Now, I need to use them. I've got a scenario coming up where six halfling heroes are pursuing four Ridiculously Well-Trained Chimpanzees who've just abducted the Princess Teena and are now fleeing across the rooftops of your typical medieval-esque fantasy town.I want to liven up the chase rules with pre-planned random stuff. I'm thinking about printing X number of chase events on business cards to form a small deck. Players (based on some predetermined criteria) will draw a card and act/react based on the information.What I need now are events. Here are some I've thought of:1. A Shortcut! You see a quicker route, but it's not going to be easy. Make a DC X Acrobatics check. If you succeed, you move up X chase increments. This may actually put you ahead of the apes.2. Clothesline! In your haste in the dark, you didn't see the clothesline until just now. Make a [some sort] check to avoid getting entangled in drying laundry.3. Loose Tiles! Some of the roof tiles come loose underfoot. Make a DC X Acrobatics check to avoid sliding to the edge of the roof. You fall behind one chase increment.4. Flock of Pigeons! You startle a flock of pigeons. The air is full of feathers and beating wings. Make a [some sort] check to avoid not being able to advance a chase increment this round.5. Poo! One of the apes left a nasty surprise. Make a DC X Acrobatics check to avoid befouling yourself.I'd really like to have between 18 to 24 events, with a mixture of bad, good, and humorous.Thoughts?</blockquote>
