What if she is a succubus who is out to destroy both religious factions, or has some other motivations? I suppose her spell casting powers, if she has any could be granted by a higher level demon or even a demon lord? Or maybe the nun is just possessed by a succubus. Which ever I would suspect that there would need to be good reason for her to give up the vow of chastity (if she took one) and more than likely be some repercussions from doing so.
I've seriously considered a plot where a succubus was trying to influence the holy order, but it didn't seem very plausible to me that a succubus would be able to hide its alignment from an entire holy order of paladins.
What I came up with is that the nuns of this religion do not have to make a vow of chastity, but they do make a vow of purity (which still means that they shouldn't be sleeping with a pirate). The nun was obsessed with the pc and treated him like some kind of religious savior. However, sleeping with the pc will absolutely be frowned upon by the head of her order and they will probably have found out about it by now.
Another plot I've considered, is that perhaps a fey is among the order who is some form of good alignment, but she seeks to ruin them. But perhaps all these plots are a bit too cookie cutter. I'm leaning towards something more complicated and insidious.
What program do you use? I need more maps, and even though I am using a published campaign, I have not been happy with the reams of stuff already available -- too cluttered and too hard to read the labeling when printed out.
I use Photoshop, along with some free fonts and clipart for the icons.
Still assuming that the forest is the major resource, what other products would the city export besides lumber?
Charcoal?
Furs?
Rare herbs/plants that only grow there?
That is a good question. The holy order has quite a loyal and fanatical following among the common people. I think there would be quite a large number of skilled artisans in this city, such as wood cutters, weavers and leather workers. The holy order encourages hard labor for the faith. So the city probably produces a lot of manufactored products and food such as furniture, wagons, weapons, tools, baskets, clothes, rugs, blankets, wine, bread.
The ironically named "Holy Quarter" is where all the cut throats and pirates live, right? The only thing I see lacking on the map is a graveyard with a mausoleum leading to the crypts.
The Holy Quarter is so named because a lot of holy processions take place in this district. Although considering its proximity to the harbor, it may be home to all manner of people, and not all of them trustworthy. It would be ironic if the holy quarter has the most crime.
While the map does have a graveyard on it in the south west, I think it may need more now that I think of it. Good call.
