[QUOTE="Kristivas, post: 2670212, member: 34179"] I've given the party an assload of cash without meaning to. They met a real butt hole of a noble and decided to rob him after he gloated over the spoils which he took from the towns people in heavy taxes. Well, they find out he's going to be away so they sneak into his manor and find the vault. During this, the captain of the Baron's guard comes in. He's quite a few levels higher, so I was pretty much going to have him beat them into submission and toss them out onto the street naked. Well, the fighter gets up and charges him.. rolled a 20, then another 20 (I learned my lesson about instant death crits). The caster hits the guy with a few magic missles and the rogue moves for position. Well, the big bad captain of the guard swings twice at the fighter.. rolled a 2 and 6.. whoosh whoosh. I'll be damned if the fighter didn't crit again next round, while the rogue tore into the guy for some good ole' sneak attack. Another magic missle and the captain was horse meat. So, the rogue rolled really well on his search and open locks, and found the treasure. After all that, I wasn't going to cheat them out of it. There was talk of giving the money back to the townsfolk, til the guards were seeking out anyone found with the Baron's treasure for murder.. then they just skipped town and spent the cash in a big city. It wasn't too much, though. Roughly 23k and they were all level 3. [/QUOTE]
