[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 8770294, member: 42856"] It was mentionned in the OP and reiterated that the kid (at 4 years old) somehow mounted an expedition to leave his country and enter, under a false identity, the jurisdiction of his mother homeland. I am having trouble to understand why the bodyguard would go with this strange plan, but at the time of arrest, he's clearly in his mother's country, under their juridiction. I have also trouble suspending disbelief at his father the king allowing his son to... wander (can a 4 years old plan a trip, really, or even understand the concept of foreign country?) in another country under a false identity. If he wants to take his son to see his mother homeland, he could just take him on an official trip, with a certain measure of diplomatic immunity expected to prevent any legal claim against them. He's apparently the crown prince of the Kingdom of low collective wisdom. @OP: to help us understand the campaign premise, could you clarify who the PC are? The prince bodyguards? Some people hired to get the prince back? The slave-catchers? [I could see a campaign with law enforcement officer of a corrupt country that arrest the slave/crown prince, who are betrayed by their own country, which realizes he has a lot to gain from exploiting their neighbour's stupid move by claiming the boy was abducted by outlaws, say that really he should have entered under his true identity for the country to protect his guest accordingly, and mount an expedition to "free him" and appear as good neighbour, saviour of the poor crown prince, at the price of setting up a team of slave-catchers... So the PC would hunted by both country A and country B. But it could really be cut short if the PC just (sensibly) give back the crown prince to the autorithies in his own country and explain the truth... and I have trouble imagining players actually condoning child slavery and nabbing the boy in the first place.
