Then someone official or brave confronts the newcomers to check the situation out.This actually lends some sense to the permits issued by the Cormyrean administration in the Forgotten Realms. If I recall correctly each adventuring party there has to be registered. The mayor or headman would ask the party for their license and perhaps take note of it. Each party not shoing their license or not owning one would be considered armed and dangerous.Following from this thought the government might entertain a mobile troupe to engage unlicensed and/or dangereous parties. Add some carrier pigeons to each village and this troupe will follow and engage the miscreants.Or replace the official troupe with some organization of good adventurers, the Classed Characters Society, which takes care of the deviants.Neither of this approaches will stop some parties to wreak havoc on unsuspecting communities, but if your adventurers come to such a scene, the next adventure writes itself.</blockquote>
