Episode 1265: Snicker Snack

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

Here's a thing you don't see too often. Normally when a group of heroes/adventurers gets into conflict with a bunch of the villain's mooks, it's simply a case of fight them until they're dead/incapacitated.

But how about trying to engage them in conversation? Taking an interest in their welfare? Convincing them they are working for the wrong side and that they should betray their master?

Next time you get a chance in a game, try giving this a go. And watch your GM squirm as things go completely off the rails.
