[QUOTE="Vyvyan Basterd, post: 5163615, member: 4892"] [B]The Shopkeep's Daughter[/B] [I]The next day the group was approached by Shayliss Vinder. She went straight to Swift and fawned over him as she thanked the group for saving the town. She asked if Swift could come take care of a rat problem in the "wine cellar" of her father's general store. The rest of the group offered to come, but she insisted that it was nothing that Swift couldn't take care of on his own. Her overzealous fawning panned out just as Swift thought it might as Shayliss' bodice slipped off as soon as she had him in the cellar. He politely pushed her advances away as her father, Ven Vinder walked down the cellar stairs, catching Shayliss unaware and exposed. Swift tried to talk his way politlely out of the situation, but Ven would hear none of it. He told Swift to never return to his store. Quite a bit of gossip has arisen from the "ladies' man" hero accosting innocent young Shayliss in her father's cellar.[/I] This was a short, but difficult Skill Challenge. Especially for the "default ladies' man." But since I knew failure only carried a penalty of -2 to Diplomacy and Streetwise checks, two skills the "default ladies' man already severely lacked, I let the difficulty of the encounter stand. Besides, I still award XP for failed Skill Challenges. I mean, Swift did learn something from the whole encounter anyway. [/QUOTE]
