[DL] The Devil's Tower Trilogy *spoilers*



as the header said

*ADVENTURE SPOILERS AHEAD*

(The Devil's Tower Trilogy)























your only ruining your own fun you know..

























actually I think we say no players beyond this point just to be sure....























I'm running The Devil's Tower Trilogy, they are just past the first part in 
Salt Lake and on their way to Lost Angels. At the moment I have them 
trapped at Overlook Hotel, but in a few sessions they will be moving on. 
The thing is, I have been GM'ing these players for 3 years, and even though 
they have never met Stone, they sure as hell have heard of him (well, 
actually they have met him, but that was in a dream scenario.. long story). 
The characters they are playing now on the other hand have never heard the 
name. But when the time comes and they are asked by Old Pete to rescue 
Stone from the prison, they are gonna guess the plot right away even though 
their characters won't, which kinda ruins the feel. I've been trying to 
figure out how to change it without messing up the entiere plot, but I have 
to say I'm out stomped at the moment. Any ideas on how to dupe my players 
as well as their characters? Have any other marshals experienced the same 
thing? How did it turn out? The only thing I've though of so far is to have 
them run into some Guardian Angels and give them feel that they are so bad 
anyone who oppose them has to be a good guy in one way or another, but I'm 
not sure how well it will work.

The adventure in it self is good as long as the players don't know who 
Stone is. When they do though, I fear the entiere thing will be the case of 
"let's do what we're expected to do even though we're walking into a trap".
