[QUOTE="Daern, post: 5021916, member: 81800"] Yes, i'm a bit surprised as well, but I've also been surprised by how tuned in they are to the plot. But this is a new group of players for me. The group is literally alien: A wilden Seeker, and dark elf sorcerer (this character seems to be doing good deeds despite himself, but then, he has the most personally at stake with this attack on magic users.), and a human fighter (BUT he was apparently born on the Astral plane and raised by Gith slavemasters...) I think a big factor is that the scenario of the adventure makes mercy and negotiation interesting, rather than just missing out on some fun combat rounds. They realized right away that there was something more to Kathor than just the bandit boss... and similarly keep asking why we can't let the elves have the case. This will make for an interesting negotiation with Shealis I think. For what its worth to those who are about to DM the module, here is the text of my Kathor handouts. (have renamed the Imp "Croaker" and decided that he had been Kathor's contact, though he does not know its true nature.) Kathar Danava, Despite your ignomious failure as a soldier of the glorious Empire, Leska is gracious and would offer you and your men a bounty on behalf of the Ragesian empire – we will pay a bounty of one hundred gold for each living wizard you deliver to us. Perhaps you may earn a place at your father’s side once again. You will be contacted by Croaker. Hunt well, Guthwulf Diplomatic Privilege It is Hereby Declared by Formal Recommendation of the Esteemed Council of Gate Pass that in Recognition of his Honor and that of his Patrimony, Master of Arms Kathor Danava is Granted Diplomatic Access to all Outer Gates of the Free City of Gate Pass in order to Promote Familial Feelings beyond the Necessities of War.
