Editing NPC (section)

== When Things Go Wrong ==

Sometimes, NPCs do [[Not as planned|NOT]] work out like the GM planned. One of these stories is the one of Kren and Frep, two NPCs in the author's [[Rogue Trader (RPG)]] group.
Kren and Frep were just basic fleet armsmen, armed with mighty (...not) [[Derp|shotguns and wooden fighting sticks]]. They were "introduced" when two random dudes standing in a fleet dock were admiring the ship of the players, who proceeded to instantly hire the two.

GM: well, fuck. (now i have to think of stats and stuff...)

Anyways, they ended up carrying a large medi-kit and a life-saving backpack for the [[party]] around, following them and doing not much else.

They were just following the [[PC]]s and discharging the odd shotgun shell. They even managed to kill some random cultists with their wooden sticks after some lucky rolls.

In one mission, the party was on a derelict ship, and they were constantly finding random stuff strewn across the floor, sometimes even weapons.
One of the [[PC]]s found some guns he had no use for (he was a [[Kroot]]). And gave them to our valiant armsmen. A rare sort of [[Bolter|boltgun]] and a best quality [[lasgun]].

And then. [[The Henderson Scale of Plot Derailment|All went to Shit]].

Those two flaming assholes sure as hell DID roll multiple "righteous fury" when they hit the final boss of the mission, an [[Alpha Legion]] [[Chaos Lord]],  [[Not as planned|killing it with 64 wounds inflicted when he had 28 left]]. (Yes, the PCs DID manage to plonk off [[Derp|2 hp]] before).

Originally, when creating the adventure, I intended to have the one who killed the Lord gain a special reward, and so thought of revoking the fact they killed him (like, they misfired or something), to give my group the chance of actually killing the bad guy themselves.
But, after somewhat 15 minutes of everybody lying on the floor and almost pissing ourselves laughing when we had realized what had happened, everybody agreed we'll let it stand like that.

Still, Kren and Frep [[The Henderson Scale of Plot Derailment|get a full Henderson for this]].
