Players just unknowingly helped me create a new villain.
Players just unknowingly helped me create a new villain.
5th Edition

In our last session my players ransacked a farmhouse before looking for the owner who was tied up in the basement. When the owner was freed he offered to give them the wages of his ranchhands as they’d been killed by orcs. What happened instead was our paladin, who is a religious extremist, asked what his religion was. When the owner of the ranch hesitated, the paladin, without a word killed him by ramming a sword through his chest. All of this happened in front of an 8 year old boy that the paladin had adopted previously. The kid ran away and after spending a good amount of time trying to contact him on the sending stone that they had given him they gave up and collected the reward for the quest they were doing. Overall, the kid isn’t all that intimidating, but he’s smart. Now he perceives the man he considered his father as truly evil and I’m making rolls in secret to see how he trains to take his father down.
