Thus the non-proficiency penalty and the blind fighting bonus. Like I said, I was desperate to save my character's bacon.Futures Bright,Paul

I still remember running I6 very clearly. the party were doing brilliant til they met Strahd and he wiped them all out bar one (who ran off). they were so confident too!in addition to D3 and Q1, this is one of the three modules i have ran, that i have decimated the party of characters and they utterly failed.and if the truth be told, i wasnt even trying hard - they brought about their own downfall really.Al

Ivan would provide helpful advice in a thick Romanian accent:Player One: "Hey, look at this portrait!"Player Two: "A protrait? What is it?"Ivan: "Ah, jyes...jyou see...eet eez a painting of a person." Strangely, the party did not kill Ivan to shut him up. Much fun. :lol: Mark
