Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dark Dragon" data-source="post: 3418072" data-attributes="member: 1115">This happened last session. It is a two-parter.Part 1)The party (a human bard/barbarian, a human monk/wizard/enlightened fist, a human druid, a reincarnated elf fighter (former human), a reincarnated kobold rogue (former halfling) and a very young brass dragon) are looking for some sinister guy who may have some valuable informations.One day, the party rests in an inn. The wizard is writing a spell in her book, the dragon sleeps in a cozy fire, the rest is hanging around.Then that sinister guy walks in. The dragon is the only one who knows the guy. So he waited until the guy took place and secretly informed his friends. The bard, the fighter and the rogue tried (quite harmlessly) to provoke a fight, but the stranger stayed calm. After some more insults, the guy left the inn and waited outside, hidden behind the door. The bard followed him, pretending to smoke some tobacco. The rest of the group didn't follow.When the bard closed the door, the stranger barred it with a kukri and drew his heavy pick.Initiative was rolled.The bard didn't fight well and got his skull crashed with a critical hit in round 2. The blocked front door prevented the rest of the party to help in time, except for the dragon who went outside through the back door.Nevertheless, the rogue managed to blast the door away with his ring of the ram and the party could join the fight. The stranger fell to the dragon's sleep gas and was tied up for later interogation. The bard was dead, though.The point: Smoking kills...Part 2)Same party, some minutes later.The druid, the monk and the dragon went for a nearby forest. There, the druid started to cast reincarnate on the bard. Houserule: Casting Time 1 hour.Meanwhile, the fighter and the rogue guarded the unconcious stranger. Then, the local ruler, a very smart countess, arrived with her bodyguard, because the had heard of the fight. She asked about the incident. The rogue told her almost everything... The countess went to see the guy.She recognized the stranger and asked the fighter and the rogue to leave the room. Both denied, fearing that the countess may help the stranger to escape...First, it was a battle of words. Then the fighter and the rogue drew their weapons and attacked BOTH the bodyguard and the countess...It was very clear that the two would not last for long against the two PCs. When the countess shouted for help and tried to escape, the fighter knocked her out, at least dealing only subdual damage. Then the two grabbed the stranger and fled. The rest of the party was unaware of that and showed up at the inn with a new party member, a gnomish bard...and at the inn, they met a very furious countess...Point: Law is for whimps. But the two players played out their PC's chaotic alignment very well. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
