[QUOTE="ridingsloth, post: 5670082, member: 6677009"] [B]Adventure 1 Act II Session 2[/B] This session ran pretty much like clockwork. We started aboard the [I]Impossible[/I] on the way to the Sea Cave, and played through the end of the Sea Cave adventure, then stopped early because we are lazy. :) - The PCs got into a fight almost immediately in the sea cave, completely ignoring the pillar until the fight was over. - The shadow stalker provided a fun challenge for them.

The resulting inferno led to him jumping into the water to put himself out... and dying from the damage he took falling. - That makes two encounter "leaders" in a row who killed themselves with environmental hazards. I've gotta quit that! :) This week's session will be cancelled for Dragon*Con, so next week we'll see how they deal with the fortress! I can't wait. :) PS. I haven't had to use it yet, but I'm prepared to name an NPC "Jean ValJean at any moment to throw them off the track". [/QUOTE]
