[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 2336994, member: 22622"] Kudos on making your pcs as paranoid as I make mine ;). If your pcs are like mine they would be very apprehensive about any changling wanting to enter the party. I ran into a simliar situation when a new pc wanted to play an elf, when the pcs had believed that elves were in on a political conspiricy. What I would do is have the pcs encounter the new guy in some type of torture device, perhaps in teh act of being tortured. The changling pc is a rogue former agent of the group chasing you whom has betrayed them. Go back over your notes of previous sessions and see if there were any things that were out of sinque or coincodence to how the pcs either got away or defeated a battle (or you could make something up such as there should have been three more guards chasing the pcs but the new changling pc took care of them) . I would give the new pc credit for this. OF course he was found out and is now being tortured for this. He probably thought he ws helping you guys out on the sly. When the pcs encounter him he shouts to them the informatino that helped him and tells them he has more information and he's working with "such a such npc" . Let the pcs be able to witness the torture act for a minute to know that these guys aren't staging anything. [/QUOTE]
