So, I'm trying to run this campaign for a group on Roll20. We're still in the first module and I'm trying to get things planned ahead accordingly. However, I'm having trouble getting the map for the Asmodean Knott formatted to evenly fit on the grid.

Does anyone have an image that's turned and resized to fit properly or any advice on how to do it?

I'm trying to use official maps as much as I can and between it's size and the fact that it's tilted ever so slightly in the official map book and the module I simply can't seem to get it to fit.


Looking for any advice:

I'm starting a Council of Thieves game soon and, the way the group of PCs is shaping up, and with our own little twist on the campaign, I don't see a good enough reason that the PCs will accept as why they should join Robahl Nonan's theater troupe to perform "The Six Trials of Larazod."

We're pretty agreed to kinda remove a PFS presence from the campaign and replace, when it's necessary, the PFS with The Darklight Sisterhood.

So, if they're not going to join Robahl Nonan's theater troupe in order to get an invite to Aberian Arvanxi's estate (to sneak around and get a key to Delvehaven), Why Else could they want to join Robahl Nonan's theater troupe in order to get an invite to Aberian Arvanxi's estate?

Many THANKS in advance!


@HidingDM: It is too bad that your group won't preform the play. I didn't know how it was going to work as a pbp, but it did and it was a lot of fun!

As for your question on how they might get hired on by Robahl and in return get an invite to the Lord-Mayor. Hmmm...Would Robahl hire them as security? Putting on a murder play is not the safest thing to do so hence- security. That way you can have no-name GM PC's as the actors and someone tries to sabotage the play in the most deadly manner and your PCs intervene and defeat the saboteur's plans. This way they save the day, and in so doing, get the mayor's invite.

Plus it still gives you a chance to RP some of the play acting.

Just my suggestion.


This is really helpful, thanks.

If they don't like the idea of becoming actors in Robahl Nonan's theater troupe, maybe they'll agree to be actor/security.

I'm also thinking about reflavoring him so that he's not such a jerk. I can just see a group of PCs being talked down to, condescended to, and belittled/berated, and just decide to murder-hobo the prick.

Robahl Nonan could ask them to be actors/security because he's afraid The Bastards of Erebus are going to try to disrupt his play and he wants some muscle on stage.

I have skimmed over your Gameplay DM Rich, and look forward to continue reading it to see how your group handled certain scenes.
