[QUOTE="BiggusGeekus, post: 1552445, member: 1014"] OK ... A - party has allied with them, hates B (false!), leader is friends with bard, is really part of B B- doing buisness with C, owns A C- doing buisness with B Hmmm. Well, on the surface it seems to me like you're 90% of the way there. The assistant of Leader-A (but not Leader-A himself) tells the bard that he's acting on behalf of Leader-A and to disrupt a meeting between B & C. The assistant-A has told his cohorts in B that the party has a couple of nice magic items -- though assistant-A keeps the knowlege of the best ones to himself -- and that he'll turn over the party to B for interrogation after assitant A is done with them. The "meeting" with B & C will be faked and will simply consist of members from B with half of them dressed in the clothes of C while the guys from A who are pretending to back up the party will turn on the party when the poo hits the fan. Where does this leave things? The leader-A may or may not be behind assistant-A's plans. But he keeps his hands clean if the assistant is able to manipulate the party before the bard has time to check with his "buddy". assistant-A' prestige is raised in the eyes of B. Assistant-A keeps a nice item for himself. Assistant A gets the party's intel. Assistant A may or may not keep this to himself depending on how innocent you want leader-A to be. In the meantime, you have an excuse to keep the party alive because they'll be transferred to B which gives them an opportunity to esacpe. just a thought. [/QUOTE]
