Raistlin84 08-17-04, 01:05 PM	Hi I'm currently making a campaing with a group of 4 lvl 8 pc in the North and the first quest I want to give them is to get them involved with the war between Mithral Hall and Obould's army. I will make them arrive there just in time to see Obould's victory, then they will have to flee for their life and try to help out. This quest should get them to lvl 9 or 10, but after that I have no idea what quest I should give them. I could send them in some ruins of some sort, but I'd really like to get them involved with some phaerimm threat, but they are too low lvl for that. So I'd like to know what plot hooks you used when you made a game in the North, it might give me a good idea to lvl them up so I can make a quest about a phaerimm threat after. Thanks for your help.

They could be an Oboulds brute squad to "recruit" random orcs/goblinoids and giants. Also they are to take out any huminoids they come across. If you want it to be abit more neccessary to get rid of them, I would have had the brute squad find a powerfull magic item that could help obould win the war. But if the party get's ahold of it they can use it to help against Oboulds army. Make it that attacking this squad would be death if done toe to toe, gorilla tactics would work best. 8th lvl is pretty low to have them fighting Phaerimm's. What you could do is have them fight some shade's that will end up leading them to the plot line and problems the Phaerimm's are ensueing. Hope this helps:D :D

The Phaerimm will probably think them unworthy of their time and effort, and thus send out some of their minions - which can be any level. The more powerful the PC's get, the more powerful foes the Phaerimm sends after them, and evetually they will encounter one of the powerful Razorbacks themselves :smirk:

If they are still twiddling their thumbs in a tavern they might recive a letter or something from an aquaintance or some such in Nesme. Of course when they get there Nesme is toast but they learn that some refugees escaped to Mithril Hall and go there to see if they can find their friend. That gets them into the war. I don't know much about Phaerimms but what Tempus665 and paradoxmage said sounds pretty good.

And I remember some side note about a rogue phaerimm feeding on the "mythal" of silverymoon, if they head that way to seek help from some of the powerful figures there, you could imcorporate that into the scenario. I'll be back soon to give you the article, i believe it was online with the idea.
