The Foolish Rouge

I'm trying to set up an ambush for my players that would be set up by the two NPC (http://www.giantitp.com/frm0008.html) Riph & Amerelda. If you know anything about these 2, or read about it, you know Amerelda uses her body to minipulate males. Well she's mininpulating the Wizard, if that helps.

However my creative juices just aren't flowing. I could really use the help of all the great minds on the wizards boards.

My Players are:
Human Wizard 4 (Male)
Elven Druid 4 (Male)
Gnome Rogue 4 (Male)
Half Orc Barbarian 4 (Female)
Human Fighter 4 (Female)

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps she tries to get the wizard off by himself for a little alone time, and then she and Riph capture him.

She then runs to the rest of the PCs in tears, saying that the two of them were attacked by thugs, and she barely escaped to come get them for help.

As the other PCs follow along, they are ambushed by Riph, while Amerelda "cowers" and tries to run away. Once in the rear of the party, she opens up with her spells.

Perhaps the two of them hired some local thugs for assistance - warrior 1s, or just maybe a few rogue 1s.

If things go poorly, Riph steps out of the shadows with the wizard and a knife, and tells the party to disarm or the wizard gets killed.

Beware, as many players dislike being captured, and will often fight stupidly to the death just to prevent it.
