[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 3851695, member: 9254"] Assuming the DM isn't a tightwad, the PCs have [i]already[/i] been rewarded for their actions. Perhaps that's how they got the land they mortgaged to Steve, neh? Plus Steve had 1,000gp available to loan to the PCs. That implies Steve is pretty darned affluent, if not right out wealthy. Steve can probably hire his own muscle, and might be sneaky enough to bringing in a squad of Paladins to drive off the robbers who declared they were taking over once they were asked to pay their debts. There's my next game session or three. And at this point the players have just decreed they are immune to local law. If there is a higher power to appeal to, the Mayor should do that right now. Either the King will promote the PCs to the nobility and put in charge of the town or he'll consider them interlopers and seek out "heroes" to "free the town from the greedy and capricious rapscallions demanding tribute from the good townsfolk." Ta da, adventure! These things write themselves. Assuming the entire group plays like the "Knights of the Dinner Table" gang and it isn't just one jerk, I can readily apply the worldview of "there are no problem players, merely plots hooks awaiting a gobbet of flesh to impale."
