Poor Hedges.....red shirt NPC
Poor Benson.....also wearing red
Poor Thorar.....reduced to NPC status.....
Poor Darius....wait, .......poor Darius?
Yes folks, the one who had Powerful Enemy
AND Iuz on his character sheet, the one who failed his dex check and brought you all here, has bowed out.
Oh well, NPC status. Kind of like the Group W Bench. Anyone else want out?
Maybe the ones who bailed are the smart ones, Skuzz got his Hardby Marines.
Jacob got into the Bard College.
Any suggestions?
I TRY to make my games different. by bringing a seemingly overpowering threat of danger, and at first level, I'll
always usually leave a way out. Sometimes you find it, sometimes ya dont. Sometimes I push you through.
Besides, I had to make it tough. At least 4 players had Powerful Enemy on their sheets. I didn't tell them to put it there.
Lets do some purely hypothetical....
Garth flies away heading for home, Bazil relectantly gets back in his cage, Darius falls to the 'poison', Branc, Agrim and Nayman can only watch in horror as the beast leaps and rips into the front rank of Benson & Thorar. I can end it real quick.
Thankfully , and hopefully, that isnt what happens.
