This was an odd adventure where the main supporting NPC, for me, was so unappealing and self-important though under-powered, that my lawful evil PC accepted the BBEG's bribe and slew her, then accepted a bribe of a much lesser value as it was over-powered.

There was less continuity in the storyline, requiring a much more active DM approach.

No complaints, but merely insight that the adventure would most likely require some adaptation on your part for comfortable game flow.

Wonderful product!!! Very challenging!!! Easy plot to fit into any campaign. I'm a power gamer that plays solo... for this adventure my PC was a 5th level Kensei Monk/1st level Stone Sorcerer/Weretiger... it took every bit of stategy, tactics and luck that I could conceive in order to survive and even then he had to run away toward the very end in order to survive... I burned out every potion of healing, magic missile wands, Ki points, spells that I had. Whew!!! I'm now looking for other products from this author!!!

Absolutely delightful adventure... very, very well designed and narrated. Oddly enough the plot suited my PC extremely well as he was Stone (Obsidian) Sorcerer & Shadow Monk... the Obsidian Dragon Longsword gifted was an absolutely perfect fit and unique that is now incorporated into my character design and backstory... Wonderful!!!

Good concept and good basis for a plot, but overpowered as far a providing very rare and rare magic items to totally inexperienced PCs. I recommend that you restock with only common magic items of the PCs choice when visiting each room then providing their choice of only one. My character selected the Fernian Ash Wand to empower all fire based damage spells. This was an appropriate distribution.

I thoroughly enjoyed the advernture, but some clarification is required...

My first run through was with 2 PCs... Bard Triton and a Druid Triton... doubling all encounters... this was comfortably challenging.

My second run through was using a single PC and it would have been deadly at almost every encounter except that my character was a Monk Wererat and immune to physical melee/ranged attacks.

Playing 2 PCs allows area of effect to assume a valuable role, increasing survivability.

I do not recommend running using a single PC.

I thoroughly enjoyed the adventure... the concept fit very well into my campaign and character concept!!!

My characters had previously been slighted by an NPC and took no precautions to protect that NPC when a critical combat situation occurred... because of that slight, the death of the NPC resulted due to our overzealous use of area of effect spells... I knew that there would be consequences for that act, but it was in character concept... this adventure was the perfect fit for those consequences.

However, some adjustments needed to be made...

The front page states the adventure is for a 15th-20th level character... I'm thinking maybe a 10th-15th level adventure for a power player.

I ran a 2 player party consisting of a 4/5 Wererat Sorlock and a 10th level Mystic and doubled every encounter... I easily overcame every obstacle and defeated every opponent, including doubling the BBEG.

I'm a power player from AD&D so my PCs already had Weapons of Warning and Periapts of Proof Against Poison making them less susceptable to sneak attacks or poison, the bread and butter of Assassins.

In addition, Speak with Dead spell (the Sorlock dabbles in Necromancy), plus a tavern owner was a Wererat, made acquiring important information about the assassins relatively easy.

I highly recommend this adventure, especially if you're running an anti-hero(s)

A wonderful adventure for a DM that rarely is able to play... I ran with 2 1st level character (Wizard & Mystic) instead of the recommendation of running just a 2nd level character... this made for a delightfully challenging adventure with minimal adjustments required while minimizing the possibility of a horrible PC death and dismemberment.

I had to run it twice in order to successfully complete the adventure and increase from 1st level to 2nd level, but left a chunk of the adventure area unexplored due to there being no challenge with 2 PCs at 2nd level.
