Hey guys, I’d like your feedback on this subject….
We are currently playing the Arena Games in the AOW AP:
Last session, my PC went off to explore under the arena, and found the hidden home of Bozal and his minions.
The session ended with them barely able to defeat him after going through the Morghs and the Spawns of Kyuss. Next friday they will likely discover the Apostolic scrolls and the Ulghurstasta-containing sphere.
My questions are:
1) I’ve gone through the ways one can destroy the sphere (other than the one who created it – which is presumably now out of the question, since Bozal is now quite dead) and they seem all very difficult to achieve for 9th-10th level PCs…
The turning undead attempt could be feasibile, but heck! – the dispel 1d4 round later against caster level 20! That’s tough!!!
2) Even if they break the sphere, the adventure says that the Ulghur-boy vill attack anything on tendrils’range, or – much more likely option in my opinion – try to open its way to the arena floor since nobody will stay near it…
What happens next? Big night combat in the empty arena? And the games? No distruption whatsoever? To me it seems that this was not what the adventure’s author had in mind (I think that he wants the PS destroy the Ulghur with no-one else being the wiser of this fact) but the odds are stacked against this happening…
How have you handled these points in your campaigns?
Thanks all for the help!
