In my boredom I've taken a closer look inside the Catacombs. While I was exploring it, I began forming an event in my mind. Here's the idea in a nutshell: (Just for the record, ICly it would not take place in the inn. It would be somewhere totally different.)
The event would start at the Pit of Criminals. The participants wake up on the huge pile of bones, when my somewhat shady toon - Randai "Shane" Crowson
- would walk in, offering the group to lead the way out of the unknown place. On their way, the players would learn about how they got there, why they got there, and who my toon really is. Also, there is an unknown horror lurking inside the catacombs' walls. So basically, the group would need to trust my toon in order to get out. I'm also planning to insert a few twists. Well, that's it so far. Thoughts?
UPDATE 1:
Here is my WIP:
Event Name: The Haunting Past
Event Location: OOC: The Catacombs IC: An Unknown Labyrinth or Crypt
I'm making notes in the images below:
Event Starting Location:
Then turning around: (Start reading from the bottom of the image, following the blue arrows with your reading.)

After The Fall:

Are there traps that each person has to get through?

Actually, I was just thinking about traps. They may prove to be an excellent idea. However, they would not be traps made to be accomplished by certain individuals.

Oh Goodie!
I'll start working on some details, and update the original post some time later.
EDIT: If the event's gonna be like that, (everyone has his / her own trap or smthing, which he / she needs to accomplish) I would need to request personal information about possible reasons to be there, and then create an outline (containing every person's trap in chronological order) before starting the event. It's a possibility, too
EDIT 2: More ideas are warmly welcome!

So you're seriously considering making a SAW event ?
With traps for every individual, and an actual reason to be there?

I said it MAY be possible to make such an event. It would require a lot of pre-work though. I'll work out a basic concept first.

I would, but it seems I must be off for a bit. Hopefully you'll be on later and we can descuss this.
