> I never would have expected Jethro to have fallen victim to a cockatrice. It is a perfect exotic type monster for a low level dungeon party to encounter though(I'm trying to recall if you needed magic weapons to hurt it though).

Normal weapons work fine on them in 2nd Edition, which is what we were playing.

Incidentally, the first dungeon party I ever played in encountered one of these beasties, described by the DM as "a friendly little hen-type creature". On of our party, the fighter Majikthius, threw it some grain, and when the thing seemed happy with that, patted it on the head. And that was the end of Majikthius and the start of a long-running joke.

> Also, I think you did miss a scene (or my memory is really bad): did we see the ranger/cleric guy use turn undead on any shadows?

If you only read the first version of chapter one then you did miss this scene. It was the moment that Rhi and Alex noted was missing, and I amended it accordingly a few days back.

> Looking forward to finding out who killed the Thane.

I expect I'll have to write some more now.
