[QUOTE="Coredump, post: 2348615, member: 6939"] Hmmm.. I can tell that what I am thinking is not what I was writing.... Dooniro lives on family estate. (how big or small can be changed, but at least well off). His brother has been kept in a crypt that is *not* on his estate. (longer story, but where it was has a burned down house and is abandoned. It used to belong to some of his 'congregation') This is what the PC's get. They get told that Dooniro is a sadist (source does not *know* about brother, but rumors may be okay. Source does not know about him being a cleric), and has beaten/killed people with his cane, among other tortures. But there is no proof for the authorities. The party will believe this, but want more proof before they act. I want them to see proof. So, I need them to see proof, enough that they are willing to attack (kill?) Dooniro and take his cane. But I want a scenario where it is likely that Dooniro will escape so the party will chase him. He will go to the crypt, and the party will follow, and then he will 'trap' them there. There is no way to tie Dooniro to the crypt once he leaves, so the party will I *know* he is evil, but not be able to prove it, and not powerful enough to deal with him. (yet) He does not feed kids to his brother, he takes them home and brings them back for a 'proper' burial, once they have 'passed away' at his house. (He is *such* a thoughtful man...) Thanks for the input, this is great... . [/QUOTE]
