Sidequest Decks – Frontier Town Quests
These mini-adventures are designed for a fantasy frontier, in a mountainous arctic area. 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 use your original NPCs and settings. You can get more ideas and support by combining them with our NPC Portraits Deck: Frontier Town describing Icebreath Ridge. 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 grow their roles once characters choose them as friends—or enemies.
Two Events!
In addition, there are sidequests based around a big 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 vast sinkhole yawns open near the town overnight! What lies below?
- Spring does not come. Ice and hunger cover the land. Can the town survive?
