Lichyard Raiders

a Connaught County adventure for beginner to intermediate characters.

Half-orcs at Landsdowne raid the graves through a tunnel system, eventually discovering the city of glass or at least a foreshadowing of it.

This adventure can be begun at any location near or within Prince's Crossing, or at/near Landsdowne.

NPCs

scenes with memorable NPCs get the players emotionally invested.

  • the adventurers happen upon Urug Ironhide with a troubling problem. some "Spears" are hassling him and won't let him enter city.

Adventure goals

  1. Meet the half-orcs and either:
    1. gain their trust
    2. ransack their village
  2. discover the tunnel system
  3. gather loot
    1. magic items
    2. grimoire buried with owner
  4. lead to Remy or “Ancient Artifacts” for selling loot.

Encounters

can they gain the trust of the half-orcs? (will they try?) or can they defeat the half-orc defenses ad discover their secrets? can they kill the greider? can they kill the skeletons? can they discover skeleton weaknesses?

Foreshadowing

  • skeleton army
  • city of glass

we need to strategically add:

  • dangers to whittle down the players and add tension.
    • hazards and traps
  • obstacles - with risk of setbacks or consequence, or even failure
  • diversions
  • foreshadowing
