[QUOTE="Goddess FallenAngel, post: 3581368, member: 11434"] Kudos to you for how well you've done thus far! :) I'd love to play in a game like that. Since you asked for advice... Personally, I would suggest lightening up the mood a bit for the next adventure or two. Give them a straightforward adventure to complete. Dark is nice, but too much of it can lead to boredom or frustration with the game. Not everything needs to be a life-and-death or deeply moral challenge. Perhaps for the next some time, plan out something more straightforward - but drop in elements that, at the time the PCs encounter them, seem rather unimportant - then do another adventure like the above, and have tie-ins from that seemingly unimportant element(s) from the previous adventure. Essentially, lighten it up a bit, but foreshadow your next adventure. :) [/QUOTE]
