[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 3290824, member: 9037"] I cannot tkae the prisoner openly to the Cyrean King it has to be done in secret. It is important that no one knows that the king questioned this man. That being the case I am pretty sure they are going to excute him after questioning him. My paladin does not have a problem with this because this man has the blood of over a 1000 innocent Cyreans on his hands. He will be judged by the rightful ruler of these dead Cyreans. And yes my character is working in the open her loyalty to the King is well known. Her king asked her to be included in the group. I have tried to feel the other party members out about this situation and they simply want to be paid and since the King does not have the funds to pay what the King of Breland is offering they won't allow this prisoner to be turned over the Cyrean King. One of the big problems I see here is what I see as the old fashioned way of bringing a party together. Everybody makes a character gives it a background and the DM fits it all together. This may work with simple dungeon crawls but in a game with a lot of political intrigue it does not work so well. The characters should have something in common. I made my character first I had a concept and knew I wanted to play a paladin before anyone else had even chosen anything else. The DM told me he wanted to do a lot with the cyrean situation and we had a talk about paladins I had thought we were on the same page. No one else made characters from either Breland or Cyre. The only reasons they are in Breland is that they were in an Airship crash and got caught up in an Orc attack on one of the camps. So they have no loyalty to either Breland or Cyre. my character is ina rough situation. Betray her king or betray the party. [/QUOTE]
