James Jacobs & crew, seeing as the PCs will likely have a Cleric able to cast True Resurrection before the STAP ends, I'm hoping you'll add a sidebar (or more) about the possibility that the PCs cast True Resurrection on Lavinia's parents. Being noted adventurers, they may even be able to aid even if it's just to watch over the ships while the PCs disembark.
Thanks.
(Oh, and I'd like to see Penthus (sp?) return in the Abyss, though that's likely in the works already.)
I too would like to see another appearance by Penkus. My group was really intrigued by the Vanthus betrayal, and I think another reminder of Vanthus's evil would be great.
Yes, Penkus, it'd be good to see him return, perhaps as informant on the Knight version of Vanthus.
The Bard in the group has set out to avenge Penkus and in every adventure brings that point up where there's a hope of meeting Vanthus.
I guess it hasn't occurred to him that Penkus was an evil leader of the crime syndicate the Bard s so much. I suppose making Rowyn his sister (he wanted a noble background w/ complications...) distracted him from that fact...
Anyway, it turns out my "no Cleric" party won't be casting True Resurrection anyway. (They all have characters w/ swim as a class skill because they know the dangers of drowning and knew this would be a pirate adventure.)
I generally go with the theory that Good NPCs are enjoying the afterlife so have no reason to return. Especially if Farshore saved and established, which would be there main unfinished business to return for.
