[QUOTE="Wicht, post: 6204815, member: 221"] Eh, okay, I can see winging that, though the answers would likely be noncommital (you detect a few items here or there, though nothing stands out) if I had not planned anything specific. But most of the time, there will be things planted in a well defined urban setting germane to the adventure. As said, I don't really like total off-the-cuff DMing if I can help it. I am guessing I am playing with a higher quality of player than you are in regards to moral fiber. Its not often a problem. :) Still and all, if the players are trying to rob an unnamed NPC, then I will do a quick determination of what was in the pocket.
