I can see why! There's a lot of intrigue and adventure opportunities in them-thar' hills.
1. While shopping, the party saw a bedraggled wizard getting ejected from the magic store by a flesh golem. [...] I didn't have any cure worked out, but I imagine a remove curse or break enchantment should probably do it.
I actually have something very similar in mind! I have an old Dungeon magazine with a wizard that curses someone in the party. I think your curse might make for more comic relief than what was suggested there! (That's a good thing ) I'll probably run this as a hook to get the party to visit some ruins where they'll pick up the blessed crossbow bolt to kill the rakshasa.
2. While everyone else toured around and saw the sights, she spent the entire day filling out applications and running back and forth between buildings on opposite sides of campus. Before she could get application A filed, she needed Intent form B, which required Permission slip C, etc.
This could be a fairly funny way to get them familiar with the general tower layout! I'll have to figure out how to play up the comedic side of it...
After all that, she had to go through Aptitude Testing, which was little things like identifying spell effects, casting cantrips (ray of frost to chill the professor's drink), that sort of thing.
This could be a good start for making up the final exams! Thank you!
3. When a new young lady arrived at school midterm, everyone got suspicious when the headmaster suddenly started treating her as a favorite pupil- she got all the best class times, materials, etc. The party suspected some sort of evil enchantment and spent days following the two of them around[...]
I'm SO pulling this on them in second or third year. What a great way to introduce a new NPC!
That was an excellent bunch of suggestions! Thank you, Byrons_Ghost!
