[QUOTE="BV210, post: 2970118, member: 1534"] Party is playing "The Matchmakers" from an oooooold Dungeon magazine. Anyway, they decide the best way to get the soon-to-be-married-to-the-old-guy maiden away from her family and joined with her true beloved is to sneak into the manor house at night and spirit her away. They put together a pretty decent plan, lookouts on perimeter, sneaky rogue to infiltrate, find girl, convince her of their plan, and use [I]portable hole[/I] to sneak her out (stopping every couple of minutes to refresh the air within). Part of the plan was in the event of a problem, said rogue would blow a dog whistle. The druid's wolf companion would hear it and react, whereby the druid would reach into his [I]bag of tricks[/I], toss whatever he pulled into the barn, and use the distraction to let the rogue have an opportunity to escape. Well, the plan was working very well, rogue made it in, avoided any awake servants and squeaky floors, found the girl sleeping (actually her near-twin cousin, but that's neither here nor there), convinced her to come along, and successfully made it out of the compound. As he was moving toward the rendevous point, he states, "now that I'm out, I blow the dog whistle to signal everyone to rally up." D'oh! Suffice it to say, the black bear drawn from the [I]bag of tricks[/I] did make an excellent distraction, only now the family (and soon the entire city of Silverymoon) was aware of the kidnapping.
