[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 3898400, member: 9037"] They owed the cleric an apology no doubt about that but he also owed them one as well because he showed poor tactics doing what he did. He made a mistake using his spell to appear that way in front of a keep under seige by vampires. As others have pointed out in a vampire situation you can't just trust your eyes and go okay that's my friend when he shows up alone after being seperated from everyone else. One things vampires do is turn people. How could they possible know he was not a vampire just by looking at him and talking to him. As a DM I would have played by NPCs the same way because it makes sense. And they did stop firing after the second cleric got through to them about it. My issue with the entire thing is not that the second cleric got in a yelling match with the guard ,emotions were running high on both sides the miltia just had an encounter where they thought they were about to come under attack by undead their adrenaline was running high the same with the second cleric so it is very natural that both were saying things they should not. But here comes the baron who is a much higher level than the NPCs and should have no problem using his skills to use diplomacy to defuse the entire sitaution. Because it is after all in the best interest of everyone that they all work together. But he does not even try to do that instead he jumps into the fray himself making an already tense situation worse. The situation gets totally out of hand and ends up in a duel between the guard and the baron. I think the baron as a leader was wrong he mishandled the situation. [/QUOTE]
