[QUOTE="Darthjaye, post: 1882423, member: 16789"] No your not. This is coming from the player side of things. Firstly, as pointed out previously and numerously, the party should have been on their toes. They relied too much on someone else to get things done in this instance. Some may say they weren't paranoid enough about a group they barely knew offering a helping hand with no real costs. Secondly, never, i repeat, never as a player trust the hard earned artifact (ARTIFACT!!!) you fought so hard to find, with someone you don't know from Adam (whomever ever the heck he is). Thirdly/est/ish, you as the GM deserve to have a little fun. They need to understand it's not just for their entertainment. They just get up, wipe themselves off, and either go get even with them little bastichs or move on. Me, i say revenge is a dish served cold and often. Find em, plug em, raise and plug em just to get the point across. They duped them and made it somewhat personal by befriending them. As the great Jesse Ventura once said "I ain't got time to bleed" which i can only surmise, after writing it, is two things: One-my brain may have just have a fart, and Two-dust yourselves off and go get your artifact back (and your reputation, cause if anyone else finds out this happens, your gonna hate bards!!). Speaking of which, can you use locate/ discern/ commune type spells to find a artifact you had in your possesion? Hell if my GM (coyote6) had pulled that off he'd have laughed at us when we figured out what happened. And i mean laughed at us to our faces. That doesn't mean he's a bad guy, just that he knows a good laugh/ blunder when he sees one. Hope that helps....rub the salt in!!! ;) [/QUOTE]
