Emperor Valerian
First Post
If you're one of my players.. shoo!
Well... I've gone and done it... I'm tossing a tarrasque at my players in two sessions. The decision was made mostly on the "wouldn't it be cool" scale, not the properly thinking things out scale. They're 18th level right now, and will probably be 19th when they face the creature, possibly 20th.
The next session I intended to be a hint dropping session... they'll likely head to some nearby monasteries and other repositories of information and in return for tasks, they'll get the info they need. Herein lies the problem... what information should I give them? What tactics are good for taking down a tarrasque (considering that even when I was a player, I never faced one)?
They'll have a wide array of resources available, except for an army (the army is busy fighting the bad guy that woke up the beast). Any useful tactics or spells? I want to scare the pee out of them, but I definitely don't want a TPK (they don't know this
).
