That drunken sailor who told them the story of the disappearing island I just added for flavor, they started asking around for it, so now I made something up for that.  Do you plan most of the campaign before you start to finish or just wing it. I'm betting most will say a little of both but I had maybe 5 adventures planned. That will not get a party to level 9 for my dragon battle at the climax at the game when I started it.</blockquote>
