[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5851513, member: 92511"] This is very cool. I would totally play this. Just will involve, as the DM (you're the DM, right Jeph?), some adjudication/fiat on your part...so that a PC doesn't inadvertently die of old age. Also...the party could come across a toddler...or young child (7-10 y.o.)...nah, make then 4 or 5 y.o....who can't/doesn't speak but has strange unpredictable magic power (if the PCs are good to him/take care of him, magical things happen in their favor, if someone is nasty, maybe weird - but not overly "harmful" things (their nose grows to the size of a troll, their skin turns blue, they slip and fall on a patch of ice or a puddle that just "appears", etc.) befall a PC who scares or yells at the child. There would be no obvious reason or casting for this...it would just happen and be up to the party to discover/put together that the toddler or infant is the cause of the strange occurrences. The child is, of course, Jahr, trapped in the "time sink" he created. Protecting and getting him out of the Waste and setting him up somewhere safe/to "relearn" his magic could be one goal of the adventure in the Waste. He'd still be a child, but maybe some of his mind comes back to him outside of the sink (playing an ancient archmage trapped in a child's body sounds like a fun NPC). [/QUOTE]
