Sidequest Decks – Coastal Town Quests

These mini-adventures are designed for a fantasy coastline. Use them to populate a hex crawl, fill out a campaign, or inspire one-shot games. When players steer away from your prepared encounters, use sidequests to offer alternatives!

The adventures can stand alone and use your original NPCs and settings. You can get more inspiration and support by combining them with our NPC Portraits Deck: Coastal Townsfolk describing Finshadow Bay.

Fifty-one sidequests were inspired by a matching card in the NPC deck, so you can expand on the secrets and needs of those NPCs. You can use sidequests to introduce them or to expand their roles once characters choose them as friends—or enemies.

Two Events!

In addition, there are sidequests based around a major event that affects the whole area! One card explains the situation, and nine adventures provide threats and opportunities. Offer them to players in any order, and let them be part of the changes in your dynamic setting.

  • A mysterious island rises from the sea as wrecks surface and ghost ships appear.
  • The threat of a ceaseless storm approaches the coast. Will it erase the port?
