Time to kill before the assault on Wee Jas.


Shackled City Adventure Path


Hi,

My players are planning to spend approx 25 days out of site, since the attempted assassination by the assassins, so they two of character can make magic items for the themselves and the party. THe party is probably 1 and 1/2 lvls below what they are supposed to be for this stage of the adventure.

Does anyone have any suggestions on combat situations i could throw at the player while they wait? I can use the 1/2 dragon dude as one. Would the assassins strike again? Does Wee Jas cause issues within the town so the PC's have to react? Maybe the Last Laugh could get involved and start steal from the shop owners? More trouble below the city? Other suggestions?

Cheers

I would not do anything. I guess you have more than 4 pc's in your party ?
If it's the case well I think it's OK if they are 1 or 2 level lower than it's recommanded in the AP.


Yes, theirs is 5 in the party, they will probably get some help from Jenna in buffing them up.

The main concern is that one of the players is a thief and relys heavily on sneak damage. With all the undead helping Ike, its going to be difficult for him...though he can be the one to concentrate attacks on ike. :)

I would definitely have the assassins take another crack at the PCs, at the least. At the least, they'll be looking to cash in and to get back at the characters for whatever wounds they received. Maybe they've even picked up some backup if your PCs had too easy of a time the first go around.


The assassins killed 1 player instantly and took the other past -10, but he has a feat that takes him back to -9 one per day. The rest of the part dimensioned door away. I dont think any of the assassins actually got hit. If i attacked again, i think the PC's would struggle, esp if buffed by Ike. I played it as a one off attempt. Maybe down the track the cagewright leaders might send them out again... :)
