So, here is how his trial played out: Justice Ironbriar presided, and each PC was questioned and cross-examined by barristers to discern if they believed that he was guilty of the charges of "aiding and associating with a nihilistic religious cult that plotted the wanton slaughter of the peoples of Sandpoint." Then the alchemists brother from Riddleport was brought in as a character witness, adding in his story. To demonstrate the ruthlessness of Ironbriar, Orik was sentenced to 15 years in the Hells.

All in all, it was a success. Only one out of five thought it was a boring session, but she has an itchy trigger finger (er, archery finger, or whatever). The rest called it "Law and Order: D&D" and enjoyed the role-play opportunities after several sessions of dungeon-crawling.

I just had a new player join our RotRL game last week. I tried picking his brain about what he wanted to play, but the options can be overwhemling for people who have never even played a video game rpg, much less tabletop, so I rolled him a human rogue with high strength and dex, so he could feel useful in combat while still having a big pool of skills to pull from. To my surprise, he took to Pathfinder really quickly, with an emphasis on RP, and couldn't wait to continue. lucky him, he joined just in time to assault Thistletop.
