New page

This page is devoted to ideas for one (or two, or even more) game sessions. Many of these ideas were not originally mine, note.

The page is a subpage of my /CampaignIdeas section ...

= Ideas Still to Detail =
*Natural (or Wyld) disasters affecting mortals (volcano etc)
** As they are taking the mortals to freedom, they realise one has been left behind. When they get back, they see she is trapped by a fire spirit etc! (time for heroics ^_^)
*Fair Folk incursions affecting mortals (listless mortals appear in the village)
*The guild, using (a network of indirect) economic pressure on their relatives etc
** To force the PCs to work for them? On a specific job, or permanently?
*Foes that materialise and dematerialise
*Social Charms
** ... all the PCs allies turn on them
**Everyone starts worshipping their ancestors (Abyssal preacher)
*Fair folk ninjas with glass shuriken that dissolve into essence stealing spiders
*Meet someone in disguise who appears friendly, but is later revealed as a (known) enemy
*Barbarian raiders have kidnapped the sister of a PC
*The local god is threatening to cause a famine if he is not given outrageous new offerings
*Faeries have been stealing red-headed children out of their beds and spiriting them off
*Quest to obtain scarce resources
*Mine collapse ... people stuck beneath the earth
*In the dark and pouring rain on a bamboo floating redoubt

*Free the Amber Post Slaves- Attack the Amber Post and free its current slave population. The Guild will pay a bounty for Arguin Cesta, minus the cost of the escaped slaves of course.
*Escape From the Samikal Fens- Fast paced escape through noxious northern swamp inhabited by fell beasts. Very dark and moody.
*Rescue a Realm Prisoner from the Imperial City- A mortal ally has been imprisoned by the Wyld Hunt within the Imperial City. The circle must rescue their ally without bringing down the wrath of the Dragon-blooded
*Ambush a Guild Slave Caravan- Word has reached the circle of a guild caravan en route to a Fair Folk citadel. They must ambush the caravan and free the slaves before the Fair Folk claim them.
*Destroy a Yozi Cult- A deep cavern in the Southern desert has become home to a festering cult of demon worshippers who are attempting to birth a Malfean lord into creation. The cult must be annihilated to a man.
*The Nexus Ripper Murders- Horrendous killings have started to take place in Nexus. The circle must find the killer before more innocents die.
*Night of the Undead- The circle must take shelter for the night in an abandoned wilderness fortress. Unfortunately the castle is already infested with hungry ghosts.
*Find the Ice Prison- A Lunar ally seeks aid in uncovering his fragmented past. The circle must find a ruined Fair Folk prison deep in the northern mountains.
*A large bandit army has been marauding through the Hundred Kingdoms. The army is now camped in a mountain pass on the border between two kingdoms. The circle must do serious damage to the army
*The Infested Manse- The circle receives urgent word from a sorcerous colleague. A demonic summoning performed by an overeager apprentice has gone awry and infested a powerful manse with demons. The demons must be destroyed before they spread to the countryside.
*Envoy to the Wagon Folk- The circle is sent to recruit a recently reborn Exalt from the nomadic Wagon Folk of the Scavenger Lands. They must gain the tribes’ trust before the young nomad will leave with them.

= General Encounter Reminders =
Remember
*Too many fights are about survival
*Rather than have people try to kill characters, have them instead try to steal items (not the PCs, other items) or kidnap people, or conquer kingdoms
*Work your story in such ways that there are more ways to achieve victory than just killing their foe
*Toss an emotional high onto that ("Save the girl!"), then it becomes even more exciting

Try to work out interesting events that alter the dynamics of the fight
*Fires can erupt
*Buildings can collapse
*Reinforcements can arrive
*Someone can be betrayed

Give the players props to play with
*Empasize the array of tables and the broken glass of the bar room
*Remember: COLLATERAL DAMAGE!
