I prefer it when my players set themselves up for death. Besides, I often have "temple wars" going on and off in the background of my campaigns, if they are hanging out in decent sized town/cities.My campaigns aren't static. It is assumed there are millions of things and events going on around the campaign world that the PC's have nothing to do with. The only way they get any wind of these things is through news and gossip. If they want to get involved in anything they have to decide to look into it.Otherwise we stick to the module or homebrews story arc. If that means I have an NPC priest ask them to help out a church, that one or two of the PC's belong to, because they are involved in a "holy conflict" with the temple of evilness (insert desired god) and are getting their behinds handed to them, well, thats the fun of a game that takes place in a fluid campaign world.Stories and adventures just come out of the woodwork on their own. Its another reason I buy so many modules and subscribe to Dungeon magazine. I look at them like reading a newspaper of the news that no one hears about, and decide where it takes place in my campaign world and what other effects it may have.</blockquote>
