Wrath of the Accursed question *Spoilers*

[Zach Davis]

I'm prepping this for this coming Saturday, and in Hondo Heru's tactics it states that he casts "Improved Invisibility" before the fight. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious but I'm not aware of, and wasn't able to locate "Improved" Invisibility. Was this intended to be Greater Invisibility?

[Zach Davis]

Also just so I'm clear the Girdle of Opposite Gender is not a condition that needs to be cleared correct? If a player ends up changing gender the change is permanent until such time as curse removing magic is used to reverse it, but is not a condition that would necessitate the casting of the spells in order to prevent being marked as dead.

[Muser]

You answered both of your questions! Gratz.

When I ran this the players absolutely hated fighting Hondo. There was no ranged character besides a fire sorc who didn't dare blast in the smallish boss room. It took ages, especially with cloudkill in play.

[Zach Davis]

Ok thanks. Just making sure I was understanding it correctly. I think Hondo is going to be a pretty tough fight for my group as well.

The descripiton of the mechanics of the Girdle, at the top of the second column of p17 seem to indicate it is a permanent condition that does not involve the character being dead.

As for the spell, yes, I believe the 'Improved' is intended to be 'Greater'.

This was a great scenario. It was a lot of fun to run, and the players really enjoyed it. The encounters can be challenging though. The rogue in the ambush killed a PC, and the druid lost their pet in the fight with Hondo. Fortunately the player has the prestige to get a raise dead. The gender bending item actually served to release a little tension as the druid realized his mistake in putting it on.We didn't have time for the optional encounter as the investigation ran rather long. Our group really liked this.
