Help stat out encounter for a Christmas One Shot


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I have been running the Jade Regent adventure path and the party is level 7 and travelLing over the crown of the world. We will be having a session on Christmas and they all implied they would love a little Christmas themed side quest.
I an on using the Zenith Games Deck the Halls module.
(link here)

But it is designed for level 4 party of 3-4 adventurers and I have a party of 5 level 7 adventurers.

URogue
Paladin
Winter Witch
Sorcerer
Kinetics

I am not good at going off book (this was my first time DMing) so i was hoping people might help me upgrade the encounters to fit the party level

I was thinking of making the nut crackers wood golems

And the tin soldiers some sort of clockwork construct gunslinger

Maybe giving the reindeer a Stat block of something with Trample?

Any thoughts/ideas would be appreciated
Thanks and Happy Holidays!

The simplest thing to do would be to find comparable enemies 4 CR higher than what is presented. You can do this with a combination of new creatures and the advanced template. My suggestions:

Megaloceros instead of Reindeer.
Megaloceros instead of Rudolf with Rudolf's Blinding nose attack at Fortitude DC 15.
Clockwork Soldiers instead of Tin Soldiers
Machine Soldier instead of Nutcracker with Nutcracker's Nutcracker ability
Cold Rider instead of Santa Claus
Draugr, Advanced instead of Undead Children.

Keep all the flavor the same, just use those stat blocks. That should do it!
