Hook: While travelling through the countryside, the party is approached by a small group of men in clerical robes. Line: They say that a bandit and his gang are on their way towards their temple, intent on destroying it as revenge against the priests, and they need the party to stop the gang. If the party is successful, the priesthood will heal the characters free of charge at any of their temples at any time. Sinker: The bandit had brought his dying brother to the temple, but when it was learned he had received his wounds by a bodyguard after the brother had ambushed and killed a man, the priests refused to help him. When the brother died, the bandit swore vengeance, and rode off to round up his gang.There is a major restriction on the party for dealing with the gang; they may not injure any- one. The high priest is adamant about this, since their faith would rather see the temple destroyed than blood spilled in its defense. While this may seem difficult, there are many means (intimidation, tricks, magic, etc.) to accomplish this goal.
