[QUOTE="Shadowdancer, post: 1887195, member: 515"] One of the many cool things about "Sharn: City of Towers" is Table 8-2: Corpses. It is a table of corpses a DM can use as an adventure seed for his PCs. Unfortunately, there are only 13 corpses on the table. That's just not enough for a campaign primarily set in Sharn. Plus, there's not much variety to the corpses in terms of race, class, etc. So let's create a much larger table, with 100 corpses. We already have the first 13; we just need 87 more. I'll start. 14. The victim is a human male wearing expensive-looking clothing, which is soaking wet although there has been no recent rain. A successful Knowledge (nobility) check against DC 10 will reveal the clothing to be common among Aundair nobles. The victim's identification papers show he is an agent for the Royal Eyes of Aundair. By all indications, he died by drowning. 15. The victim is a female elf bearing the Dragonmark of House Phiarlan. She is dressed in an entertainer's outfit, and a broken lute lies next to the body. Searching her clothing reveals two different sets of identification papers: one for an entertainer, another for a licensed inquisitive. A stiletto dagger is buried to the hilt in her back. A slip of torn parchment inside a pouch contains a single word: "Shamukaar" 16. The victim is a female gnome dressed in clothing common to people from Zilargo (DC 10 check, Knowledge (local) required). Her tongue and eyes have been cut out. There also are rope marks around her wrists and ankles. Lastly, her throat has been cut. Her indentification papers indicate she worked for House Sivis. 17. The victim is a male dwarf dressed in the uniform of the Karrnathi military. He has been stabbed numerous times by large blades. At his waist is an empty messengers pouch with a claw insignia on the broken clasp. On the back of his right hand is a criminal mark inscribed with a [i]pen of the living parchment.[/i] 18. The victim is a male hobgoblin. His travel documents show he is from Darguun, and his indentification papers indicate he is a member of the Defenders Guild. Sticking from his neck is a small dart; the dart's tip contains traces of a powerful, fast-acting poison. Nearby, a doll resembling a small human girl with long, blonde hair lies on the ground, with a smear of blood across its face. [/QUOTE]
