| - | This scenario assumes the PCs intend to directly investigate the farmstead. You can easily expand the scenario, adding more regions to the 1F area for PCs to explore. For instance, you could add a maze of crops that features [[analects_book_4_part_2_chapter_2#whispers_of_madness|Whispers of Madness]] and becomes suddenly blocked by an [[analects_book_4_part_2_chapter_2#overgrown_paths|Overgrown Path]] upon entering, though it holds an additional Fortune secreted away for brave PCs to discover. | + | This scenario assumes the PCs intend to directly investigate the farmstead.

| With five players, lower the Respawn timers for the Rats to 1. Consider adding some more Obstacles, such as [[analects_book_4_part_2_chapter_2#daunting_corridor|Daunting Corridors]] or [[analects_book_4_part_2_chapter_3#haunted_passage|Haunted Passages]] at some of the B1 unblocked exits.

Triggering the Deep Pits Trap should cost the PCs a Stealth Token (and any Torch Bearers should head that way to investigate the collapse regardless), and bashing down doors shouldn't be an option without automatically failing (nor should illuminating underground passages except with sources like a Wax Candle). |
