Since they managed to avoid anyone who could tell them the password they needed to have someone cast a  legend lore spell for them. So they traveled to the next major city and hired a mage to cast that spell.That mage was known to them since he helped them get rid of a polymorph other spell earlier. They had contacted him through an exceptionally good gather information check to obtain the cheapest mage around who could help them with the polymorph problem. Since the mage was indebted to the thieves guild he was quite happy to earn some easy money. So the party should have known this mage was in no way capable of casting a legend lore spell but they still went to him and before the mage could say that he is unable to cast a legend lore spell, the party offered him 800 gp for his services. The mage immediately agreed on helping them, asking some innocent questions about their mission and the use of the password. He than retired to his rooms and made up a convincing story to tell the PCs instead of casting a spell. The party believed his words, paid him and went back to open that crypt only to find out that they were fooled. They were quite angry since the wrong password set off a nasty trap. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Intend on making the mage pay for his fraud, the party set off on a manhunt to find him. They eventially caught and bound him. The ensuing interrogation was quite grim for the mage. He was threatened with death, being delivered to the thieves guild and being turned over to the authorities. The party finally consented to delivering him to the thieves guild but when the mage failed his bluff check to make them believe that the thieves guild was no longer interested in him and that they should deliver him to the authorities he was CdG'ed by the party fighter who stated afterwards that he believes this to be proper behaviour for a chaotic neutral alignment because he no longer wanted to listen to the mage's lies.Well, i warned him that this cold blooded killing was the first step towards chaotic evil alignment. The next time he does a similar act i intend to force an alignment change on him.Do you have similar problems with chaotic neutral characters?I'd really like to hear your opinion on the topic.~Marimmar</blockquote>
