Hi all,
I need some insight on a matter about Last Laugh refusing to accept PC in their ranks. Some context on this:
Rogue PC wanted to infiltrate Last Laugh guild in order to obtain some information about their activities in Cauldron. Taking into account one suggestion from this message board I used “The Watchers” solo adventure to introduce him to the guild. We where starting the Flood Festival chapter at that moment so I thought that I’d be a good idea to assign him the mission to investigate Triel and their activities around Alleybasher (the rival guild). One of the statements of the mission was to bring Triel to them alive. Unfortunately the same rogue PC was dominated by the Kopru and forced to kill Triel. He has come back to the Last Laugh quarters to explain was has happened, but I don’t know how the guild would handle this, as he hasn’t stuck to the mission principles and he has become more and more popular in the city due to his heroic actions.
What would you do? Would you let it in the guild? Perhaps is not allow but Jil can accept him as a minion or something? Please help me.
In D&D, death is rarely the end. In other words, Triel isn't totally useless to the Last Laugh. A speak with dead or raise dead spell could still be used to get all the information they need.
The best way to handle this is to have the PC fix the mess himself. In other words, he has to retrieve the body, gain access to the apropriate magic etc. Once he's redeemed himself, he can take another test to gain membership of the last laugh.
Make this as complicated as you like. Perhaps the only place the PC can get the magic needed to revive Triel is in the posession of a powerfull vampire living in the Haunted Village. This might be the perfect opertunity to introduce Mhad, or another powerfull villain in the AP.

Yes, why not, that may be fun. Triel Corpse is still floating in a flooded kopru ruins, besides the blood oozes may have spread through it 'cause of the flood (anyone knows the reproduction rate of this monster? ;) Muhahaha...
