Not a TPK!

2/5

This scenario goes quickly from deep investigation to FIGHTING!!! The second encounter ALMOST killed us all, but my Oracle managed to plane-shift away, while the GM was nice to the dominated bloodrager, and just made her pay for a body recovery, not a raise dead. Everyone else died. We were a party of 5 not super-optimized characters. Other scenarios with almost same group had been cakewalks. But second fight spams the group with will save after will save after will save. And when the bloodrager fails the first save v. domination, well... I got lucky the only save I failed was to think my allies were not my allies, so I left them all to die. Not super keen on a surprise round where two casters start out with dominate. If you wanted to be that much of a jerk as an author, they could have started casting domination from where they were, so I guess it was generous of the author to give us a whole round before the spells actually went off.

If you're a min/maxed party of 6, you will probably do just fine. Or if you've somehow been warned of the encounter and get off a couple buff/protection spells, but that was not our group...
