The group, predictably, refused. The bandit and his gang beat them senseless and took ALL their stuff, not just the gold. The group slunk off.Much later. The same group, now 13-14th level, passes through the same area.. They get waylaid by the same highway man and his crew. But the highway man is basically the same level, and they're, well, not. 1 or 2 rounds later the entire gang is down, and the group take all of THEIR (the gangs) stuff. Not that they had any use for it, pure vengeance. The group had as much/more fun with that encounter as they had with any of the nail biting actually important ones. They got to experience the fun of being better than they used to be, right up close When the group needed a tax collector for their keep, they tracked the highway man down and gave him and his gang a job.</blockquote>
