Message: <blockquote data-quote="Doug McCrae" data-source="post: 5186814" data-attributes="member: 21169">Opposition to the PCs - what monsters and NPCs will they be fighting - and location.A campaign structure could easily be built out of just monsters and locations. PCs go to location X and fight monster Y.Low-level: Orcs in caves, bandits in ruins, weird D&D dungeon monsters in dungeons.Low-to-mid level: Cultists, vampires and thieves' guilds in towns.Mid level: Yuan-ti in jungles, giants in the mountains, drow and mind flayers in the underdark.High level: Demons and devils in Hell.All that's needed is you need to tie this together with some sort of plot - usually one monster is working with another or various monsters are guarding parts of a MacGuffin. But to me the plot comes afterward, it's the monsters and places that are most interesting.EDIT: Adventures are the same, except it's monsters, traps and other challenges in rooms rather than geographical locations. Mocking face in room #1, orcs in room #2, room #3 is empty, trapper in room #4, etc.</blockquote>
