[QUOTE="pemerton, post: 9318949, member: 42582"] By reading the next paragraph, page or chapter. Here's an example from Dead Gods (p 84 - I opened up at random): [indent]Whatever means the cutters use to infiltrate the ranks of the Tormtor alliance - disguise, garnish, magic, or just plain sneakiness - they find the high-ups near the rear of the attack, on a rise behind the advancing forces.[/indent] I turned back a page to see how this is set up - "If the PCs manage to make their way through Erelhei-Cinlu and reach the Great Gate at the south side of the city, they witness a fierce battle." <read aloud text follows> Here's another example, p 99 of Expedition to the Demonweb Pits (the heading for this is on p 98 - "Chased Out of the City"): [indent]If the party didn't attach the bone naga ambassador, read <text>. If the party is reluctant to leave, continue: <text>. If the party thinks it has a better plan, add: <text>. If the party attacked the bone naga ambassador, read: <text> . . . Either way, go to encounter E5: Chased out of the City on p 108 . . . Encounters E6, E7 and E8 take place after the PCs have fled Zelatar and are wandering the plains around the city.[/indent] Page 114 has a sidebar on "The Helpful Tiefling": [indent]If the party is at a loss for how to deal with all these demons, you could take pity and point out a more or less human-looking tiefling that they encounter somewhere in the upper Demonweb . . .he offers some or all of the following suggestions <of actions the players should declare so that their PCs move to the next part of the adventure> . . . The tiefling doesn't care whether the Pact among Lolth and the demon lords succeeds or fails; he's here to report . . . for scholars in Sigil . . . Unbeknownst to the tiefling, his employers are the warden archons from the Tower of the Prophet.[/indent] This is all pretty standard stuff, I think. [/QUOTE]
