[QUOTE="Kugar, post: 912813, member: 442"] You got to let the players do it to themselves. 1) The party tank was complaining that he had no where to buy weapons and such. He was upset that he could not convert his gold to loot. Mind you this was only the third session or so into the game. 2) The party comes across a orc caravan they find various goods and some strange rocks that a note said they were going to barter for weapons. 3) Party makes rendezvous, and meets said weapons dealer. He assured them that he knew nothing of the orcs but would be willing to trade for the rocks ;) 4) Party continues to deal with said NPC feeding both equipment and gold to their enemies. 5) Strange rock is changed into an anti-magic syrup that is then added to poison and various important clergy and leaders. 6) In the end the PCs break up the assassins, but do not bother to account for all the "silverrock" 7) When the party went epic it was discovered that the whole plot was orchestrated by a big pig demon with a wand to kill gods :) They could have broken it all up at third level, but for their greed and a +2 axe. Gotta love regret. This was slightly more RB than the time I had them responsible for creating the Red Wizard lich, but that is a different story. [/QUOTE]
