[QUOTE="Speed_demon, post: 7905704, member: 7020370"] The party's class might not have been the absolute best picked, but we had optimized from there as much as we could, had some spectacular luck, and great synergy. Yeah, Ashima-Shintu didn't use those stats, the previous DM had said there was some magical amulet that had contained a portion of her power, along with the chains binding her to weaken her (things we already knew in character; the amulet was a side quest he made up for Jhin), so I think he used something like a level 22 or so Elite demon from one of the books for her stats rather than her act 3 stats. Still a tough fight, but we had prepared well and were fresh for it. Leone Quital we just got very lucky against, fighting against his full stats (and the golems he had were all well above our level too). I think even if the Colossus had started acting up midway through, he might not have escaped all the different methods we had to pull Leone back, especially with getting Mage Cuffs on him so early. The DM admitted afterwards he didn't realize how important the Colossus was, not having read far enough ahead when he let us win there. I've never posted on these forums before a couple days ago, so this must be the second group that's done that then. Interesting to see that we aren't the only ones. Those are good points to consider. I would like to see her be a bit more active and proactive in her roleplaying, part of why I thought this might be a good idea, and as of this point, she's the only confirmed regular player in the group (the old DM might be depending on his schedule). Obviously, I can't exactly go back for the last five adventures and work things in, but, assuming I still wanted to go forward with that plan, is there anything you'd suggest I could do/use from this point forward to work it into the plot more? Adventure 6 and 7 don't really seem to have too many references to Kasvarina until suddenly she's there in adventure 8. Edit: Alternatively/also, what could I connect to the previous adventure plot points to make [I]look[/I] like foreshadowing or hints during the next few adventures? [/QUOTE]
