Hello everyone.
I'm GMing a Jade Regent game for some friends. They just finished the second module and the next adventure should be the Baleful Coven... personalized. That means completely rewritten. Actually, I'm toying with the idea of having the adventure taking place in the Dimension of Dreams.
My Goti Runecaster was a male changeling (built with Race Points, still less improbable than a half spriggan half troll) necromancer wizard. Of course, his mother is a night hag. And he has a sister and a niece. The sister's father would be a jadwiga and the sister herself would be a changeling winter witch, while the niece would be a witch 1/psychic X.
I like the idea of a classic coven formed by Maiden, Mother and Crone.
All these creatures should have an affinity for dreams - the jadwiga would have also the archetype Dreamweaver witch, and the psychic would have the Dream discipline.
The coven should be able to cast "dream travel", or to create a portal to the Dimension of Dreams, or whatever...
The girl, the psychic caster, would create and mantain a dreamspace, while the mother and the hag would protect her and fight the PCs. But I'm a bit at a loss here.
The Dimension of Dreams is not clearly detailed in the manuals, especially regarding the physical travel in a dreamscape. In this case it is not suitable to trap the party ino the dreamscape as dreamers, because you can't actually die while dreaming (something different is said in Horror Adventures: some supernatural nightmares allow death to occur even in the waking world, but it does not develop the argument); also, if the coven wants vengeance on the party for the death of their relative, and the party is sleeping, the coven could esaily coup de grace them all...
But I'm also quite puzzled about ending up in the dreamscape with physical bodies. If they end up in the dreamscape of the girl, she could simply wake up - and leave the party stranded in the Ethereal Plane, and getting back would be complicated to say the least.
So I'm asking for suggestion to develop the idea in a coherent way.
The party consists of a magus, a sorcerer, a slayer, a druid and an alchemist, all 7th level. They travel with a lot of NPCs (ten, right now) that may or may not end up in the dreamscape with them.
I'm also not sure on what they could find in the dreamscape. Really, I welcome any suggestion.
