Involvement

Scarpers and the rest of  Zenovia's gang were paid by  Arfur Gregorio only to bring him safely home, but he now demands that they also evict the refugees who are currently squatting in his mansion. Zenovia reminds him that she and her group were only paid to act as caravan guards and anything more will cost extra. If Arfur is antagonized, or the intimidation of him fails, he calls on Zenovia to remove the refugees by force. If the party intervenes, a fight can break out and Scarpers then becomes hostile.
