[QUOTE="WayneLigon, post: 3184019, member: 3649"] "Ah, 'tis but a pittance, truly! Long have I desired a simple snuffbox, but I am barred from entering your existance to obtain it. It, frankly, holds great sentimental value for me, so much so that I will part with the granting of your desires should you bring it to me. It has passed through many hands, and now resides in the cubicle of a simple clerk in the palace of Pasha Hasamon." The snuffbox is just what he says it is and where he says it is. Made of ivory and plain, it's only worth something like 25gp. What he doesn't say is that the clerk is really the Pasha's spymaster who beleives that a thing hidden in plain sight is hidden best of all. The secret bottom of the snuffbox contains the only map to a stronghold of pirates that are set to destroy the Pasha's treasure fleet. Without that gold, the Pasha can't pay his troops and they will desert, leaving the city-state undefended. Pirates will raid the city and kill most of the people there, and turn a center of learning and peace into a hive of scum and villany. All because they took that snuffbox and got a +1 on their Dex or something. My players always seem to forget that Efreets are evil :) [/QUOTE]
