The purpose of this thread is to clarify questions arising in this adventure. This is a SPOILER filled zone, do not venture further if you do not wish the adventure to be spoiled for you, and spoiler tags are not required when posting here. Links for the individual threads for each part are as follows:.
I want to be sure I'm handling these Haunts correctly. What are the official rules to handle Haunt destruction in this AP? Most of these have very specific conditions and it doesn't seem that anything less than implementing the research rules can give a clue, but I suppose that applies to any Haunt.
Either way I was thinking of using Dreams to hold clues to Haunt destruction. I know that after the first night outside the safe area my players are going to make sure they rest in safety in the future, but that also means they don't get clues to destroy or suppress some of these Haunts.
The book refers to Briarstone as a 'hospice' several times. Was this a typo for 'hospital'? Because I'm reasonably certain a hospice refers specifically to a place providing end-of-life care and comfort for those suffering terminal illnesses.
In this case, teminally ill likely extends to those who are mentally incapable of functioning by themselves without dying, just as we see modern Hospice facilities for those who can't usually only physically stay alive on their own merits.
A quick wikipedia sees real world Hospices were created after the Crusades for those "incurably ill" which certainly hits the theme of an asylum. Captain Battletoad Aug 18,am Revan wrote: The book refers to Briarstone as a 'hospice' several times.
Well for a lot of these people, it is end of life Seems thematic, that they must risk sanity and security for knowledge. This seems like a fun way to handle the haunts, you should definitely report back with how it goes.
Captain Battletoad Aug 18,am So how many extra random encounters do you all expect to put in here? I've set up my map my group plays online with Maptools and created what I believe to be enough NPC tokens for the first session, but given that a lot of encounters involve creatures already encountered lots of ghouls it's hard to gauge just how much combat they'll be getting in, and how much of their time in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download will occupy.
I will be adding Sanity to this campaign which should be fun. In search of sanity pathfinder pdf download minor tweaks I will be adding is making the safe rest area cure 1 point of sanity damage a night, and sleeping in a non safe area deals 1 point of sanity damage. I have also adjusted the mad scientist numbers a tad bit to make them less damning in the beginning when there is little to no way to heal sanity 1d4 for extract and 1d6 for mutagen, as opposed to 1d6 and 1d8.
I will definitely report how it goes. I tend to put extra encounters in when they miss xp. If the situation calls for a random encounter to boost moral then I do so then. It's really a fluid art. Sometimes I never use them, sometimes I use them a lot. If we are near the end of the session and the group is like xp away from level I just throw them something fun so they can level between sessions. Yeah, but the adventure also stresses that Briarstone actually had a really good track record of curing its patients, all told, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download, whereas hospices start from the assumption that there's not really a way to treat their patients anymore.
Captain Battletoad Aug 18,am John Ryan wrote: I will be adding Sanity to this campaign which should be fun. Removing madness in the safe area is a way to enable my player's Mad Scientist, who uses heavy sanity damage on itself, and until level 3 or 4 the party won't have any way of curing it otherwise.
The fourth player is still trying to decide what to make. We will hopefully play session 1 this weekend or the weekend after, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download. The AP uses a bunch of terms interchangeably, even though they aren't: Hospice, hospital, sanatorium and asylum are all different institutions. I think it was a writing choice to use these different terms, instead of having to use every time asylum.
Captain Battletoad Aug 18,am Is anybody here running this online? I'm trying to decide if I should make a quick map for the opening with Tatterman or if I should just RP it and send them an image of what they see when he emerges from the mist. Also, how are you guys doing your dream sequences? It should be pretty simple online since I can just bring each individual into a separate channel with me one at a time while I tell them about their dream, but I can't decide if the dreams should in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download more interactive than they sound in the module they seem kind of "sit back and enjoy the ride"-like as opposed to giving the PCs something to do during their dreams.
I am running on Roll 20, I plan on having the dream be in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download verbal, and if they pass the perception checks I will share a premade image with the blood on the walls, growing as each pc dies. The final thing they will see is a close up of the Tatterman. When they wake up I will reveal the first map, which will be the cell area.
The freeform non map will give them more room to do stuff, and it will be a bit more creepy. Captain Battletoad Aug 18,am 5 people marked this as a favorite. That's probably what I'm going to go with.
Additionally, I'm thinking about having the main option for determining haunt weaknesses be discovered through dreams, specifically whichever of the players happens to have The Observer dream determined by dice in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download per player, with maybe some hand waving if none of them get itand having the ancient Keleshite woman deliver the clue in moderately easy riddle form.
