[QUOTE="Lord Pendragon, post: 1636837, member: 707"] I used a similar trick in my last campaign. One of the PCs was a cleric of the Dreamweaver, so when he first joined the party I wrote out a long, complicated dream sequence he had, which led him to the party. Later when another PC joined, I passed him a note that he'd seen the new PC in that previous dream, and that he was somehow important to their quest. :p I can't really help the original poster, because I never touch evil stuff. But as a general rule from a good campaign running DM, I do expect the players to break character at times. Introducing a new PC is one of those times. Now, I'm not saying the players have to take [i]The Gamers[/i]' route (funny as that was,) but they need to get around to at least a working relationship fairly quickly. It's the new PC's player's game, too. [/QUOTE]
