[QUOTE="ShadowDenizen, post: 3659499, member: 16485"] Trying and failing. :) Since we're behind you, I don't think there's any major spoilers revelaed. ;) We have a hair-trigger party. When we found out Smenk was in league with Filge, we just snapped. (The fACt that we were assaulted en route to the Old Observatory by Undead, and one of the villagers we were friendly with was killed in the skirmish, was a factor as well.) He gave his all to escape, but some tanglefoot bags, well-placed Ghost-Stepping, and a few useful cantrips served to end it for him. Of course, now there's a power vaccum in Diamond Lake, where Dourstone is vying with Parrin to beomce the primary mine-manager. (That was the impetus for us to explore the mines; to destabilize DOurstone's power-base so that Parrin can take over semi-bloodlessly.) Interesting. We always got the "Power-Mad Miner" vibe from him. (He has a DIRE APE to guard the inside of his manor!! Who does that?) I may have to read the modules after the campaign ends, see how it is written to be played out. Not sure how the modules are SUPPOSED to go, but our DM has it tailored to our party pretty well, since we've thrown some monkey-wrenches into the plot, I would assume. ;) [/QUOTE]
