It might seem clunky, but there's not really a way to always be on your toes so that you're never caught flat footed. There are specific instances, but those should be handled with discretion. Lets, for example, say that a character has his bow drawn, and knocked an arrow. If he said, I'm...

I think this works. As a DM I would track your donations to the various factions in town and the kinds of options and influence you have would be entirely dependent on where you spent your money. One thing I would consider is who you don't donate to, and how that might create some jealousy in...
