Well no response from the Viscount at the table. In regards to an earlier conversation: "Self-reliance is the key, son. Depend on yourself and your companions, it will build character.  Besides not everyone will be able afford loyal servants, and disloyal ones could do a lot of harm with so few eyes to watch them." There have not been any offical wars for a while (see timeline), its one of the pressures that creates so many restless younger sons with no offical duties.  In previous generations extra sons died off in war. There could have been an actual bandit lord that had to be taken out in the valley of Lasia, and thus provide justification for your father's raids, your military experiance and even a Krovian response.  The problem being that there is little chance of further military action. It would have been a small scale, one time event.  Another alternative would be a small goblin (1 tribe) incursion/immigration.  Gnolls don't work as well because your viscounty shares a border with the Grand Duchy of Krov (south of Denumbria), and thus far from the North Eastern lands of the gnolls. Although if your Duke was attacked, you might have been sent as part of the fuedal obligations to send military aid to you liege."Species enemy is those that one knows their habits & weaknesses best."  - Right, especially in regards to hunting them like prey and killing them. How bout if yout throw in some justification about tracking criminals or fighting the above bandit lord, and I'll accept it. Zaset (only) [sblock] Do you have an idea who Agatha is? or are you just setting up hooks?
