This download includes both the 1st edition and 2nd edition versions of this book.
Even the smallest town has more locations than all but the most diligent and time-rich GM could ever hope to detail and design. To make matters even worse, when an adventuring party gets to a town or city, the characters often have the irritating habit of going off exploring. What’s a GM to do? Designed specifically for you, the busy GM, the mini-eventures herein help you bring depth and flavour to your characters’ next urban adventure. This compilation is designed for use with City Backdrop: Languard, but can be easily used in virtually any town or city.
This compilation presents the first 14 mini-eventures:
A Day Out at High Market
A Day Out at Low Market
Dining at the Emerald Medusa

What’s a Mini-Eventure?
A mini-eventure is like a normal eventure but smaller! An eventure is akin to a normal adventure, but does not (normally) feature violence or physical challenges. Instead, an eventure focuses on the use of social skills and role-play to resolve the challenges, or events, therein. Most eventures take places in a settlement or on the road. Few occur in traditional adventure locales such as dungeons, ruined castles and so on.
Eventures are an excellent change of pace and can be used as filler between adventures or as situations in which characters who have invested in social skills can shine. They are also perfect for players who enjoy role-playing.
The mini-eventures in this book are all set in Languard, capital of Ashlar but, with minimal work, they could be set in virtually any town or city.
