[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 7733321, member: 6688277"] Understood. Do not agree. If consistency remain then 2 does indeed remain a puzzle/made. For instance, during the Siege at Sukiskyn (B10), I inserted an additional NPC in the homestead. He left shortly after the siege for Kelven to gather assistance, leaving the characters to guard the homestead. In the module notes, Pyotr's daughter, is mentioned to be very perceptive and able to detect lies. I decided that she mentions to her mom, that she believes this NPC lied and would not be going to Kelven. The daughter's family having had experience with their daughter's uncanny perceptiveness in the past inform the PCs of his information. Now in my notes I have developed a [I]secret backstory[/I] on the NPC. I can change it, as long as the previous interactions the PCs had with this NPC remain valid for the new [I]secret backstory[/I] I develop. The puzzle is still there to be unravelled and retains its integrity. Pretty much...this is evident in D&D modules all the way from 1e to 5e. [/QUOTE]
