[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 5528511, member: 11300"] Hello NewJeffCT, I think IanB has nailed this one. Chances are that your PCs are going to: [sblock] - deal with the first chunk of bandits at the Thorn River Camp. - be on the lookout for Svetlana's ring and be directed by captured bandits of it being stolen by mites/(or spriggans). - find the old sycamore tree that is home to the spriggans and release the captured Kobold Mikmek who will "assist". - destroy the rest of the spriggans who will also have quite a few real nasty "pets" and realise that the Kobolds have the ring. [/sblock]The main dynamic to be wary of is to make sure that the kobolds are enough of a threat to the Spriggans that an ongoing war between the two is plausible - even if and particularly in terms of Tartuk's motives this war is a losing one for the kobolds. If followed this "typical" way, then chances are that the PCs will never actually fight the kobolds except for Tartuk (who can be easily made significantly tougher based on his background). If they do fight the kobolds, it will be a trivial victory for the PCs that can be made a little more interesting by adding a few pets as appropriate as well as many terrain-based traps and stuff. Glad to see you're going full steam ahead with this - I hope you enjoy. :) Best Regards Herremann the Wise [/QUOTE]
