The Hangover - Black Raven and the others keep out!


Rise of the Runelords

Sovereign Court

So ...

I have this group of unusually Colourfull PCs ...

Quite a few of them being Lusty and having just completed "Burnt Offerings". (I'll post about them someday, but it'd be difficult to avoid spoilers just now).

"Jeu de Role magazine" French RPG mag has in its latest issue an adventure loosely inspired by "The Hangover" movie.

I feel it could work well for my team, but would need more adaptation to work.

So : GIVE ME IDEAS

Spoiler:

The published adventure involves the PCs waking drunk in a brothel, along with a 600 pounds drunk orcish sacred hog.

Along the way, one of the PCs has married the goth noble necromancer, one has married the Orc Chieftain daughter, after ransacking a legitimate Alchemist shop. They are wanted by the constabulary, one of them has disappeared, and they don't remember anything.

So Help me improve from this start !

How should Caydan Cailan Smile on Them ?

Sovereign Court

Just to clarify : I'd have this happening in Magnimar, just after "The Skinsaw murders".

Sovereign Court

Also, while I'd like this part to be as wild as possible, I do not want it to derail the whole of the campaign. Comic relief is good, as long as it is only relief.

Sovereign Court

I was also toying with the idea of replacing orcs with Shoantis. To fit more the local flavour.

What would it entail ?

Grand Lodge

They wake up with a Firepelt Cougar or some other rather scary beasty, that is actually the Animal Companion of a Shoanti Druid (and leader of a local band of Shoanti tribesmen.)

One of them has married the chieftan's daughter that was betrothed to the son of a chief of another tribe.

All the while, high on Pesh from a dealer in the Bazaar of Sails!

Sovereign Court

That's good, and it helps me replace the orc embassy, and I did not think about the Druid Animal companion. Kudos. Shoanto embassy it is.

So it takes care of that part, but that's not quite nasty enough for the whole.

Anyone else ?

What else misfortune could happen to them ?

One is married to the Shoanti chieftain daughter. (I guess this will be the Elfling).
One has the noble Goth Necromancer wannabe vampire chick (This should be the noble).

What happens to the planetouched bard ?
What happens to the two feys ?
What happens to the already-amnesic Azlant wizard ?
What happens to the warforged druid (yes they have one ...) Being drunk and high won't work on him ...

At the end of the story, I'd like to have the mayor send them to Fort rannick, just hoping to get rid of them.

Planetouched Bard/Two Feys - performed naked at a prominent noble's party as the Fey (wearing only flowers) frolicked on the buffet table, all while severely inebriated...

Azlant Wizard - challenged a prominent wizard to some kind of challenge of cunning, maybe one that involves leaving arcane marks/triggered illusions around the city, but being that he is a little amnesiac, he simply forgot. Imagine his confusion when these things keep popping up!

As for the Warforged Druid, well, he's just going to have to be the one that went missing! Though I am stumped as to how to keep him involved through the adventure...

Sovereign Court

Yeah, he is on of the problem ones ... but possibly he went to the girls night out, along with the extra-chaste most holy pure virginal priestess of Sarenrae ?

And then the two of them knock on the door of the room of (the rest of the team) early morning after a night of prayer and fasting in the local shrine and see them ... just recovering (to say it mildly).

I can imagine dialogues like "Yes, I Know she is Evil. Quite EVIL ! in fact. I should definitely cast Holy Smite on her! And Maybe try a Turn Undead just to be sure ... But, Hey, you married her, and marriage is an holy vow ...."

Honestly, I would not pull this on anyone's character, but I believe my current team can handle this. Might even get quite a few good laughs.

I like the idea for the fairies. In Fact I envision the pixie waking up quite drunk, half blocked in the cork of a still full bottle of Absinth.

Anyones else has ideas ? I reckon I have about one month to go before I pull this off ... If I pull it at all. It needs to be fireproof, as I reckon it could potentially be touchy to some players, even though this is comedy.

Sovereign Court

There's also the part in the adventure as written, where they insult a noble (who then hires mercenaries to teach them a lesson ...)

And they play cards against the local Maffia boss.

An ideas on these also ? any clues welcome.

Sovereign Court

Hiya all !

Bump ???

Whatever happens in Magnimar ... is gonna be resolved in two sessions !

Sovereign Court

THE STARS ARE RIGHT ! (The Hangover 2 is due out soon)

/Casts "Thread Necromancy III"

MWAHAHAHA

MMM, we should resume my campaign soon after a hiatus of a few months for Serpent Skull.

I have sorted most of the issues involving my group's cast.

The scenario is adapted, the enemies are statted ... all good.

Now : if you had to run such a scenario, yourself, what twist would you add ?

Remember : What happens in Magnimar ... might not stay in Magnimar !

Come on folks ! gimme some ideas. Especially wild and crazy ones.
