[QUOTE="TerraDave, post: 6228983, member: 22260"] You didn't do anything wrong. There is "plot" embedied in the descriptions of the various NPCs and the moathouse. If the NPC is something other then a level 0 peasent, you might want to take a closer look. You can also just have some one tell them more about the moathouse and history of the temple. There is part of the opening that should be safe to read or paraphrase to the adventurers. Other then going to the moathouse, its also meant to be pretty open. There are things seeded in the village that can be important, or just ignored. Also note that Hommlet can be a home base for a while as they move beyond the moathouse into the temple, so things have time to develop. Once they get to the moathouse, it should be[I] real[/I] dangerous. Then, they can go back and get help, and get further entangled with the villages NPCs. Some of whom can help (albiet at a price) and some of whom will try, and perhaps succeed, in killing the players. It should be fun. [/QUOTE]
