While the campaign has just started the plays have been together for some time. The location we are in is a large city. One of the ideas we came up with as evil characters is to try for a long term plan is to take over the city. While it has not been decided yet we would like to do this, for now anyway, in such a fashion as to avoid big hack and slash encounters with the city watch. The way we have thought to do this is to create a noble House, with the PCs being the primary members. And slowly take over the city in and economical and social way. Kind of like a mob would. My question is this. What do I do with my Thralls and believers? After playing a few matches with the character I have come to realize that you can’t really go around with a group of 40 or so people. Most of the time it is just not practical. While yes it works to bring your biggest baddest underling with you for a personal bodyguard, what should I do with the all the others? What do you think would be the most efficient and profitable way to use there people? The campaign is much more oriented towards social problems then massive amounts of combat. While there are a good deal of fights it is not the biggest part of the campaign. I had thought of possibly setting up some of the believers with various jobs and what not to make the House some money. A Blacksmith, Woodworker, Engineer, so on and so forth. While keeping a few around as guards and such. My character is of neutral evil alignment, if that helps. Also I’d like to hear from other Thrallheards to see what they use their Thralls and Believers for.Valor</blockquote>
