[QUOTE="badash56, post: 2734347, member: 6767"] Hey guys, I've been put on the spot to run a D&D game TODAY. Our usual DM is ill and doesn't feel up to running a game, and has asked me to do something for the group! ACK! :lol: So now I only have a few hours to come up with something to plug into the campaign. I thought I'd stop by here and see if anyone has a quick idea a group of five 4th level PCs could handle. I hate asking, but I am terribly short on time today, and don't want to dissapoint the players with a half assed adventure I make up off the top of my head. A little background: there are five people in the party all 4th level. We play in the Scarred Lands setting, and just finished the main into adventure for a new campaign. I just need something to fill in for a week, a side plot of some sorts unrelated to any big story. I can usually come up with stuff easily, but the group I paly with is very experienced and tends to get bored with generic dungeon crawl or simple linear adventures. They like to figure out things to do on their own, and then kind of fall into the adventure rather than have a plot hook slap them in the face. So what I'm hoping is someone recently ran or played in a game that could fit into this and drop just a few lines of a decent hook that I could run with. I'll take just about anything at this point. :D Its embarrassing to ask for help, but I'm just strapped for time today and only have 1 or 2 hours to throw this together, and I have to run out for some family things right now. I'll be back shortly so hopefully someone is awake and can help. :) Thanks! [/QUOTE]
