- Convince the Mayor
- This Real Time Encounter is for PCs that need permission from someone in authority, in this case a Mayor. How will they talk to them and convince them to let them go someplace that is normally off limits.
- What you need to know to prepare the PCs for this encounter.
The best setup for this Encounter is to make sure in a previous Encounter or game that an area is established as "off limits" to most people. Then, put a quest goal in this area that the party needs to find.
Remind the party, if needed, that the best way to get into a place where they are not supposed to be is with permission. This can get them out of a whole lot of trouble if they try to sneak in or something. If they have permission, they will not have the hassle and potential danger of sneaking past guards, being caught in a place they are not supposed to be, or work yet ending dead because failed to sneak or fight their way in.
It can also be a great opportunity to learn more about the area they want to get into. If they don't tell anybody and just sneak in there are all kinds of secrets or dangers that might surprise them. Asking for permission they can easily get more information about why that area is off limits.
