I saw that some folks here have played The Sky-blind Spire (a wonderfully odd map and adventure by +Michael Prescott), and was wondering if I could check on a couple details before I (hopefully) run it myself with Into the Odd next weekend….

SPOILERS follow!

So … I hope someone can tell me….
(A) Am I correct in understanding that to get to room 22, you have to climb out the window from 21 and climb down a floor to the window below? And to get to 23, same deal, out the window and down a floor?
(B) Since you have to go up the changeling cone to keep your spark, is anybody who keeps their spark necessarily shrunk by 50% for the rest of the adventure?
(C) Do you suspect this is playable in a 4-hour one shot?
Any other tips are welcome too – thanks!
B) They can grow by climbing back down.
C) I got through it in about 3 hours

(A) Yes! That would be clearer if the map was a little bigger and I hadn’t stubbornly drawn all the floor numbers.
(B) You could go down the changeling cone first, return to room 1, then go up it. 😛

So how many times do I have to run the changeling cone loop before I’m bigger than those giants, I wonder….
Thanks, folks. 🙂

Jason Tocci I think twice would be plenty! But it goes through their bedroom. 😛

We did an early episode of FoaBD about this adventure, though I don’t recall if we discussed these specific issues.

Jason Tocci That episode is what convinced me to run this! And you guys did mention climbing out windows, which is what alerted me to that fact – I just wanted to make sure I had the right windows. 🙂
