Moreover, it only lasted for a number of rounds equal to the other player's Charisma modifier. I was a bit miffed, and I did use it a little too often... I was new to the game, and I did in hindsight kind of abuse it. It didn't help that we fought against those three types seemingly back to back either. I do think it sounds fair now, considering it one-shot-killed two different bosses.</p>A GM I use to game with said that "Aura of Justice" could not grant the additional bonuses on evil outsiders, undead, and evil dragons.

<p>The PCs are level 6 when entering the dungeon, so they could (and most likely will) have the spell <i>Fly</i>. If the PCs are tempted, they could bypass many of the dungeon simply by flying around the buildings and such. For this fact, I've decided to add wind effects to the castle grounds.

<p>One of my proposed solutions is to replace Grock with a Whispering Way Cultist, a lackey, since it was noted that there wasn't much WW connection to this module. Probably one who, having encountered many of the traps inside the castle was left for dead, and took refuge to the top of the tower. My end result will be having him take the Death-gag effigy from <i>BM</i> or possibly have him leap to his death to the sea below when reduced to a number of hit points.</p>MurphysParadox wrote:Nathonicus wrote:Inkwell, the ones that come to mind are the Gatehouse which is tiny for 3 trolls to be running around in and the musuem where the guardian is moving around in a very small place.
