Just something that popped into my head today. Use it in
your next hex crawl and see if the PCs (or more correctly, the players) pick up
what you’re putting down.
Hex XXXX: A shallow grave lies in an overgrown thicket that
stands here alongside the river. Excavating the grave reveals the rotted,
mostly skeletal corpse of a halfling. His tattered clothing identifies him as
being a River Halfling in life. A careful examination of the corpse discovers he
was strangled to death.
Very nice. Makes me wish I thought of it. ;)
ReplyDeleteMe thinks there is a ring of truth to this story, it rings true...
ReplyDeleteOne thing I love about the open sandbox is the ability to drop things like this in there.
ReplyDeleteA random grave in the Japanese version of Final Fantasy 1 says: "Here Lies Link".
ReplyDeleteIn the American version it's a Dragon Warrior character.
Hah!
ReplyDeleteNice! This is definitely going to be in my sandbox :p
ReplyDeleteI'm not picking up what you're putting down. Not sure if I should be ashamed.
ReplyDeleteWould it help if I told you the dead hobbit was murdered for his unwillingness to give his friend a birthday present?
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhhh!
ReplyDeleteNice. I forgot about that.
ReplyDeleteCreatures like halflings, but the only one we know of was awful and tried to ruin the adventure...clearly they were kender.
