Fun things to do at a VIP ball
Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:55 am
Hi all,
In the FS3 campaign I'm running for my group, my cadre is nearing the end of an assignment given them by a Questing Knight, the reward for which is supposed to be a socialite ball held in their honor at Imperial expense... and I need some inspiration. Have anyone run large socialite get-together dramas in FS? How do you do it? Also, what kinds of things would be fun to have happen at such a ball do you think? I want to steer away from murder mystery, as it has been done too many times and would end the social occasion prematurely. Ideas?
Just to set the stage a little: My cadre (Keddah noble with retinue) is currently working on an assignment for a Questing Knight (actually more like a manager fellow than a frontline hero). The ball will be held to honor the cadre's deeds and accomplishments. This is taking place in Acheon on Criticorum (or another nearby location - suggestions are welcome), and the Questing Knight have promised to invite local dignitaries and visiting VIPs to the occasion. A rivaling cadre will also be there (rivals, not enemies/nemesis), trying to turn the evening to their advantage.
Suggestions? Thanks in advance
