Message: <blockquote data-quote="RangerWickett" data-source="post: 3079431" data-attributes="member: 63">I'm trying to plan my game for this Saturday, and I've been short on time lately. What the basic premise is, is that the PCs are all from the same town, located in a remote wilderness, and over a year ago a group of older and more experienced townsfolk went out to try to find other people, since right now the town is isolated. They were supposed to have been back by now, so the PCs got a town mage to tax herself in order to scry on the travelers, and now they're setting out to rescue them.The nearest of the missing travelers is Itana, a warrior skilled with horses, who according to the divination is in dark woods to the south. The PCs are going to go look for her, their first long-term expedition outside the town.All I have thought up so far is that while the first group was traveling, things went awry, one of their number was killed, and they scattered. Itana tried to make it back to the village, but got off course a bit, and ended up in a fey-controlled woodland where she was captured by a cruel dark fey with a sick sense of humor. This fey (for whom I need a name) creates animal-human hybrids, one of which the PCs already ran across. It was something like a minotaur crossed with a centaur (so the PCs are calling it, tongue-in-cheek, a senator), made when the fey crossed a bull with a humanoid demon. It attacked the town and was killed, and the PCs assume it was some weird type of demon.Itana got captured, and was transformed into a centaur, but one where the horse intelligence struggles for dominance. She wanders the woods to the south in despair, unable to bring herself to return home and seek help.Other ideas I have are a medusa-like fey whose gaze slowly turns people to wood, and a man who wanders the dark forest with a lantern that holds his soul, which glows like a flame.I'm looking for ideas, scenes, and plots to help me brainstorm how to craft this adventure. The party is 4th level, and big, consisting of a necromancer, a craftmage, a bard/paladin, a monk/ranger, a monk/rogue, a spooky rogue, and a fighter. The spooky rogue is actually something like a vampire, though he doesn't fully understand it, and I want his hunger to take over him during this adventure.I'm shooting for a bit of fey horror and a bit of silliness, with at least one awesome fight scene. Any suggestions?</blockquote>
