[QUOTE="Wrathamon, post: 6391343, member: 7989"] Hi! I think your idea of aboleths is pretty cool villain. (they had some nice stuff about them in the neverwinter campaign setting at the end of 4e which was pretty good stuff from what I recall) These two topics ... to start with. I dont think the wasn't married is a very good hook ... I think just leaving it as she gave birth to a baby that has a holy symbol on its face (and maybe she doesnt know who the father is) is enough mystery and weirdness that most common folk might be weirded out by, especially if the baby has strange powers or weird stuff is happening in the town since the baby was born. the reason for why Orcs didnt do it is pretty hard to comprehend and doesnt make that much sense. Why are orcs more likely to kill the baby over goblins? I think you can work on a really interesting reason why orcs are using goblins to do their dirty work. A why are Orcs trying to capture this baby and how do they know about it is going to be the questions players are probably going to search for after trying to find the baby. Having solid interesting reasons for those will be good. As for playing baby sitter. Sure that can work in 5e. It just depend .... do the players want to or not. If they don't what is your backup plan to continue the storyline? Their actions should have impact on the world. If they decide to protect the baby ... then do something interesting for their troubles. also, what if the baby dies? you might need to answer that. don't have much time today but I will try to respond again.
