Maybe make the party all bards, all just trying to make their way their concert.. but on the way they solve a crime in a spooky mansion in a small village they stopped in.. Basically, the plot of a gory, Scooby-doo episode lol; sans the hijinks... xD Characters and setting are already decided, so maybe next time. Dynalo posted... In my campaigns, it's typically a good rule of thumb that any chest that is locked is also trapped. (I usually don't bother putting traps on chests unless I feel it's exceedingly obvious - eg. in an otherwise empty room you see a lone chest on an altar, illuminated by a single beam of light) Or I let them smash it open and then tell them that they broke the various potions that were in them, and the liquids are beginning to combine and are starting to give off noxious fumes. I'll keep that in mind and have it break the potions in the future and other fragile objects inside next time. wolfy42 posted... We just played our first game last night (with a new DM) lol. I almost messed everything up by trying to investigate the quest given and her husband when I got to town (It was a trap), then I figured out there was a secret passage in the basement (way before he wanted me to). Meanwhile the DM's wife is our cleric and the first boss/bad guy we encountered took her out in 1 turn (luckily he just had her be unconcious and not dead so we brought her back with goodberries). Meanwhile my Babarian halfling only has a 9 int, so I've been trying to bite my tounge and not make smart suggestions (like...lets get out of here, we are obviously being framed!!). Anyway we played for like 5-6 hours last night, was quite fun. Good luck with DMing, our new DM did quite a good job over all (even if my investigation initially should have turned up that the NPC that contacted us couldn't read or write lol....turned out she had already been dead a week anyway (But nobody knew that yet), but they would have known she couldn't have written all of us herself. That's pretty awesome. It sounds like a pretty fun game. --- Stupid signature! <cite>Mario_VS_DK posted [p:881419310] in Going to b...
