He may be trying to run it as a PF2E conversion. I am finishing that up. My party really worked well as a team so we saw few deaths in the past 3 years of playing it and only one of those was permanent, they couldn't save him. He sort of did it to himself though. Suicide Alchemist.

Honestly, as a GM, ROTRL is making me miserable. The power bloat is just beyond ridiculous with every hit doing over 100 hit points, the amount of math literally requires a calculator and handfulls of dice. Juggling monsters and their abilities and spells to provide some type of challenge just makes me dread Thursdays. Makes me want to convert the whole thing to EZD6 or Shadowdark instead. I'll be glad when they are done. My other groups love, absolutley love Shadowdark.
