[QUOTE="akr71, post: 7290610, member: 6801213"] [B]The Wrong Place at the Wrong Time[/B] While browsing the goods for sale in a busy market square, the adventurers end up next to someone in fine attire - possibly a successful merchant or local noble. He or she may have a retinue with them, but not a large one - a servant and possibly a bodyguard. The well dressed person suddenly grabs the back of his or her neck and falls to the ground. A successful Perception DC 20 catches a glimpse of a shadowy figure moving away quickly - possibly from a rooftop or dark alley. A successful Medicine DC 10 on the fallen noble finds a poison dart or blowgun dart in his or her neck. Maybe some bystanders also get hit by poison darts, maybe a party member - though a 'close call' of a poison dart hitting armor might be enough. Maybe the bodyguard blames the party member who was standing closest to the noble. [B]Mind your Drinks![/B] In a crowded tavern, a patron who perhaps should have headed home a tankard or two ago is bringing a fresh pitcher to the table for him and his mates. He stumbles and spills some ale on a large burly fellow who does not take too kindly it. He shoves the first man - if he does not out right fall over, the pitcher of ale certainly gets dumped and/or sprayed all over. His mates are upset at the loss of their drink and the rough handling of one of their own. The burly fellow has some irritable mates of his own. Other patrons either stand up, grinning or take to hiding under the tables. Unless someone does something to intervene, a brawl is imminent... [B]The Street Magician[/B] An illusionist is performing on a street corner. The audience gathered to watch is mostly children, who cheer and clap enthusiastically, but do not have anything to toss into the donation hat - a battered well worn thing at the magician's feet that has mostly coppers and a few silver pieces in it. The illusionist's robes are quite threadbare too, but appear to be of fine quality. [/QUOTE]
