[QUOTE="ExploderWizard, post: 5473156, member: 66434"] Good stuff here folks :D Ok I finally got home from work so I can actually contribute to my own thread now. [B]The hill giants have eyes[/B] The party should be traveling through rugged mountainous terrain. While moving through the trail, rocks begin flying in and killing mounts and pack animals (preferably knocking them off a nearby cliff) After a moment the attack stops with the PCs largely unharmed but without much equipment or supplies. Shortly thereafter some deep gutteral hooting is heard from far away. The party is then stalked and harassed by a 12 foot tall Michael Berryman and his cronies. :] They will seek to use hit and run tactics to maximize the time that the party can be terrorized before beginning a determined assault. [B]What just happened here?[/B] This encounter takes place along any stretch of country road with villages in the vicinity. Ahead in the distance a child no older than 8 or so is standing in the road. He/she has glowing green eyes and blood spattered all down the chin and front of his/her clothing. Upon being noticed, the PC's will see the child quickly fleeing into the woods morphing into a jackrabbit while running....... The village just up the road is deserted. No bodies, no blood, nothing. There is evidence of very recent occupation [B]The Joker[/B] The PCs meet a rather normal looking traveler along a road heading in the same direction as them. He will be pleasant enough and request that he be allowed to travel with the PCs for safety and to exchange news and such. As the journey continues and conversation gets going he will begin randomly insult those he is speaking with. If the insults are ignored or laughed off he will bid the PCs farewell after an hour or so and head in another direction. If anyone responds in anger, the joker will goad them on trying desparately to be struck by the victim. If the joker is struck in anger the person so doing will be cursed. The joker will follow them everywhere spewing vile insults until the curse is removed. The joker is of course immune to damage and magic, and also incapable of causing physical harm. [/QUOTE]
