[QUOTE="QueenB7788, post: 7111382, member: 6881764"] Alright. Let me preface this: My husband and I have recently gotten into playing DnD (3.5 edition). We started about a month and a half ago and just made it back from Forge of Fury. I play a full elf Rogue, alignment chaotic neutral (until yesterday), and my husband is a human Paladin (lawful good, until yesterday). We're both level six. Our party also includes a full elf Drau, level 5 (chaotic evil) (sorry if I spelled that wrong) and a full elf wizard (also chaotic), level 5. As I said, we just got back from Forge of Fury, fairly successfully and not dead. I had been planning for two weeks with our DM to join the Guild of Assassins, as a prestige class. I have all the prereqs but you have to kill an innocent to become part of the Guild of Assassins... Well, I planned with the DM to kill my husband, the paladin. My reasons for killing him other than joining this particular prestige class are... well, let's just say he's been a bit of a prat and it would be more interesting than just killing some random towns person. DM thought so too. So I slipped sleeping potion/poison in to everyone in our party, including my target. Then I gave my target a lethal poison. He rolled one hell of a fortitude check and will save. He ended up in a coma. I told the DM I would try again this time, but with two lethal poisons. Our DM, in order to more or less please every body, had the paladin saved from the brink of death by the Black Guard (prestige class) and he had to become chaotic evil, or lawful evil, I didn't actually check. Once the game was done for the night, my dear husband told me if his character finds out it was me who tried to kill him, he'll probably kill me as well because he had his heart set on staying lawful good and wanted to be a different prestige class. Perhaps I didn't think that was a real possibility, him wanting revenge, especially because he didn't actually die and he got a prestige class out of it. But it was conveyed that he wanted to stay lawful good and I forced his hand. IN ANY CASE (sorry for the ramble)... [U][B]I'd like to know what ways I could possibly protect myself as a Rogue Assassin from an attack like this down the road. [/B][/U] Intelligence is my highest ranked skill of all of them at a 19. Everything else is like a 10-12 or below. [/QUOTE]
