RE: Michael's RPG Shelf: Ask the Dungeon Meister (06 January 2020)

in #gaming6 years ago

The last campaign I was playing in just solved this issue by making the dungeon we were going to anyway be the tomb of horrors without telling any of us players that was the case. We were on the trail of a vampire, investigated the family lore, figured out where his tomb was probably located, and went down to find the vampire and as it turned out walked right into the tomb of horrors :joy: The problem with that was I have read the module several times so I had to (as a player in the campaign) not spoil the secret and just kinda hang back and let the other players take the lead.

Sort:  

Ha ha ha ha! Yeah, I've been in that position before, the player in possession of knowledge that his character couldn't possibly know. It's quite the challenge, but like you said, let other players take the lead, and let the chips fall where they may. :)
