Hi, my players have a favorite coach in Sharn, they always use him for travel and he helped them in some ways too. They are always joking about getting him a skycoach so I wonder how much it would cost? And if it cost too much, can getting pegasus for a normal coach make it fly?
Hi, I wanted to ask who are the canonical strongest (Able to cast level 4 or 5 spells) mages, clerics or powerful spellcasters of Sharn are. I want to keep track of who are the strong mages of Sharn because currently the strongest mage of Sharn is a bbeg of my writing, a level 11 Chronurgy Wizard, and I dont think a person behind great plans wouldn't want to expose himself. So I want it to blame other great mages and try to distract party from the truth.
Hi, I'm planning to make a big fight on top of lightning train, I have assets for a lightning train but I dont have anything for rail track part. I dont want to use a normal rail track map because lightning rails are different looking and my players often remember what they saw not what I describe. I looked in internet and I couldnt find any free rail tracks, I found one that czepeku did but I dont want to pay a patreon just for that. I once had czepeku membership and downloaded all available maps but I guess they didnt include those on default lighting rail packs.
My players will face a fight next session, we left at the start of it and once they saw image of enemy they started to hype about its sword... which I didnt plan to make a thing. It looks cool with a dark blue metal and a blue dragon head figure as handle but I didnt plan it to be a magical item.
I just gave them pretty useful 2 uncommon items, one which gives them 1d8 bonus to initiative once a clockwork amulet. So I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do at this moment. I was never good with balancing encounters and they are powerful on their own, I'm afraid they will get too powerful. They are level 3, they will go to level 4 after this fight.
I'm not that good with giving items to them but giving 2 uncommon items one session, then 1 magical item and level next session would be too much IMO. But would not making this magical be a let down for them? Do I need to make this sword magical, even a small magic like "It glows near dragons" which is a pretty big thing because one of my BBEG is secretly a half-dragon.
For school reasons me and one of my players are not will be avaible for 1 month, that is a long time and we are near arc finale for my campaign. So I want them to find out a killers identity next session and fight with him on top of a lightning rail second next session where I will give them an arc finale.
The killer has a nickname "The Chariot" because of its hirers use tarots and he has a dragonmark (an magical hereditary tatto) that allows him to use trains of this world and makes him very mobile. He was tasked with killing others with other dragonmarked tattos by the villains and party is an investigation group formed to investigate these murders.
Last session after saving a bastard carrying dragonmarked they found out he wanted to meet this bastard in a place so instead party has gone to the meeting. They will not fight him there, meeting was in a temporarily closed hospital and he has his back to large glasses of building so its easy for him to escape, but how can I reveal his identity so he tries to escape the city with a train and party tries to stop him in train.
My plan is they will have an epic fight on top of the train and then we will go to a break. They already know his first name, I only need to see he is from the dragonmarked family but how can I do it? Only idea I have is that while he escapes they see glass ripping his knee part of pants and revealing his dragonmark but seeing that would be pretty hard and it feels too railroading?
And a bonus question, party argued a little last session and all of them thinks they will go their own way after catching him, how can I hint them that there is bigger persons behind and this murders were just the beginnings?
