10. Sebastian, lawyer, because you told him he liked collectible cards typically marketed to pre-teen girls.

Shadow Lodge

11. Human rogue, because he stole you pants and you want them back.

Silver Crusade

12. A atrociously poorly played paladin walks in and uses detect evil and then attacks anyone that registers as evil, including that lovely tiefling girl you've been trying to redeem.

Silver Crusade

14. A rather ugly rogue informs you that his thri-kreen buddy doesn't like you. And that he doesn't like you either. He's also has the death sentence in twelve countries.

15. Random patrons just seem to have it out for you. Cayden Cailean is possibly trying to tell you something about what you're doing with your life.

16. The barkeep has it out for you because you just happened to suddenly find your coinpouch missing. Apparently some rogue found its size just right.

17. A bunch of crazed, drunken patrons rush you, seemingly intent on tearing you apart. You mistakenly entered a joint occupied by bacchae. And you're not partying hard enough for their liking...

Shadow Lodge

18. Everyone, because you tried to steal all the beer.

19. The man who you said had bad breath, turns out he was a dragon.

Liberty's Edge

(STOP MAKING CHARISMA YOU DUMP STAT !)

Silver Crusade

25. Zombified pixies that have been left pickling in the drink behind the counter have broken out and are wreaking havoc in the place. The barkeep has a lot to answer for once this gets sorted out.

Liberty's Edge

26. Spoilers for a crimp gang (mixed races; rogues and fighters) in cahoots with the fuzz decide to pick a brawl, several of them targeting random patrons with a mug to the puss.
The whole place goes ballistic, then the city guard comes rolling in 3 rounds later (that's 18 seconds, chief, not 3 minutes) bashing everybody up with belaying pins, taking them down to the jail, and turning them over to the crimps.

Liberty's Edge

27. A blatantly stereotypical dwarf because you look like an elf.

32. Vincini - "The Sod has spoken!" Short, is intellectually prepared for any battle, and carries a Knife incase they are too stupid to be defeated by brains.


Verkrekius, the Slaad (in human form), visiting the prime for s~#$s and giggles, who saw a bar fight once and thinks that is the social norm for bars (even sedate ones- he doesn't know the difference) and picks a fight with the PCs for no reason.


A criminal is on the run from a skilled bounty hunter, and runs through a bar to dodge him. In order to distract the bounty hunter, he approaches a group of group of drunken barbarians and tells them the PCs said terrible things about the barbarian's mothers... bar fight ensues! And the criminal hopes to dodge out in the chaos, escaping his bounty hunter.

Sovereign Court

35. Soldiers trying to have a quiet drink on their first night of leave for goodness knows how long - and then you showed up with your opinions.

What are you talking about? A paladin can drink!

Scarab Sages

42. Half-Orc Furniture maker, because it's fun and he has a contract with the owner to provide the tables.

43. Halfling named Big Jake, because he's got a superiority complex, and a pair of magic items, Girdle of Physical perfection and an amulet of Mighty fists - Merciful (This is the Pathfinder version of an old NPC of mine that is the arm wrestling huckster who used to have gauntlets of ogre power and a girdle of storm giant strength, back when those stacked.)


44. The squad of half a dozen hellknights sitting right behind you.
They're attacking you because I told them that you're outlaws from Andoran - although I did this because I am in fact a potential NPC patron and I want to see how you can handle yourselves in a fight.

Liberty's Edge

45. Whisker Bob, the tavern owner's cat, because you're a lv.1 commoner and he's out to prove, once and for all, that a cat can beat a lv. 1 commoner in a fight.

46. Whiskey Bob, the tavern owner, because you're a lv.1 commoner and you just beat up his cat.

51. Milton Waddams, "Excuse me? Excuse me, bartender? May I speak to you please? I asked for a Dwarven ale, and they brought me Elven wine, and I said Dwarven Ale, but this is clearly an Elven wine" He uses the fight as an excuse to burn down the tavern.

Shadow Lodge

52. The tavern itself, because a drunken cleric of Cayden decided drinking would be more fun if he cast animate object on the tavern.
