[QUOTE="Gilladian, post: 4032175, member: 2093"] I wouldn't start over, but what you might do is try offering them the opportunity to go to work for someone. Possibly somebody is impressed with their work breaking up the smuggling and offers them a job as investigators of some sort. Or as escorts to an important function, or to go on a retrieval mission. You pick the scenario, and offer it to the PC's; it'll give them a stronger motive to stay together - the reward and the clear cut mission goal - and it allows recurring jobs so as to create a thread of plot. At the same time, if they don't like a mission, they're still able to decline it. I'm also very fond of the "timeline" idea mentioned in the sandbox thread. Create a world calendar. Load it with holidays, political events, adventure seeds (that falling asteroid?) and character background hooks (did someone run away from home? When will the searchers from home arrive to find them?). This helps tie things together. [/QUOTE]
