[QUOTE="Khazan, post: 5001355, member: 86282"] keeping in the spirit of your ship-bound 'encounter' and the broken rudder... how about some problems with the wagons, and some skill challenges to repair a broken axle? lifting the wagon and removing the wheel (Strength checks), repairing the axle (Knowledge:Engineering maybe, i dunno). perhaps the broken wagon lurches unexpectedly and frightens the horses, requiring Handle Animal challenge to keep them calm? what about some trouble with the travelling entertainers? perhaps a fight breaks out amongst them (love triangle gone sour! a dancing girl accused of stealing something from the acrobat! wagon drivers demand more money for the journey!) requiring Diplomacy / Sense Motive challenges to the characters. perhaps a few entertainers fall ill (cities always are great sources of all sorts of nasty illnesses) and the characters have to Heal, or, better yet, search the nearby meadows for a rare herb or plant with which to make a tonic (Knowledge: Nature, Alchemy, etc..)
