I'm open to any suggestions or potential plotlines for the Final Boss to show herself in, but before we get into such shenaniganry...

I'd like for someone to help me push Desco into a Mercenary role. Something that would give her an excuse to help people instead of blindly attacking townsfolk for food until the law catches up to her.


The Premise.

So basically after wandering around for a while getting no information on how to go home, Desco is going to get hungry. However, she has no money.

So, finding herself outside of town on a merchant road, a cabbage cart rolls by (because of course cabbages) and Desco decides to raid it.

However, someone comes in to stop her! (hopefully you)

We can do some combat back and forth but Desco will lose the fight for plot reasons. Your character can then persuade her to work for a living as a Mercenary. There are multiple reasons that will work on her, not the least of which is 'A Final Boss wouldn't be a common bandit' or 'become stronger with experience'. Preferably not someone that is just going to throw her into a cell or something. She will listen to someone that defeats her in combat.

We can work out some of the finer details here or as it happens naturally, but that is the rough idea of what I'd like to happen (Not that everything always happens as expected of course!).

If two people would like to intervene, it would be even easier for the combat part of the plot as she'd be statistically unlikely to win. Bring whatever unfair advantage you'd like.
