10 Adventure and Encounter Ideas

For more adventure ideas see the net.plot.books, which provide a lot more plots. I am told these are available via FTP from ftp.cs.pdx.edu in the directory /pub/frp/general. Here are some to be getting on with:

1. One of the PC's starts losing strength, there is only one antidote...
2. "This sword!? It spoke to me!.."
3. One of the PC's see someone who looks like him, follows, and sees the look-alike get killed. The killers say "that's three, two more to go."
4. Someone comes up to a PC and tells him that he is now the next in line to the throne of Zlah-bun, because the previous heir has gone missing. After a bungled assassination of the PC, they find out the previous heir has been kidnapped by the 3rd in line.
5. As the party go over the crest of the hill to look at the city, they find it is gone. Not destroyed, but actually removed, leaving a perfect symmetrical hole.
6. The island has been shrouded in a cloud ever since the battle between two evil wizards 100 years ago. Somewhere on this island is the egg of the Quetzal-Xuateal, needed for...
7. A noble says "look after my daughter"...

9. It was a strange new religion. As it's priests walked the land, the worshippers spread like wild-fire. Their god spoke to their inner desires, their greed and their hate. The priests gained power, respect, and soon the avatar would be upon us.
10. "Take them to the arena..!"
