Just be vague enough to let you dial it up and down as needed and concrete enough for prayers to feel threatened.

You'll want to avoid your players rushing into the deadly final encounter just because they think they have to run out the clock.

This is well-calculated advice, thank you!

This is very late to all of these comments but I have to say this is all excellent advice!! I’ll absolutely be using this.

I do have a question - just confirming that there’s nothing in the book that says exactly when the reactor starts to meltdown? I’m trying to decide if the low level radiation is flooding the room as the PCs enter? Is that what you meant by escalating the timeline?

I believe you’re correct that there’s no physical pathway because Barathus would fly up. The biggest clue for me is if you look at the bridge magnified area, you can see at the top of the bubble the faded hallways and top of the integrated science lab.

My biggest wonder of this Book is why there’s no map for the control room of the Stewards complex. I get that maybe they didn’t want to draft another larger compound after Book 3, but if that’s the penultimate and climactic event with the Stewards directly l, it feels glossed over that there wouldn’t be even a small map. My thought is the real battle is at the biotech company but there’s no way for the players to know that. Guess I’ll just make one myself!

What do you mean sanctioned?
