[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7202661, member: 19675"] The second time I used the solo mini adventure style intro was my best, I think: I had the PCs in a major island city-state celebrating the end of a generations-long war with a treaty and alliance sealed with a royal wedding. Everybody did their own thing until it was time for all non-residents to leave. Coincidentally, they all wound up on the final ferry... ...which was attacked by anthro-tiger raiders from another prime material plane. After a prolonged battle on board the ship, the captured PCs were spared, stripped, chained and led into the hold of the raiders' ship. When they were finally brought ashore, they're clearly in a completely different PMP... As they stood there on the sandy beach- still naked, but unshackled- one of the tiger-men informed them that their bravery & skills displayed during the raid earned them a second chance at life, as opposed to some of their shipmates. [I]*pointed past them towards several rotisserie fires*[/I] They were now on The Prince's private hunting island. They were to be given a head start into the jungle. As soon as The Prince arrived and had a light snack, the hunt would begin in earnest, announced by the beating of drums. Those that made it to the safe zone on the other end of the island would be spared. Those that didn't? He pointed at the fires again, The yelled "RUN!" [/QUOTE]
