[QUOTE="Zappo, post: 192780, member: 633"] Ah-hem... if I have to say, in the last session there was a nasty fight in a tavern, leaving only one PC standing, and the innkeeper told him he would keep the equipment of the PCs' aggressors as payment for all the damage they caused. The PC said no, and no again, threats were thrown by both, and eventually he attacked. The innkeeper promptly whopped his butt. I'll have to decide next session a reason for which the innkeeper, after having been repeatedly insulted, attacked, and having his inn half-destroyed should not just kill all the PCs while they are helpless (one of them was killed, another was turned into a pumpkin, and another into a blind kobold with no arms, and the last one went insane due to zero WIS from a nasty poison on the innkeeper's blade). Sounds like I've got the same problem as Methinkus' DM? Well, fact is, the inn is Bosetti's inn in Pandemonium (see Dead Gods), and anyone capable of running an inn all by himself in the third layer of one of the most inhospitable planes is necessarily quite capable to defend himself. Pity the PC didn't realize that. Anyway, there are many ways to make the problem so apparent that the DM cannot deny it. Gez suggested one. But is this the right approach? Doing so would be like challenging the DM. I suggest you try talking to him first. [/QUOTE]
