[QUOTE="Jürgen Hubert, post: 385071, member: 7177"] First of all, let the players make the characters in advance. Then you can get a good idea how to work them into the adventure. Second, once the introductory adventure starts, don't let the PCs meet all at once. Let them arrive at the noble's estate in small groups, one after the other. When they meet the others on the way, they can interact with them and form opionions on the others. This helps with the role-playing. On the other hand, if they first meet all others in the noble's audience chamber, the will just stare at each other. Perhaps some of the poorer or ourdoorsey characters will have to travel to the estate on foot, and meet each other in a roadside inn in the common room. The wealthier or more fragile characters could travel by coach, and meet each other there. And others may have arrived previously and have some time wandering in the gardens and the rest of the estate where they - you guessed it - can meet some other characters. Take it slow, and let them interact. The group dynamics will evolve naturally... [/QUOTE]
