[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 6910373, member: 6777052"] We ought to do some city/town encounters too. (1) In a crowded street, one of the PCs is jostled, apparently accidentally, by a [B]commoner[/B] who discovers that his purse is missing and angrily accuses the PC of having robbed him. Most of the passers-by don't want to get involved but someone calls the city watch. After 1 minute, as many [B]guards[/B] arrive as the party has levels. (2) A group of 3 battle-scarred [B]veterans[/B] are slumped wearily around a table outside a tavern, trying to get drunk. They call out to the PCs as they pass by. "Don't go near the old fort on the north road. We're all that's left. All that's left ..." They will not explain what has occurred, being too traumatised by [I]something[/I] to talk about it. (3) A pall of acrid smoke hangs in the air and people are rushing towards the town square. A house is on fire and in the street outside a screaming woman, her face blackened with soot, is being held back by several men. She is screaming and trying to break free because her children are inside the burning building. A child's face appears at an upstairs window and cries out for her mother. [/QUOTE]
