[QUOTE="Scott Christian, post: 8107897, member: 6901101"] No offense, but if all DM's were as unimaginative and needed to be spoon fed as the one you quoted, all adventures (all movies, all RPG's, all tv shows, all books, all stories told around a campfire) would be full of plot holes. And to be even more fair, you are talking about an adventure that is TWO pages long. But yeah, let's find the plot holes. :oops: Two things: Suspension of disbelief and reading the nuance. Hlin followed the caravan for ten days... from town to town. Eventually she had stop. Why? Maybe she felt they were getting suspicious. Maybe she was running low on coin and needed to replenish her purse from home. Maybe she realized she wouldn't be able to take out the killer, Sephek, so instead waits to find someone that can. And laughable say-so? Three people have been murdered. Live in a town of 150 and have someone murdered and see if the "veteran bounty hunter who has honed skills throughout her years" isn't viewed as a good investigator. Attach that to her noticing Sephek's ability to not be cold during a time of a magically prolonged winter and things can add up. [/QUOTE]
