[QUOTE="cmajestic, post: 2980175, member: 36990"] A few years ago I ran a campaign for a few friends of mine. The campaign was a take-the-barony-back sort of a game, with one player the son of a displaced noble and the other a displaced master-of-the-hunt. Well, son returns from wizard college to chaos and misrule and rumors of dark doings in his old home. Strange mercenaries are in town from elsewhere, travel is restricted, and people are disappearing. The two characters are poking around and the ranger happens to notice several crows circling above the treeline a ways off. They go and investigate and stumble on a large body of mercenaries executing townsfold that they knew. There was nothing they could do and they knew it - so they watched as a friend from both of their backgrounds was murdered. This wasn't terrifically disturbing so much as it angered them. What disturbed them was when a mercenary finished their friend, knocked his gold teeth out with his mace, and nonchalantly pocketed them. [/QUOTE]
