[QUOTE="Terwox, post: 4421652, member: 1044"] The differences in mine are fairly exaggerated due to the nature of the campaign, but perhaps they'll be useful to someone. In my game, Winterhaven and 100 of its inhabitants sprang into existence spontaneously one week ago. Inside the palace awoke Lord Padraig and his wife, along with a cavorting "human" known as the Countess (vampire,) and a pompous and over dramatic Warforged Warlord/Bard known as the Invincible Duke. Each are convinced that they are the rightful ruler of the city. Eilian the Old appears to be around 140 years old, and he is, well, a pervy old man. He favors the Countess. My party, upon meeting the Duke, who assisted in the first encounter with the kobold ambush, was told that he was the most popular in town, and he would lead in time. At this point, my party declared that their ranger was actually the prince of the town, along with his Seneschal and Grand Vizier... they claimed a small house outside town as their own, while the Duke stood outside singing about how he was the greater ruler and they would be his rightful citizens in time. Upon reaching the city gates, as the Duke was giving them the royal escort, the guards laughed at him as they usually did. The Duke introduced the party as his retainers, the party threatened his death, and after a timely mage hand, he was face down in the middle of the gate as the entire party walked over him. To make a long story... well, middling sized, the Duke's name is going to become "Irontooth" very shortly. >:D Should prove interesting. Susanna Wrafton is also a staff-style fighter who fiercely backs Padraig. The Countess herself pretends to be an alcoholic, although I'm using the old Vampire the Masquerade fluff to where vampires can't digest alcohol unless they drink the blood of someone who is drunk... she pretends to be more of an airhead than she actually is. In general likelihood, she will grow tired with the notion of ruling soon, unless more of a competition is offered -- she is more interesting in simply cavorting. In the end she is likely good for the town simply as a source of entertainment, as well as battle prowess -- should she choose to display it. Anyway, the town's walls will also erupt into a gargantuan assassin vine, and a well will sprout in the middle of town that dominates people into throwing themselves to their deaths down it, but this is due to the party's previous actions. :) The Duke was a lot of fun to add, as both comic relief, and as a new foil.
