Updated the not above to include:<br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>The large invasion force began it's advance simultaneously to the queen's death.</li></ul><br/>To your suggestion, eiselmann, revenge is probably what would drive him now. I have no problems with him confronting Evelyn and Octavian. Though Evelyn is kind of not in control of the situation at the moment. I like the idea of the queen being poisoned though. That would be the cupbearer's responsibility not yours, though you would no doubt take some of the blame upon yourself.<br/><br/>However, wait to get Doodaursorus' thoughts on your scenario. I'm totally fine with him being the most powerful, if single combat does happen, maybe a die roll works. I've never used dice in my games as most people have always just let someone else come up on top for the sake of the story. Perhaps Doodausorus has something else in mind, who knows. I'm okay with that way forward.<br/><br/>I'm a little confused about the whole hood thing. So because the queen is dead he can't hide his face? The princess would always have seen the queen's champion in the hood. So are you just saying he wouldn't be recognized as the queen's champion because he was going around undisguised?
