Since he's dead, I can now reveal the plot-line I had planned for Tekkis. Naturally, this was all sketchy at the current time; more detailed planning is pointless without the ability to foresee the future.
The Iron Order was, of course, using Tekkis. Myev had set him up, commanding the orc in the bar to antagonise Tekkis, allowing him to determine that Tekkis was capable in a fight, but not exactly the brightest star in the sky. And so, Tekkis was brought in on the attack on Arius' manor. It was thought that he might assassinate the lady, and thus perform their job for them. If he didn't, or if he failed, there would be no loss.
The only thing that could have gone wrong was that Vibius might somehow find out about the attack, and warn the lord. Tekkis was advised to not allow that to happen, killing Vibius if necessary. Funny how that worked out.
Of course, if Tekkis remained useable as an asset, I was planning to have him drawn further into the Iron Order's plans, with a view to doing the "fall into evil" storyline. Since Tekkis was already going that way, I didn't expect that to be too difficult to arrange...

ReplyDeleteThanks to my "contact" at the inn Vibius managed to defeat the evil-DM plot to save the day. Of course, now I'm thinking would it be interesting for him to fall in love with Mistress Bolonia(?) just to really annoy Arius and the rest of the group? Maybe that would be a bad thing after last Saturdays session.
My character is still worried about Kal though he realises that he was being blackmailed into helping with the plot. Vibius feels that (as a friend) he should help him to find his sister by tracking down Myev, at least this is where I think they way we're going (perhaps Gary's PC knows where she is and also wants revenge on her? = PC motivation for joining group?).
