[QUOTE="aco175, post: 5477123, member: 27385"] I would 2nd the point of getting your players on board with years of imprisonment and not being able to do anything about it. Maybe have a few adventures in prison. I would have a few spaced out encounters that span the years, but this would just be the 5-minute day over and over again. Maybe you can have the prison need adventurers for something and have them go to the basement, or the graveyard to deal with things the guards would rather have prisoners being killed over. This could lead to an attempt on escape when they try and hide weapons and gear they find. Perhaps some of the guards become sympathtic towards them and their injustice, maybe feeding them information and secret aid. Heck, the guards could even be bought off with the pc gold they have found along their adventures. You could also have the prison be some sort of fight club for the nobles to come and bet on, sounds like a Van Dame movie. The prison could be a seperate island off the coast, like that movie that had the guy from Highlander in it, or the Steve McQueen movie- Papilion (sp). I guess the point is to make the prison part cool enough that they can have fun and advance or gain contacts and/or knowledge before the next scene. [/QUOTE]
