The contents of 20 Things #14: Hill Giant Steading have started to appear (for free) on Raging Swan's website . Now, if you suddenly need them and you don't have your files with you, we've got you covered.
This week, we've got you covered if you'll be featuring hill giants in your campaign in the neat future. As an aside, I'll be featuring hill giants and fire giants in my campaign in the near future, which is part of the reason I wrote this supplement. Unlike the last few times when the PCs have dodged my carefully crafted 20 Things articles, this time they have no choice! The object of their quest...

Your PCs have broken into the slavers' compound and slain several of the odious guards. Before releasing the slaves, the heroes quickly stop to loot the bodies of their fallen foes. If this happens, simply whip out 20 Things to Loot from a Slaver's Body and give the PCs some loot to remember!

You know the kind of place--a village not awash with drugs, necrotic energies or even worse! He came up with Bleakflat.
