[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 6148457, member: 19675"] Like I've said- I have seen this before. Some DMs just seem to outclever themselves into a narrative corner, expect their players to be mind readers, construct campaign railroads, or view the game as me vs them. And those are pitfalls even [I]good, experienced[/I] DMs can fall into. This looks like campaign's end, to me. But as I've ALSO said, let the TPK play out. That might be how the plot goes forward. I had a campaign in which a huge story arc involved the PCs being killed and adventuring in the afterlife, trying to win their way back to the realm of the living. And supposedly, the whole Jean-Luc Picard becomes Locutus storyline from ST: TNG was the result of writers thinking they were being fired between seasons. So they "killed off" the main character. Then, when their contracts got renewed, they had to find a way to bring him back... Perhaps, somewhere in the field or just on the other side of it is someone who is going to help you. [/QUOTE]
