Outlaws are Optional

<p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(83 90 98 1)>As CEO of the world's most successful outlaw band Don Orlando should be laughing all the way to the bank but he's not laughing today. An exiled duke complete with toadies minstrels and huntsmen has set up camp in the forest just a short ride from outlaw headquarters and that's the sort of thing that plays hell with the asset-redistribution business. And the busy seasons just about to begin. In desperation Orlando turns to Mission Implausible Albion's premier adventure team. It's true that their appetite for beer and gratuitous violence is notoriously insatiable and it's also true that Andrew Cruickshank their mage combines the efficiency of the postal service the predictability of the weather and the destructive potential of a strategic nuclear weapon but hell what have you got to lose? Quite a bit actually.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(83 90 98 1)>While Cruickshank studies the Shakespeare play As You Like It for clues on how to get rid of exiled dukes his Designated Opposite the black mage Montmorency arrives on the scene and begins to start stirring things up. As if that were not enough Titus Handcarte the First Speaker of East Castellian wants to put Don Orlando out of business by establishing a Rural Roistering Experience in the outlaws forest and has persuaded usurping Duke Roger to spearhead this operation.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(83 90 98 1)>Things do not look good for Don Orlando caught between an exiled duke on one side and a usurping duke backed by East Castellians army on the other. But Mission Implausible is up to the challenge. They can and do call upon gratuitous violence improbable disguises forgery blackmail dubious transvestite rituals shameless piracy of Shakespearean plots and occult incompetence. Handcarte usurping Duke Roger and exiled Duke Frederick don't stand a chance especially when Montmorency is persuaded to lend his formidable occult and diplomatic skills.</span></p>
