[QUOTE="Pielorinho, post: 23142, member: 259"] At a certain point in RttToEE, we became convinced that everyone in Hommlet who had a name was part of the temple's cult network. We decided to go door to door and ask people, "Who are you?" If they stammered, "I'm, I'm the, uh, the baker," then they were fine, and we'd leave. If they said, "I'm Ember" or something, then Blammo! We'd let them have it. The difference between your party and ours, of course, is that we didn't follow through on our scheme. Instead, we headed back out to the moathouse, where everything seemed much safer. I think you handled things right. Consider a geas on the less-offensive players: they need to pay to bring their victims back from the dead, and compensate their victims 3,000 gp apiece, or else be sold into slavery for ten years, proceeds from the sale going to their victims. Considering Hommlet's troubles, however, Rufus & Bern might be willing to interrogate their victim who showed up as evil; if she turns out to be part of the temple, they might very well be lenient. Make it hurt, definitely, but make sure the players can still have fun. Daniel [/QUOTE]
