Alas, the odds of my group playing this successfully and actually having fun approach nil. They're so disorganized and inattentive that the NPCs would just beat them to a fine paste while they constantly missed their initiative. Also, they're complain because this isn't Pathfinder or Paranoia. Sorry...

The only problem with using combat as filler is that you're going to wind up pitting them against faceless mooks that they don't really feel the need to kill so much.

If Elodie dies, her maternal uncle Laurent gets the throne. If he were to die, Charlotte gets the throne, presumably followed by her younger siblings in order of their births. And then, if the youngest dies without any children, what happens? Do we know of any more blood relations to Fidelia other t...
