CCC-CIC-05 Donum Vitae

I love the idea of this adventure. As a DM for the rune doors I would like to know do characters read the runes top to bottom left to right? An answer was not provided does this mean everyone dies except the one in the booth? Did I miss a set of runes that did have the answer. My character bartered with Taa slayed the angel and wanted back upstairs for Taa's help did not see this as a choice or option was this an oversight? Still a fun idea. platform puzzle could have used some rolls for clues.

Hello Mr. Silva, **THIS CONTAINS SOME (Minor) SPOILERS - PLAYERS DO NOT READ!**

Love the module and had a good time running it, but had a couple issues that I would appreciate if you could address regarding certain details of the adventure.

For the first puzzle, it is not clear if the statues only move if they are capable of moving to an empty platform (i.e. they do not move into an empty space/do not move if it would be where there is no platform), or if they follow "pacman rules" where they will teleport to the next platform available or the opposite side platform (e.g. move off screen right, come in from left). Following the given solution for DMs, it only works if they can only move when a platform is available to move to (and do not move otherwise). It would help if this was made clear in the text.

ALSO, in the adventure text on Page 16, the correct Final Positions of the statues is reversed (it says West has Bow, East has Greatsword, however the answer...See more key (page 29) shows the Greatsword on the West, and Bow on the Right). This caused a lot of confusion as the players are given the wrong final positions based on the text, so the solutions would not work.

Also, for 8 Queens Puzzle, the "Player Copy" of the translation (on the page title "Puzzle Four: Eight Queen Player Copy" page 35 (shouldn't this still be Puzzle 3?)) has the incorrect symbol for the letter "P" in "peace". Also the translation of the message in the adventure text (Page 18), the end of it is written as "...can we move forward", but the actual translation and answer as appears on the DM copy of the puzzle (Page 34 & 35) is "...progress can be made".

Lastly, there is no outcome given if the party believes Taa and is successful in persuading Khamseen to give the discs. When I ran this that is what the party was able to do, so was the party supposed to go back to Taa and then force him to give up the rest of the discs and fight him anyways, or would Taa be able to translate the discs so they could take that info back to the VF family, or would Taa come with them to the VF family and help translate it for them?

Thank you for any time taken to review these issues/questions and updating, it is much appreciated!

Hi! Does this series have a name? Thanks!
