[QUOTE="WillieW, post: 203846, member: 4299"] You have to rescue the adventure by making another adventure out of the problem. Sure the Dwarf is mad at being robbed. Why is he hiring a wizard to scry on the characters? Obviously, one or more of the items the thief stole is more important than at first glance. Is there a map in a secret compartment? Was the dwarf on a quest of his own when he foolishly got legless and woke up potless? Is he unsure of exactly WHO the adventurer is... Obviously she COULDN'T be the harmless rogue-about-town he "mistook" her for. He must be careful until he can find out who she is, or who hired her... The solution to the dwarf's problems will be the hook for the next (or a future) adventure into which the player characters can be drawn later. Political intrigue... scandal.... treasure hunt... the scope is there for the DM to sit back later and say "I meant that to happen" to the rousing applause and possible carrying around the room at shoulder height by the adoring players. It could happen. [/QUOTE]
