35) You lost a favorite item. Maybe it was misplaced, or it was stolen by a flock of tiny crow men. Regardless, you refused to continue until it was found. The item is back in the inventory at the beginning of next session, of course.
36) Helped a friendly farmer with a calf's birth. Make a wisdom check. If it succeeds, you have a heightened appreciation for the miracle of life and gain +1 on all saving throws until the end of the day. If it fails, you become slightly ill at the smell of blood and gain -1 to attack rolls until the end of the day.
37) Someone stole your clothes while bathing.

43) The character comes back to the group all excited and says: "Hey, I was at this meeting where they told me how to make lots of money, part time, involving my friends and family. It's easier than adventuring. The next meeting is tomorrow. You should come. No, I can't tell you more about it..."
