(If players are unhappy, then this becomes a different metagame situation.)Also sounds like you've already decided to go ahead with the NPC idea, but here's my thoughts.Whatever you do, don't just kill him and be done with it. That's boring. There are so many more interesting potential plots that can be mined from this situation.I really like Xath's suggestion. Former party member turned evil NPC has a lot of interesting potential.Not sure how much you've deviated from the Adventure Path storyline, but another noble (maybe... Vhalantru?) might be interested in assuring that this man does become mayor. Maybe someone as unscrupulous as this might make a useful (if somewhat inept) ally or henchman.Since he must be tried by nobility or an authorized court, perhaps he needs to be remanded to another city to face justice. And as such, the party might be asked to provide security in moving him? That may sound like a stretch (didn't they arrive with him???) but Sir Eperciron is a paladin, and they did help arrest him. Maybe the ranking guardsman will send a detachment of soldiers to accompany them as they transport the prisoner to the closest magistrate.Ozmar the Scheming</blockquote>
