Either I'm not communicating clearly, or you're reading intent into posts that I'm not seeing. My guess is that we strive for the same type of play experience, and are just talking past each other. I agree that both of the cases you propose are undesirable - and I certainly never meant to advocate for either. My reading of the above scenario is that you see the challenge as "get the NPC of note into the Zone of Truth" - and at 3rd or 4th level that might be an appropriate challenge; I was imagining situations where "the NPC of note" has been clever enough to have "plausible deniability", and would be perfectly willing to sit down for a ZoT tete-a-tete, might even suggest one...It is worth noting, too, that everyone inside the ZoT is affected by the spell, not just the bad guys <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
