[QUOTE="PnPgamer, post: 8127977, member: 6786484"] Hey guys! I am going to start a new campaign using pathfinder 1e system with my own setting. The background will be that some of the players are sons/daughters of royalty, and some are older former members of the court. In the land they are from a dictator got the king killed. An oracle got a vision of the future that only way for queen to be able to rule once more, she should disappear and let the members of the court take the children to a different land, into exile. Game starts on a point when these princes are adults and the guardians are a bit older.(there are other details but these are the relevant ones for my gm help) My intention is to let the guardians know it all, and let them decide when it is the right time to reveal some or all about the details of the royals past. My question is if this makes any sense to try to keep it a secret (i personally love secrets) from the royals or should they reveal it immediately? Should i just skip the whole secret shenanigans and tell everyone on session 0? If to go with secret route, what would be the reason(s) to actually keep it a secret? Thanks in advance for your help and ideas, they are greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
