[Of Sound Mind]Piratecat, my players will hate you!

[Rune]

I've just recently got my hands on this incredible adventure (who's this Monte Cook fellow that signed it, though?) and all I can say is...

Wow.

My players are going to hate you.

But not me. I can fit this into my campaign perfectly, despite the unusual nature of my setting. That's more than I can say for the only other module I've used (am using): The Speaker in Dreams. That one's heavily modified. But this one...I couldn't bring myself to do it if I needed to. Fortunately, I don't need to.

The dream handouts are especially inspiring.

There's only one problem...

I can't find a dream that's appropriate for the monk in my group. And he's kind of a cornerstone character, because he's the only one that's been there consistently from the beginning and, well, because he has a monkey.

I could just write my own, but then the player would kind of be cheated, because the other players would have these incredibly evocative dreams to read and the player of the monk would have to make do with my much blander immitation.

I can't bring myself to do it.

So...here's a request:

What would it take to convince you to write up a dream for monks?

My first instinct would be to ask for an email, as at least one of my players reads the boards, but I think that other boardmembers would also like to see one.

Please?

Have a look over on the Fiery Dragon website. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Oh! That's good! Thanks for the heads up! This warms my twisted little black heart.

Thank you, Piratecat, for giving me a product that my players will love to hate!

Everything's better with monkeys!

Oh, it gets even better! In the last (so far, still unposted) session, it flinged flaming poo. *grumble*Stupid pyromaniac halfling monk with his pyromaniac spider monkey...*grumble*

P.S., to bring this back to the topic: Those of you who have not purchased Of Sound Mind and are not playing in it, go buy it while you have the chance! I am not kidding. Every good thing that's been said about this adventure module is absolutely accurate. Unless it's an understatement.

 

[Rune]

Oh yeah, I meant to say this somewhere earlier, but, regarding the module...

Holy crap, Piratecat!

I'm holding out on the off chance that I'll have someone else willing to DM it for me.

I understand, but I recommend that you pick it up anyway and hide it from yourself (if you have enough willpower to not open it until you're sure no one else will run it for you).

I would have loved to play it some time, but somebody's got to run it and I'll take sadistic pleasure in doing it, so I guess it's me!

If any DM who wants to see something of it in practise, take a look at my current storyhour here http://www.enworld.org/messageboards/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6689

This is scaled for slightly higher level adventurers in my campaign, but gives you an idea of how great the adventure is.

If you are a player, don't read it! Many, many major spoilers!

Cheers

My work here is done.

*grin* Thanks for the praise! I like how it came out. The fact that other people like it too fills me with glee. I think it has lots of potential. Ohhhh, yes.

No one post any spoilers in this thread, please!
