If any of you have any tipson it, let us know.SCENARIO DOWNLOAD:<a href="http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/oa/20041230a" target="_blank">http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/oa/20041230a</a>GOOD THINGS:* There are 4 combats and one that can be avoided. They are actuallya little easy for the APL (but the scenario is typical for 4characters not 6 like the Living campaigns).* The scenario would fit very well into a 4-hour slot (perfect for aone-night's adventure)* The scenario could be adapted to any level (change monsters (usecharm instead of dominate)* The map is clear and concise. The scale is large enough to print well.* The Read-Aloud text paints the background for the PC's to interactwith. It doesn't say "YOU" anywhere.* The DM's text is NICE AND SHORT. There's nothing worse than whenan author thinks that if he has a page and a half of DM's text thatit's a better encounter..not true <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Shorter is better. Trust your DM.THINGS THAT COULD BE BETTER:* It's linear with no red herrings* There should be the _names_ of a couple NPC villagers that the PC'scan talk to.* Although the Couatl's name sounds very "Central American," thatdoesn't mean that it's a good name. Unpronounceable names are just asannoying as names that sound too modern* I'd like a basic city map (put the Cemetary and Temple locationsfor sureAdapting it to Eberron:* The temple could be to the "Sovereign Host"* A changeling could be implicated* A hook could be linked to an organizationjh</blockquote>
