I've invited all the nobles and merchants of the town to this extravagant ball, but not out of the goodness of my heart. My plan is to relieve them of a sizable amount of money, hopefully without letting them know about it. My apprentice is practicing her pickpocketing skills, but I'd like to focus on something more complex, perhaps setting up a few cons that could make me some money, or playing people off each other to gain some blackmail/political capital.
The problem is, I don't really know how to do any of these things. I'm looking for some ideas of schemes and cons that I could pull off, or maybe there's some other opportunity that I've missed. What would you do if you knew the rich people were all going to be in one room, possibly a bit drunk?
I can get access to a bit of magic from my Evoker friend, but mostly I'll be relying on mundane methods.
Thanks! I look forward to hearing your ideas.
