12-10-04, 01:28 AM My DM is running a city campaign in Telflamm and we are basically a party of rogue/fighter with a rogue/cleric and a sorcerer.

he is basically leaving it up to us to decide what to do... we have recently been at a bit of a loss so i thought i would pick your brains and see if anyone had any interesting ideas.... we are now fifth level and kinda having trouble coming up with resonable ideas

thanks in advance

12-10-04, 03:35 AM Are you part of the Shadowmasters thieves' guild? I guess so.

If you are you could try to ruin the Nine Golden Swords - the other thieves' guild. Infiltrating their ranks and then destroying them from the inside should be quite a task.

Or you could try to perform the crime of the century by breaking into some wealthy merchant's house and robbing him blind. The Merchant's Fortress, the Thayan enclave or Castle Balindre all seem good targets. You might even want to try the temple of Mask (if you have no ties to it), but I doubt you'd succeed.

Another thing you can do is gather information - like where the biggest, most valuable gem or piece of jewellery is located ithin the city.

12-10-04, 06:54 AM Steal the biggest item from the wealtheist person! What famous treasure items are there to steal? Or you can break into a temple and steal something!!! That will make you (in)famous! Perhaps, you want to spend some time to develop a spy network? You know, a bunch of informants that can tell you when something important comes into town and such. Or, you can set up safe houses around town. Just a room here or there that has armor, weapons, some cash, and a place to hide.

12-10-04, 02:59 PM Rob some one of high station blind. Then have a hireling return all of the goods, or in some wise negotiate your band of scoundrels a place as his/her troubleshooters and security agents.

12-10-04, 05:18 PM Are you telling me your DM is giving you no direction at all??? No plot hooks whatsoever?

That'd be a sucky game.
