First Post
I'll possible be running this tomorrow (Saturday)!
I have two 1st-level PCs that I have to bring together before I start the schema series (Forgotten Forge, Shadows..., Whispers... and Grasp...). Two- to three-hour play, "on the road" side trek.
Human Artificer - A native Karrnathi, this young man never displayed the martial inclination his family demanded. That, coupled with a general dilike for Karrnath's use of undead during the Last War, has prompted him to leave Karrnath behind and head for Sharn, a wonder he wants to see with his own eyes.
Shifter Druid - A native Brelander, this woman hails from the forests in southern Breland. She feels a deep connection with the ghost tigers (white tigers) of Breland, due to her Beast Spirit (replaces animal companion). Curiosity gets the best of her as she decides to leave the forest behind and see how much of nature can be found in the cities of the world, so she sets out for Sharn.
I'd like to have these two meet and gain some XP on the road to Sharn. Maybe an Orien caravan attacked by something? I am leaning towards having Provost Bonal Geldem (the deceased scholar that starts Forgotten Forge) to meet them as well. After they meet (and before Forgotten Forge begins) the artificer will repair an inert warforged (paladin) and they'll also meet a Talenta halfling and her dinosaur mount (rogue or scout).
So, any ideas on how I can occupy the artificer human and shifter druid for a couple of hours?

Perhaps they encounter a fledgling goblin necromancer who used a magic item which backfired, and small animal skeletal undead are terrorizing a small thorp?
