I remember playing an Orc Witch Doctor (I think there was an Ogre, a Goblin, & a Were-rat as well).
As I recall, there was a good ranger you had to face - I used him in my plot to off the Were-rat!
I think the plan went:-
1) Convince Were-rat to infect ranger.
2) During the combat, Were-rat becomes victim of "Friendly-fire".
3) After Were-rat is dead, offer ranger "potion of healing" (potion of delusion!) as peace offering.
4) While ranger was distracted, cast light in his face.
5) Help Ogre to kill ranger, then loot bodies. :evillaugh

Aug 18, 2006 8:18:20 Are you thinking of "Reverse Dungeon"? that was a stand-alone module where the payers are monsters defending a dungeon.
The adventure I'm refering to was in a magazine (prob. Dungeon, but poss. Dragon).

Aug 19, 2006 18:22:47 I remeber the module well. We had played it and then were railroaded into keeping the characters for several months. I remeber the characters but not the name of the module.

Glitch the Goblin thief / Burt the Ogre Fighter / Krosh the Witch Doctor MU / Cleric / and a wererat something.