For example, with the Argus Wall, maybe have Tolman tell the players not to attack the wall since it'll upset the children, and when they ask him if he has any ideas on how to get rid of it, have him say "I don't know, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download, maybe sleep on it. So since the only thing that the eye can't see is itself, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download, that might point the PCs towards finding a mirror or some way to reflect its image.
This will all be delivered verbally, with no repeats and no text. Since it's a dream, it should be fairly vague and it will be up to the player to record and interpret the dream.
In this case, that will possibly cause the PCs to misinterpret "fowl" as "foul" which is fine by me. So on Page 27 I think reading pdffor room C4 with the bird haunt, the treasure seems I imagine that this is an error and that this will be updated?
I don't understand your question. The gear that you find is on the bodies that are in the room. Okay GMs, here is something you'll each want to decide how to adjust for:. Zandalus is listed as having a phrenic pool of 3; however, it should actually be 0.
He has the abomination discipline, which uses his Charisma instead of Wisdom. Since he is the part of the final encounter and is a psychic, you'll likely want him to have some kind of phrenic pool. Perhaps switching his Wisdom and Charisma scores is the easiest solution.
Whoops, that was my bad I guess I somehow in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download over that paragraph?
Sorry about that. In the Horror Adventures book the lesser madness Fugue has some penalties with it. What you want to do with the sanity and madness system is up to you and your group, but I wanted to drop in and clarify that the fugue state that the PCs are in is a unique condition and is not meant to be the same madness from Horror Adventures.
Personally, I wouldn't throw too many negatives at the PCs in the first adventure. There are things that are hard enough to deal with in that adventure that the PCs kinda need whatever they can get to help out.
I agree, early levels are so deadly, but my group really wants sanity. I have been going through all the rules and tweaking them a bit, lowering the amount of sanity damage they can take, and providing a source of healing for low levels The safe sleeping area.
I plan on increasing it to normal levels later on with the hand wave of "Well, your minds were still adjusting so things shocked you less, now that you are stable you are more vulnerable" or something like that. I also increased it to 20 pt buy so they could round out their mental stats for better sanity scores, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download. On an unrelated note, what would you say is your favorite encounter in the book?
Man, that's tough. Wes put soooo many in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download up, freaky encounters in this one. I really like the opening scene, and wish I could the faces of players when they experience it. The characters start ready to go, and most likely will have a scrape or two from in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download rats and zoog before coming across the survivor encampment. Again, what am I missing? They don't have to do it all in one day, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download, so they can sleep outside of the chapel at least once, forcing them to experience nightmares.
There is one dopple running around that is aware of their escape where does she eventually go anyway? There aren't a lot of places to hide. I may be a bit of a hardass, but where could they safely sleep? Also, back to my main point, one of these baddies is a real tough cookie for a 1st level group. They could sleep down in the furnace with a rotating shift to keep watch or something, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download.
Plus, the module does say that you can talk your way into the chapel before killing the doppelgangers, you just won't be able to progress with Winter until you do.
Veldan Rath wrote: I feel like I am missing something here. Great point, but the easiest solution is right in front of them. They can just walk north from the barricade into B11, grab the 3 dead doppelganger bodies there removing any evidence that the guards killed themand drag them back to the barricade. You might want to make it a bit harder on them by having York question them at the barricade about how they got those bodies so fast, etc.
The biggest question for me is honestly how that viol got there of all places. In search of sanity pathfinder pdf download wonder if there's any special if you keep it with you through the last book. We are using sanity, in search of sanity pathfinder pdf download, and Horror rules.
So, we ran our first session, it was a short one though. Player's loved the dream sequence, and they managed to scare off the good Doppleganger. The sent a familiar up into the Boiler Roomwhich agrod the Zoog and Dire rats, we use the Paizo crit hit and fumble decks, and the Zoog nat 1'd and hit itself so it was bleeding with no way to heal itself.
The familiar fled back down the shoot, and they plugged the hole with some rubble and a table. They then went upstairs and found the guards and York who told them to kill some Doppelgangers, that is unfortunately where we had to stop.
For the sanity rolls I had the PCs roll a save when Scaen murdered Campre since it mentions that it's brutal and violent. Two failed, the Wizard took 3 damage which doesn't give an insanity, and the Barbarian took 4 damage giving him a Delusion. I gave him the delusion that taking keys from somebody will inevitably lead to someone's death. Fun, doesn't really hurt the party.
