[QUOTE="abruno1974, post: 3391914, member: 50585"] Thanks to everyone who has replied. It's great to get advice from experienced DM's who know what they're doing. Anyway, like I said, I'm just starting up our little group. We've had 3 gaming sessions. Since one of the guys in the group is a doctor who lives out of state, we don't get a lot of time to get together, so I literally went to a random dungeon generator to make a 1st and 2nd level dugeon so we could get started right away. I wanted to get the hang of battle and get familiar with the rules, so I just picked a starting spot in the dungeon with no back story. I will be adding a back story as well as an overland map and all that stuff, but for now, it was a simple random dungeon populated with random creatures for that dugeon's level. So, I'm not running anything special. I just noticed one of the characters is willing to take an hour and a half (in game time) in every room to search up and down for everything...and it just seemed like there would need to be some kind of drawback to that (or why wouldn't everyone always do it?). Anyway, you've given me some good ideas, and a way to deal with it in the future. I'm still interested in hearing any other advice you may have. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
