Hey y’all!
I have a player leaving for the Marines and this weekend is the last time we get to play with him. We are throwing him a surprise party with a cake that looks like crayons. Haha
Anyway, he wanted to make sure he played with us one last time. He has a level 17 Fighter (Champion). Even though he is a champion, he still pretty powerful and can dish out a lot of damage. He is a ranged build. We tend to lean to more deadly games (though I don’t wish to see his character die… I want him to leave a legacy. But feel well earned… which is what he wants).
He told me on the side that he would love a chance to become the head of the fighters guild in Waterdeep. At level 17 I think that this should be very doable. He never got around to joining until recently though. So my question: what ideas do y’all have for a high a challenging, epic adventure to send him on so he can become the head of the fighters guild? I’m looking for a worthy/challenge for a highly optimized group (he’s a champion but he is still “optimized” and has a some potent magic items). His focus is ranged. I don’t want a “give me” challenge for him. He doesn’t either. He wants to earn it. So deadly encounter but doable. Of course I can help from behind the screen if needed but I try not to do that much. Again spotlight on him but something everyone will want to join in on. We will have a big group playing. We have a pick up group and a lot will be there to say goodbye. Probably 7-9 players. I’m a veteran so I can handle it, though not my favorite. But this is a special event so I will accommodate the number of players.
Paladin, wizard, cleric, druid, ranger (UA version), fighter, and barbarian (plus others).
Again. Looking epic, hard but doable and rewarding, and something everyone will be involved and needed while putting spotlight on him.
Thoughts???
