[QUOTE="barsoomcore, post: 1303638, member: 812"] It was all so simple. Party gets hired by the del Maraviez family to escort a caravan from Mataleo through the Cigany Hills to Fort Burnoll. They're told the whole point of the expedition is to get a certain emerald to Fort Burnoll. All sorts of things go wrong, and they end up rescuing most of the civilians from an army of the walking dead, only to suffer savage maulings from the decidedly unfriendly local fauna (velociraptors). By the time they make it to Fort Burnoll, most of the caravan is dead and the emerald is certainly nowhere to be found. They get shown into a waiting room and a pretty young woman comes in and introduces herself as the del Maraviez rep in Fort Burnoll. She asks them questions about their trip, in particular, did they carry out the specific orders they'd received. The party gives her a detailed explanation of all that they've done and were asked to do, and she smiles charmingly, flirts a little and leaves. Then Antonio del Maraviez shows up and wants to know why they were talking to Collette, representative for the hated rival family the del Orofins. They tried to get revenge on the sweet young thing, and she got the party fighter embroiled in a duel, arrested and chased out of town as a fugitive. They tried again and she got them nearly killed again. They don't just hate her. They're terrified of her. Which is great, because she's a, like, 4th-level Expert, and they're all 10th level. She's just really smart and has many powerful friends. [/QUOTE]
