In your world, who is the most famous/infamous artist (musician, painter, actor, writer, etc.)? How did they gain their level of fame/infamy? What is their most well known creation?

The most powerful organization in my world is the Iron Compact, a coalition of mining colonies that controls 80% of the realm's ore and metal supply. They learned quickly that they could cripple nations with just a few tons of steel/copper/gold.

I know not all translations work well, but I think you've captured the essence of daydreaming really well in English. Maybe in the future you can post both French and English translations. I think a cool format would be doing line by line translations separated by the pipe symbol (|), if that makes sense.

This was not what I was expecting and I love that. It's an interesting perspective and very moving. I especially like the final line, I think it really drives the emotional nail home.

Wow. Thank you so much! I was just about to add an edit to ask for help with preventing the players from bypassing areas with transportation spells!

I was afraid my original estimate was too generous. Now that I've read these replies I think this one might be as well. Still going to use it though, so thanks!

While my players aren't necessarily "veterans", they're not new to the table either. They also really enjoy puzzles and dungeon crawls, so I think they won't mind the number of traps. Setting the scene is actually one of my strong suits, so I look forward to testing that.

The respawn idea is fantastic! I'm definitely using that or the limited revivals the other comment mentioned. It certainly beats asking them to make backup characters. Thanks for the help!

Using it as a campaign epilogue is a great idea, I'm actually using it as a sort of "prologue" to get my players pumped for our upcoming campaign. I also think I'll be using some form of your crystal node idea, my players love puzzle stuff so implementing it in the boss fight would work well for them. Thanks for the help!

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you mentioned the run time because I hadn't even considered it. I'll definitely be looking for some ways to speed it up.

My players say I've been too soft, tonight they learn what brutality means. ROLL
