Basically the whole party was yet to be a party, and we had all made plans to, uh, steal this famous sword. So I decide to take out the leader of the sword's guards (i'm working alone), so that I can pretend to be him, and jack the sword when i'm suposed to be putting it back into its vault (it's being auctioned). Meanwhile, the rest of the party basically pretends to be the maker/auctioner of the sword, and sets up a ruse such that the sword appears broken. Well, really they tried to remotely teleport it, but unfortunatly it was chained to the wall, and that didn't work at all. In any case, they convice the guard to take the sword from the wall so that it can be "fixed at my shop", and then the guard  gets hit by the poison I put in his food, and goes to the privy, where I kill him and take his place. Then I go after the fake auctioner. and tell him to give me back the sword, or at least accompany him to his shop. Things come to a head when just then  the REAL auctioner shows up, as does the rest of the party, which had high tailed it to the big open square where this was happening. They remotely steal the sword out of the fake auctioners hand. She motions to them, which I notice.I basically figure out what just happened, realized how increadibly screwed I am, and try to figure out how to get out of there. So I "arrest" the fake auctioner, and somehome convince the other guards that it would be good for me alone to escort him away to jail. Then I basically blackmail her, and get some money and the names of the people she is helping.A day later, the party has already fenced the sword to thier master (and had cleverly figured out who he was, or at least who one of his lacky's was). Anyway, I basically show up and say "no hard feelings, want to help me with a shakedown job?"They agree, and after the job I ask if they want introductions to the local thief guild, run by my adopted father, The Beggar King. So they say sure, I take them down, show them around, and then talk to my father alone, and basically say that we are gonna double cross the party, kill them and take thier stuff. He agrees, and so I let the rest of the party in to his office.Then things get intersting. My rat bastard DM decides that my daddy is gonna shoot me, and STILL betray the party. My character dies, theirs are poisioned, one is taken hostage, and general evil mayhem ensues. All because my character wanted a sword.It was the perfect moment of crazy rat bastard backstabing RP.</blockquote>
