Having got out of the deep dungeon, returned from the dragon hunt, or completed an important order of the king, the heroes need rest. Uncomfortable sleeping bag in a hastily set up camp only adds bruises in the night; food taken for the journey loses its taste on the third day, and you can't feel your feet from the continuous walking. But it's not so in the city. A warm bed, tasty hot meals, and long days of spending gold in the shops of local craftsmen. Though even here there are problems, of which the heroes may become a part.
SECRET CITY ADVENTURE
The continent skillfully hides a lot of secrets, unveiling of which can grant the wanderers access to what they want. Hidden deep in the wild forest, the hidden city of an ancient civilization is described only in legends, but one can also find the way to it. The city itself hides a lot of mysteries, and the Ancient Spirits that protect its wealth will not give them away without a fight. Will the heroes manage to get what they want by passing the deadly trials and avoiding the traps of the Secret City?
HOOKS
Adventures of heroes begin before reaching the Secret City. It is important not only to learn about the city's location but also to answer the question - how to get there?
Secret knowledge. Even the search for the secret city can be a thrilling adventure. Only having collected the necessary fragments of information, the heroes will finally learn where the city is located and how to get inside.
SEARCH FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE CITY
1. The library in the sunken dungeon contains a description of the area around the city.
2. An old outcast traveler in impassable swamps will show the forest where the city is located.
3. A visionary monk from the desert will share the features of the way to the city.
4. A destroyed temple on the top of a high mountain keeps a sorcerer's diary that tried to solve the mystery of entering the city.
Secret paths. Set out in search for the Secret city in the distant and forgotten lands, the heroes should be wary - the local wild forests and swamps have not been crossed by a human for a long time. Here, wildlife feels someone else's presence very well. Unwanted travelers will face the dangers they are not used to and the creatures they have never seen before.
WAY TO THE CITY EVENTS
1. The weather is getting worse. The storm is about to reach the heroes, bringing them off the trail and increasing the way for several days.
2. The forest around confuse the heroes' minds - each of them sees something different in the depths of the it, something that distracts them from the road and leads them away.
3. The birds around the heroes went mad and try to take away the heroes' personal belongings and carry them to their nests on a high tree.
4. Predators regularly disturb the heroes' rest, preventing them from resting and having a break. As soon as they weaken enough, the predators will attack the camp.
We are not alone here. An important part of the adventure is the fact that the heroes are not the only ones who learned about the Secret city. They are opposed by the Order, led by a strong leader with resources and connections.
The Order's leader should be familiar to the heroes, and his own plans should be clear and opposite to the group's plans.
Does the secret place have a great treasure? He needs it to implement more ambitious plans.
An artifact of power that should not fall into the hands of evil? He wants to seize it and use it for his own purposes.
Unraveling the mystery of the city will open a mysterious portal? He wants to use it to hurt not only the heroes but also what they care about.
The betrayal scenario will also work - the heroes' ally who helps in searching for the city turns out to be the agent of the Order. As soon as he knows enough information, he disappears early in the morning. It is important only to invent a character your group can trust.
MORE PROBLEMS
Having passed the dangers, the heroes are about to approach the city. They will be surprised to find traces of other people on their way. It seems that the Order found the Secret city before them.
