WelcarThorn 02-25-08, 02:59 PM	Kind of; it's hard to explain any futher without getting too detailed. I have DM'd this adventure, a few times, and I don't believe a wizard would be in a position to have heard of it prior to becoming involved in the adventure.
Mindolin 02-25-08, 03:51 PM	Too bad. And I was going to have my plot hook already figured in.
Phrennzy 02-26-08, 01:42 AM	Perhaps the hook is that your wizard has heard of it and thinks it may be magical, thus he has come to investigate.
Mindolin 02-27-08, 12:09 AM	Yeah, that will probably work. With the way I see my character, he keeps his ears to the ground for any new magical discoveries, and a "mysterious illness that just appeared" is something that might interest him. Either do that, or play a Cleric of Hextor who demands that, in exchange for freeing the town from the oppression of the plague, he is given lordship over it.
sakuradm 02-27-08, 10:33 AM	agreed... the way i kind of thaught about it was like... think resident evil, but the plague is spread thru contact or ingestion
EaterOfTheDead 02-28-08, 05:08 PM	I am using this adventure as the springboard for my new campaign and I have to say there is little likelihood that a mage will know anyhting about it. Coming to the town to investigate thinking it may be magical is a good idea though. It's a fun little adventure, I'm interested to hear what you think once you play it.
