish her off.  By then they should be at or very close to 6th level.So I'd like to run a skill challenge to simulate the hunt.  The problem is, I have no idea how to write a decent skill challenge.  I've made up a few here and there to resolve some problems that have come up, but nothing all that complex.The party is 5th level and includes a Warden, Slayer, Mage (Necromancer/Enchanter), Druid (PHB2) and a Ranger (Hunter)Also, I'm trying to think of a way to end the adventure with something other than a boss fight...likely the main wererat will provide a boss fight (an elite feral wererat with some supporting creatures).  So I'm also trying to think of another way for them to defeat/destroy the hag in the end without a fight...trick her...they have to find a way to destroy her tree (like a dryad)...find some item that drives her away....  A fight is always an option for the party, but I won't pull punches and I expect her to have a couple trolls and an otyugh along with some traps so they risk a TPK (hunting bog hags in their lair is dangerous business after all).Ideas?</blockquote>
