[Meta Thread] Dragonstrike's Pokerole Test Game: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Dragonstrike]

Caught up on the posts , and it seems Dragonstrike is practicing up the more clever and dickish side of being a DM. Shadow Hold and Perish Song Combo , and enforcing it despite Absol all but ending the Encounter? Me thinks you're bending the rules of the corebook  a wee bit too much to make the fight a challenge or ordeal, mate. If you're worried about that, the Mystery Dungeon is already a drain enough on our resources to make it a fair challenge, and we're all on a clock anyway until The Wind forces us out, so....yeah.

Slight Spoiler: it's harder because it's the last encounter of the floor, and because you guys have means to heal everyone back to full in between floors.  Absol aren't very bulky normally, so I decided to try an experiment to make it challenging in another manner.

Despite partially being a result of a 'but what if I did...this?' kind of idea, I wouldn't have created such an encounter if there wasn't a way to bounce back from it should things not work in your favor (in this instance, due to this being a test game). I don't want to be too jerkish, after all.
