[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 5842343, member: 54846"] I was thinking about this over lunch. This idea isn't a really great Adventure, but it makes for an interesting dilemma to the PCs: A nearby village has a special bell installed in a watch tower called the Beacon of True Reflection. If any shapechanger, creature which can change its appearance, or otherwise illusioned-up thing steps into the town's limits, the bell 1) begins to ring, and 2) shine with a brilliant light. The sound of the ringing [I]hurts[/I] the shapechanger (along with alerting everyone nearby), and 2) if caught in the light, the shapechanger reveals its true form. The Unseelie Lord wants the PCs to replace the bell with a fake, or sap its magic, without alerting the town that the Beacon has been dismantled. In truth the Lord has no nefarious plans for the town. Just the fact that the town would have the [I]audacity[/I] to protect itself from the Unseelie is [I]insulting[/I]. Never mind the fact that the bell was installed after a lycanthrope terrorized the area. But don't tell the PCs the Lord's true motives; not knowing will have them creating all kinds of scenarios among themselves as to why he wants the bell sabotaged. [/QUOTE]
