[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8602243, member: 20564"] Well, not publicly. They have spread rumors in private, and have taken care in doing so to both hide who they are and even that these are specifically targeting the duke - giving them much harder DCs to meet. And they have. Oh, they already are under a death sentence for threatening to kill the rightful head of the Imperium, the Emperor-Regent. Whom legally got himself install above the Child-Empress they are sworn to. Even though the party calls him the Ursurper, he his legal, and this duke is one of his strongest supporters. They are 8th level. An oinoloth is only CR 12, if they were in their teens this would be a cakewalk. And they didn't walk into town, they snuck into town, having used disguises, forged identity papers, and false names since they passed the border over a week ago. Much of the time they were also under the effects of an item that prevented scrying. None of that was detailed in the post because it wasn't really relevant until the point came up assuming they were doing things overtly, which is not true at all. They have been extremely covert. Most of their prep has taken place outside the capital. There is no indication that a powerful adventuring band is even in the duchy - the one combat thing they have done was eliminating to a man a zombie plague outbreak. There was a single civilized survivor, a halfling farm-hand who (a) was extremely grateful for his life, and (b) there is a halfling folk-hero in the group he wouldn't betray. While in town they kept a low profile. When I said they did their prep very well, I was not kidding. [/QUOTE]
