[QUOTE="Michael Silverbane, post: 7789677, member: 38016"] To me it seems like the goal for the action sequence presented in the OP was to find out what Ned knows, and the approach was the conversation presented in the OP. So in my game, it might have gone something like this... Suiza: "Good day, sir. We found a body in the alley out back, do you know anything about it?" Ned: "I'm sorry, but I didn't see any body or anything unusual last night when I was locking up." Suiza: "Okay, thank you for your time, if you think of anything you can contact us at ..." Brog: "Wait a minute. You didn't hear anything? You live above your shop, right?" Ned: "Yes but I'm a sound sleeper. Sorry I can't help you more." DM: (based on Passive Insight, character traits, etc.) Bob, if you would like to make an Insight check, you can ask me three questions about Ned's statement or character. Suiza's [i]good cop[/i] routine grants Brog Advantage. Then based on the result of that check, and the questions that Bob asked, we carry on from there. [/QUOTE]
