[QUOTE="htetickrt, post: 1462887, member: 16534"] A few crunchy bits on the changes as of the conclusion of the Tierak Morcane battle: Andy was the first PC to die during this adventure. Being five levels lower than the stepchildren, I knew that the "weird hangers-on," as I called them earlier in the thread, would be delicate, and I settled on an instant reincarnation rule for them if they died. In character, it fit with their odd dynamic, and out of character it allowed me to keep the multiple PC experiment going for a while longer. I was hoping for something weird to pop up, like a wolverine (this was 3.0E), but the best I got was a satyr. I'll let you guess who became that later. Andy's player, greywalker, had a lot of fun with the change, as you'll see in future installments. The new PC, Calla, is actually run by a different player, and goes along with the higher-level characters. She's a female halfling rogue13, pretty well-balanced in terms of trap detection/removal, sneaking, and scouting. Definitely an asset to the previously rogue-free group. Luckily he chose this rather than the evil sorceress he originally wanted. More to come soon. [/QUOTE]
