 About eliminating a 'pain in the butt NPC', heres an idea I had.

What you need is a priest of a religion that has both convert character
and geas miracles (eg, a Sarn priest from NIC). Firstly you convert the
NPC to your religion then geas them. With the new rule additions you
can use the T11 'Transfer To' order on them to remove them from the
location to a legion and then onto the nearest Gold Dragon lair :)

Obviousely this only works on NPC's that aren't priests. The bonus of
this plan (if you can get it to work) is that once the NPC is dead you
can Lay Dead to Rest on them and take over their guild (if they had one).
