My thieving players have rounded up some independent thieves, scoundrels and assorted scum to form a band of cutthroats. With some expert help by other hirelings who have joined in they have been raging war in the back alleys of the city with the halfling thieves guild.
Between being hooligans and those special hobos the thieves have managed to upset to various degrees the nobility and constabulary.
So how to bring all this to a fitting conclusion? A field battle does not feel appropriate. A massive brawl in the city streets is out of place with all the eyes looking for them. The players do not want to go into the sewers where the small halflings would have advantage within the confines of the smaller pipework.
What type of venue would best serve as a location to get the majority of both sides together at the same time so they might go at it? I would like the players to choose a locale. If you were the thieves which public place would you choose? How would you draw the halflings out?
Colosseum
Public baths
Open air laundry
Farmer's Market square
Public Square outside the Bishop's residence
In front of the castle courtyard.
Cathedral island
City park
A brothel
The players are outnumbered two to one.
