Message: <blockquote data-quote="Samnell" data-source="post: 780671" data-attributes="member: 130">To fully initiate myself into the Church of PC Worship, I'm going to run Of Sound Mind for my PBEM group. In seeking to perform this sacrament, my unworthy mind has produced questions. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />The writeup for Thimdrul's lab on page 30 indicates that the PCs have a 20 foot drop to contend with before they can intervene in Thrimdrul's crystal spinal tap. This is area 25, which on the map on page 26 has no apparent drop marked.The only 20 foot drop marked on the map is between areas 26 and 29. Area 25 has a ramp up to it and an illusionary wall in place, but these are separately addressed. The adventure assumes the PCs come in by way of the ramp from area 23 to 25 in all likelihood, so they would not contend with any of the marked drops. Is there supposed to be another drop that isn't marked on the map, or is the text in error about where the drop is.Also in regards to the map on page 26, a stream of water is shown eventually going into area 19 and thence descending in the pretty glowing waterfall down through the mountain, but before it does this the map has it winding its way through the lair. The text never mentions the water after area 19. Is there supposed to be a stream running through the dragon's lair (which would be strange as it runs through walls) or is the map just inadvertently ambiguous about showing the path of the water below the lair?One more (just one, I promise): I need to scale the adventure for a group of seven second level PCs, two of which only have one class level due to ECL. Would the second level or third level scaling suggestions shake out better? Their hit points are a shade low for the ECLs, but there's a lot of them to go around.</blockquote>
