I said it would be ridiculous for the player to establish the lore that they, through their background feature, can get passage. They can get passage, but that passage is through payment. Not a background feature. I even stated in my example that the player declared themselves using their background feature - not payment to the merraenolths.And again, all this is absolutely ok. Sounds like a great adventure. Of course, I doubt very seriously any DM that brought someone to Hell doesn't have three or four roadmaps already built for their group to get out. Unless, of course, they're playing on the fly. (Which personally, something like going to one of the layers of Hell really seems like there should be some prep involved. But some enjoy it more free-forming it.) In the end, I really don't think we disagree on much, with the exception that the DM sometimes already has the information in place - and that information is what should be used, not a player's suggestion. Again, I have played with many groups, and many people, and I have never really seen this be an issue.</blockquote>
