For more open-world games, allowing some illusion of choice is wise. You can present a few ideas and see which ones your characters are interested in, which may let you plan your approach a little. Without further ado, here are ten quests you could offer your characters in a settled area.
- Penalties for breaking contracts will be enforced! Those leaving the city without discharging all of their debts and contracts will be severely punished. Reward offered for information leading to any individuals enticing good folk away from their homes and crafts. See the Town Council of Riverbridge. - Rare bottle of Sparrow Hill wine, TY 3015 only, sought, UNOPENED. 250 gold pieces offered if provenance can be demonstrated. Speak to Master Gwaenry at the vineyard. - Fields have been dug up by some kind of large creature! It has left holes twice the size of a large house! A witness has seen a grey-skinned beast with hide like a rock burrowing into the ground. It seems to be getting closer to town, and something will have to be done! Please slay this beast- an heirloom magical helmet has been offered by Minsus the Carpenter. - Have you seen Caden the Archaeologist? Last seen in Applegrove about three weeks ago, missing under violent circumstances. He owes money to me! Speak to Rosalinie Throne - drinks offered for useful information. - MARAUDERS seen on the East road, threatening and slaying travelers! Will someone please do something about these horrible folk? No reward, but they have taken loot from six wagons and traders so far. - Volunteers sought to give life energy for fueling the Soul Engine. Generous tax breaks offered for those who give service to the Council. Apply at the Council Hall of Riverbridge. - Mercenaries sought for territorial dispute. Reliable wages for likely two-season campaign. Speak to The Wolf, and bring your own weapons and discipline. - A boar of prodigious size has been seen in the Northwoods. Reports say it has spearheads and arrows sticking out from its hide, and scars covering its skin. It's killed three dogs in the last month, and threatened several hunters. Bringing it home as your prey will prove you to be a mighty hunter. - No traders or news have been heard from the nearby town of Brentsfield, and when I approached, there was no smoke from the chimneys, so I fled, like a coward. Please, see what you can find out and let me know how my sister Danna fares. (no name left) - A caravan of spices has gone missing on the Southern road. A reward of 2,000 gold coins is offered for its return, as well as award of the contract for the useless guards which had been guarding it. Speak to the Merchants' Council of Applegrove for more details. Also posted on Game Masters Stash on 30 May 2019. Comments are closed.
