Dangerous Scenario: Protect the Ale, Destroy the Menagerie
Added 2024-11-28 03:39:53 +0000 UTCFiendish chaos awaits at the Emberstone Tavern: transmuted devils masquerading as a wholesome traveling menagerie! This infernal secret can break up a long journey, add depth to a city, or interrupt a shopping trip with ease. Devilishly designed for 5 PCs of 6th–8th level by Mell Black, illustrated by Rafael Benjamin, and featuring the cartography of Dyson Logos.

Bitsalina can kick things off after noticing there's something wrong, but you could also have a bystander freak out and then suffer a painful, grisly death that compels the party to protect others as the place turns into a massacre. If you want to draw it out a bit instead, gradually make the subtler influence of the fiends (smell of brimstone, strange shadows, an aggressive energy roiling in the air) more and more noticeable while dropping more hints from conversation about the cultists' true (evil) motives. Then when it's time to draw swords if the party are hesitant have Bitsalina (or the fiends!) make the first move.
