I'd be inclined, after the battle,...delightful. I'd be inclined, after the battle, to just go with the future PCs from the boat: explain they had some adventures afterward, lost some limbs, stole a ship from a drug lord, narrowly escaped Nidus, and now they're mysteriously back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-66450154652206094482011-02-08T08:47:45.671-08:002011-02-08T08:47:45.671-08:00The turn-to-iron was just a spicy take on a cockat...The turn-to-iron was just a spicy take on a cockatrice. One of my players asked me afterward if I'd placed a cure for it somewhere and I told him no, that I thought they might figure something creative out with the time travel doohickey, which they did. Now Nidus will have a solid iron statue of a frightened mage and Yestlick gets to take part in the Battle of Nidus anyway.<br /><br />As for the boat . . . I was thinking I would just wait for some quiet moment in the future where the party has docked somewhere, gone to shore, and make the boat disappear into the past. But right this moment I'm thinking I'll invoke the spirit of the great Rients and have duplicates of the party pour out of the boat this Friday, damn the consequences.Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-55984740306097690132011-02-08T01:00:53.528-08:002011-02-08T01:00:53.528-08:00I was going to say: a legless dragon, a mutant pig...I was going to say: a legless dragon, a mutant pig, a whole bunch of giant knucklebones and half a Yithian. The bows might be mouths. I love love love the tentacle arm, the whole conceit of "what is this?" and the wire object-holders, which sounds like it could be a contemporary art exhibit. Will the ship fall from the sky and break, or will it just be stuck in the chasm? Does it have people on it? What if this happened to the PCs..? (very Time Bandits)<br /><br />Turning to iron was rough, and again I have no idea if it's reversible, or one part of a cycle per the angel of geometry, or anything. Destroying the bugs might be the best or the worst thing. You are a cruel man. <br /><br />Playdough. Genius. I may steal this for a game and have the characters model themselves for a transdimensional mission. They'll be just as rough and weirdly formed as the models they make.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-18037783043253289032011-02-07T22:38:52.396-08:002011-02-07T22:38:52.396-08:00Thanks Pat, appreciate it.
@C'nor: it's ...Thanks Pat, appreciate it. <br /><br />@C'nor: it's a collection of everybody's. I think that is a big sword, a fancy shield and a bunch of oil casks/straw bales, but some of the rest I have no clue. I'm going to have to ask them.
