I am working on the assumption that you have MPD.
You right the stuff like the Confirmation.
Care Baird writes the stuff like The Sealed Gate.It's the only thing that makes sense. :)
Confirmation nearly TPK'd our group in the first encounter. If we hadn't had two people who had a single session under their belt and could therefore afford certain crucial gear it would have been the end of all of us. If we had all been new level 1's we would have been utterly doomed.
To be fair we were largely a group of planetouched looking to be grandfathered in so maybe that would have been a good thing. We did just manage to survive and no-one even died. We dubbed the caves incompetent necromancer central on the basis that one of them appeared to have been eaten by his own minions.
One of the things the GM is supposed to do as Janira, during the intro section, is check to see if the party is equipped to handle certain kinds of encounters, so the GM knows if he needs to reroll or not.
Last time I ran it, I almost rerolled, but someone had purchased certain equipment. And, to be honest, there were a couple of PCs who had done some very ... unbalanced .... purchasing with their starting funds. All money spent on chainmail and a greatsword? Seriously?
Heck, I had one of the PCs have to keep changing his mind on what he spent his last few gold on, as he was running a Cleric, but hadn't purchased either a Holy Symbol or a Spell Component Pouch.
