[QUOTE="haakon1, post: 9526325, member: 25619"] I’ve decided the inn the PC’s are going to stay at has Spy v. Spy drama for the PC’s to discover or perhaps be victims of. The spies are operating independently and may or may not have discovered each other’s work. They may be opposite goals or just different. The inn is in Thornward, Bissel. My Bissel is roughly closer to the 576 CY version (the original and 2024 versions) than the 2e version. [B]What I’m trying to figure out: who do the spies work for?[/B] The pub/inn is old, near the market, and tends to have a quieter, richer, less adventurer-oriented clientele. Spy #1 is a server at the pub and a maid for its 4 rooms (2 of them high end). She’s a Baklunish woman from a Baklunish country. It’s 3.5e rules and her levels are in Expert. Spy #2 is a halfling rogue, a regular at the pub who occasionally picks pockets. Possible employers of spies: [LIST] [*]Defensively, the government of Bissel or the Order of the Watch. [*]Iuz. He has his reasons. [*]The Horned Society. IMC, they were defeated by Iuz and went underground, and are active in the region. [*]Local thieves guild or imported one (from where) competing for territory. [*]Mulloqhad (sp?) Consortium. Baklunish trading company with sometimes armed trade or worse - British East India company without the protectorates and territorial claims. [*]Free City of Hochoch. Thanks to PC actions, they are feeling a bit threatened and may be influenced by the HS. [*]Ket. Always at Bissel’s throat. Which is boring, imho. [*]Wildcard. Works for more than one of the above. [*]Wildcard. Works for someone else I didn’t mention. Not the Scarlet Brotherhood/Order. [/LIST] What do you think? [/QUOTE]
