An adventure inside Randall's Demesne with Randall around turned out at least somewhat challenging, despite his ability to talk to everything. I will admit that Houndmaster Skala with his superior Control Animal and high charisma was designed to counter Randall's Control Animal when I realized it would probably be him coming to the hound protected lodge. Against any other character he would have been just a tanky undead who kept the hounds fighting rather than running. I'll be including more things like him, just in case Randall is on missions.

The party ended up getting a little sidetracked by a whole nest of ogres.

Searching for more information about the lay of the land around the bugbear crag, the party ends up ambushing a patrol, but when the ambush doesn't get surprise, the battle is far more even than intended.
