[QUOTE="Rel, post: 3753926, member: 99"] But see sometimes what I like to do is have one of the potato farmers go up to the skinny Rogue who had just asked the barmaid, "Do you know anybody who could guide us to the Ogre Lair in the hills nearby?" and say to him, "I saw you talking to my woman. You'd best stay clear of her, Outlander, or you'll be getting more of THIS." And then the farmer punches the Rogue in the stomach. Or he would have if the Rogue's AC wasn't 26. Then a quick and dirty brawl unfolds where all the farmers go down in one punch. Even the Wizard is knocking guys on their butts. Afterwards the PC's harken back to their first barroom brawl where the entire party was thrown out into the street by a pair of 3rd level Expert Bouncers. And they say, "We've come a LONG way!...Now about those Ogres..." This also sets up the scene later when the party returns victorious from the Ogre Lair (except not the Wizard who failed a Concentration check while within reach of a Greatclub and got critted) and the potato farmer walks up to the Rogue and says, "I misjudged you, Outlander. You have my thanks." And extends his hand in friendship. Later that night the Rogue sleeps with the barmaid of course. [/QUOTE]
