Message: <blockquote data-quote="Elf Witch" data-source="post: 3896098" data-attributes="member: 9037">In my game a duel of honor can only be fought among people of the same rank. What would have happened in my world is that the captain of the Guard would have the right to postpone the duel until he got get a champion to fight on his behalf or they would have waited until the lords of the keep came back and let them say what is to be. It depends on the noble. Some of mine would have cut the poor guy's tongue out, some would have told him to shut up others might have relieved him of duty. It would really depend on the situation and who had clear command. If the Lords of the keep put the PC Lord  in command then I think the PC Lord had a right to expect the guard to follow his orders. Though I still think he could have tried to smooth the waters over the friendly fire. And he would have the right to discipline the guard if he disobeys.Now if the Captain was left in charge then this PC Lord overstepped the bounds of hospitality. As a DM I might make this fellow have an ego problem or he had an abusive lord and he had enough so he goes down the path of evil to fix what he sees as wrongs. And no in no way do I think that slapping an NPC is in the same league as vampires.I  don't like players who play their PCs as bullies or antagonistic towards lower level NPCs and expect that there will not be any repercussions just because they are PCs. So that maybe coloring this for me.</blockquote>
