[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 7172649, member: 6816692"] My husband did that once in an one shot adventure, albeit in a less dangerous version: We were 3rd level and there was this classic "need adventurers for X, offering Y as reward" table. There hanging was a note from "Lord Bashorius of the Masterful Mercenaries" who was looking for further companions for his raid on the Troll fortress. And my PC was like "Trolls? you're kidding me! I'm not up to Trolls, less a FORTRESS full of them. But I'd take a look at this tavern and this Bashorius.". But the rest of the not-yet-formed party was like "THIS IS OUR HOOK AND WE TAKE IT". The hubby was a bit awestruck and made a wizard approach the note, reading it, then shaking his head and muttering that this "Bashorius troupe" wasn't worth the trouble and that he got his rear kicked royally by a Gargoyle mob the last time he went on an adventure with them. The party still was keen on joining Bashorius. So we all went to the Tavern and saw these guys and gals in their shining, sparkling stuff which all screamed "this is a high level party! Only join if you are experienced!". Still they tried to impress Bashorius and his group, doing tricks, swordplay, displaying magic etc. and get rebuffed. While my PC and one other found the single farmer who was looking for people to help him with his skeleton problem in a nearby mansion. ...the hubby still makes fun of Bashorius every now and then when we come around a seeming adventure hook which is clearly way out of our league.
