[QUOTE="Final Attack, post: 4139653, member: 61181"] The primary thing I was looking for was ideas, and opinions. Thanks to everyone who responded. My story line is quite complex and the game is very long running so there was information left out to keep my post succinct. For those who asked we are all in our early 20s. I frequently encourage freedom of choice, and RARELY try to ‘railroad’ their options in the game, hence my reluctance to reprimand them. I frequently talk with them OOC about their actions and try to get justification for their actions. We have a pretty understanding table. There is a lot of roleplaying, but the fighter is very quick to instigate fights. But Paladin and cleric always back him up. One thing not originally mentioned is upon cutting the head off Vincent a painfully bright light from the wound blinded the Pally. This is a planned punishment, one that will last a year before he can overcome it. Hades (introduced as Linous, Hades is only a pet name I use for him, yes he is dangerous and evil) will not take the killing of Vincent lightly, he merely wants to have the PCs become his pawns through blackmail. His calm demeanour is to keep the PCs relaxed. The concept of making them outlaws is a good notion. One I haven't thought through. Though many people do agree that they should at least become outlaws. [/QUOTE]
