Here in Ames, IA, we had another VEISHEA riot. Cops were all decked out in riot gear, and I experienced Tear Gas for the first time in my life. Btw--washing with Milk is a good way to ease the burning)A good time was had by all. :\
Anyway,
This actually gave me ideas for an adventure.
Peasants are rioting in a medieval city because of some threat the PCs have to face. The PCs have to somehow "get through" the rioting to their goal.
On the way they'd face:
--Town guards mistaking them as rioters.
--A wizard casting "Stinking Cloud" to disperse rioters.
--Innocents becoming victims.
--Burning buildings/hay wagons/etc.
The only question I have are:
What would cause peasants to riot? Back in the day, the avg peasant was fearful of his lord or lady. To riot might bring ex-communication.
How would a good church (say of Pelor) address the situation?
If the peasants were serfs, would their lord get upset for having to destroy his "property?"
