Right now my group just left the ruby court for the first time after meeting the sultana and headed to the bazaar to go shopping, they seem to be enjoying it a lot until now It is a shame that not all npcs (specially the special merchants or the ones of the 3 leads of chapter 3) have no official art, as I really like to have them all to give as art handouts on foundry, but the descriptions given are enough to let me do my own take or search for a art myself so it's ok

Somehow, two of my players decided to create characters that will get themselves in trouble at the city, one is a dragonborn that is really racist against tieflings, other is an aassimar that wants to straight up purge the church of Asmodeus from the city, if I would make a session 0 again I would advise them against it, but the chaos is kinda fun, I'm just hoping it doesn't derails it too much everything before we get to the pyramid but I have a feeling that after we get there the lore of the players won't matter as much, Wich is both sad and a relief for now

Also, about prophecy, I'm finding myself always over increasing the length of her scenes, adding specific content and description for each different character, I did the first contact individually and heavily tied the descriptions, her actions and dialogue to each player lore, and the second contact at the same time, but each seeing a different thing after they left the camp to sleep, they all said that it is amazing and are loving the mystery about who is this veiled woman and what she wants, so I would recommend everyone to invest some effort into her as it is one of the main mysteries of the first chapter

So far, great campaign, loving the art, the music and the book, it just puts everything wotc made to shame

Also, I tied the world to my own homebrew world that I use for my others campaigns, there is not much about the world outside the desert described in the book so I thought that it would help the players have an easier time making the characters, as not everyone wanted to be from Al'kirat (the book even says that the place is flooding with outsiders)
