can we be a bandit??

You can go to the bandit camp and do a few quests there, as long as you do not inform Louis about their location first (so don't bother mind reading the captive bandit).
There is one robbery you can come across and choose sides, and several quests or encounters where you can use threats or intimidation to extort items or gold (which may or may not be better than being nice). Even when being evil gives you more loot, often being nice gives more experience; sometimes you get the same thing either way, but the NPC reacts better if you are nice.

but if we go to bandit camp, are we gonna be attack by bandit?

You get attacked by the bandits on the way to the camp. If you know the password when you get to the entrance, though, you will be allowed in, and everyone there will assume you are a new recruit.
Talk to Louis and he will propose a mission for you, after you have done some other stuff.

so where is the secret way?

You need the quest first, then you can open the secret passage in the ruined chapel (west of the village, north of the river, in the initial area you have access to in Broken Valley). It will be awhile after that before you will be able to reach the bandit camp (groups of bandits on the way are level 9; for one area in particular in the camp you would probably want to be at least level 11 or 12 before attempting, or possibly at level 10 with the help of the creature or a summon).

ok and if i alredy in the bandit camp and i go out the bandit camp, still the bandit in outside attack me?

You can leave and return as much as you wish, until you turn in the quest and tell Louis the location. After that you can return, but the bandits inside will be hostile. The ones on the outside stay hostile regardless (at least I think they do; I cleared them out before entering).

You can even side with the merchants in the robbery quest, kill the bandits, and return to camp and report back on the outcome (interesting dialog options for that).

thx man
