Eirtein Oberigo

[Aretas]

Hey I'm about to use him in a sidetrek meeting the PC's with the 2000 GP for information on where the Knots entrance is. Is he going to have a role in any future Council of Thieves adventures?

[Greg A. Vaughan]

Yes. He reappears in the 5th adventure. Not sure about the 4th.

[Aretas]

Thank you!

[James Jacobs]

He's also got an appearance in the last adventure.

Ok. I hope he is a good guy NPC b/c I'm about to use him in my game tonight! The PC's are to escort him to meet upstart gang leader Whitechin somewhere in the ruined northern section of town as part of there 2000 GP prize for giving Eirtein information about Aberians Folly and the Knot. Think of it as a diplomatic/fact finding mission with the upstart Whitechin and company.
There Eirtein will be kidnapped by Whitechin with the PC's 2 steps behind. (DM Magic will guarantee he gets kidnapped before the PC's can do anything about it)
From there the PC's will have to go to Whitechin's lair and fight past his minions, kill Whitechin the BARGHEST and rescue Eirtein.
Good idea for this NPC or will it run counter to the adventure path?

Spoiler:

Have you looked at his alignment? He's not a "good" guy. What about having this be his nephew or something? That gives you a tie-in, but doesn't lock you into something specific with an NPC that's part of the storyline.

Hi. "Good Guy" NPC meaning that he is not going to plot against the PC's at some future date. Yeah I'll probably have to just replace him with someone else. Thanks for the idea.
