I remember trying to go and bring my heroes on a quest, and I remember specifically equipping trinkets on them, and EVEN DOUBLE CHECKING that they had the right skills and trinkets. When I went into the Weald, they ceased to have their trinkets equipped, I was bringing a Falconer with. Now, I do have another mod installed so that might be messing up with the Falconer mod, the mod being Marksman Shot, a mod that buffs Highwayman.
