[QUOTE="Dr.Dan, post: 1106550, member: 10142"] [b]Respectful Tomb Raiding - Revised[/b] Well, that didn't work the way I planned. You see, I tried to translate a very non-D&D game into D&D terms in order to simplify the question and expedite the answer. However by doing so, it appears that I've conveyed the wrong impression. Let me try this again. The game in question is the LARP, [URL=http://www.mythicaljourneys.com]Mythical Journeys[/URL], and the race is not dwarf, but is famori - a sort of half giantish people, noted for their wisdom and scholarly traditions. The ruins in question were once part of an arcane academy of higher learning which was destroyed in a magical cataclysm some 260 years ago. Many of the famori in town, while concerned for the sanctity of the place (it is considered a tomb in much the same sense that the Titanic is), are quite eager to explore it none the less. There is no clan to rally against the local lord, and no 'lawful' tendencies to the race in question. The expedition is expected to return a good deal of treasure if it is successful. There is likely to be magical treasure found as well. The local baron has declared that at least one famori should accompany each expedition out of respect for our ancestors and to insure that nothing 'disrespectful' occurs, as the place and people within were once held in very high regard. The question remains, what is 'respectful' and what is 'disrespectful' in such a situation? I apologies if my earlier entry was misleading. I hope this clarifies things. Your input is deeply appreciated. [/QUOTE]
