I went through HH once back when I was level 8 on my way from Qeynos to
Freeport for the first time and I got lucky enough to run into a room with 3
NPC's that I did not realize were hostile, 1 was a dwarf who mauled the hell
out of me before I knew what was going on, in fact, I was walking over to
them to ask directions! ;-)
Apparently there is a band of 3 brigands who are NPC's that are somewhere in
HH Pass and these must have been the characters I ran into. Anyone have any
more info on these dubious creatures? When I am high enough in level you
can bet that I am returning to exact my revenge on them!
