Me being me, I couldn’t settle on just one adventure – or what I  \nviewed as local side quests. Eventually, I ended up making several written quests.  \nThe following in just one of those quests. It was part of a local scene where players could play this  \none adventure and that would be the end, or they could continue with the players completing the  \nside quests in this area.  \nThe players would use prebuilt profiles, if they wanted, reveal all the missions they know, and  \nthen decide. In the first one shot, they were to make a quick decision in order to avoid being  \ncaught in a bar brawl.  \nI wanted to split these up and provide them to the community for free so that others can enjoy the  \nquest and either stick to what I created or take it a tweak it little for their own style, parties, etc.  \nThis being the first fully written quest, it seemed like a good plan to use this one.  \nFocus was on more of a setting and mission described, how players interact with the  \nenvironments, and the outcomes. There should be a mix of puzzle solving and hack and slash for  \nthis quest. That should help satisfy a few types of players out there.  \nI tried to incorporate aspects of action, suspense, and horror into the quest.  \nThe experiment is that I have never made these before and only ran one session (not this quest)  \nand I wanted to see if people enjoyed it ifI published this.  \nThis is meant to a DM to use to entertain their group of players. If I get positive feedback (at all) or  \neven critical feedback on how to make it smoother, better, etc. I will go on to make more.  \nIf not, I know maybe I should focus on something else.  \nThankyou.  \nTim  \n3/20  \nDnD OneShot-Kaney  \nContents  \nIntroduction ....................................................................................................................................... 2  \nContents ............................................................................................................................................. 3  \nQuest Overview .................................................................................................................................. 4  \nQuest Hook-Someone’s Poisoned the Watering Hole! .................................................................... 5  \nQuest Set-up-Someone’s Poisoned the Watering Hole................................................................ 6  \nCistern Level 1 ................................................................................................................................ 9  \nMain Space 1.: Main Hall – 6 Rats ............................................................................................10  \nMain Space 2.: Well shaft, Inner cloister, Safe Space ............................................................... 15  \nMain Space 3.: Supply Room.....................................................................................................16  \nMain Space 4: Western Room-Air Shaft.................................................................................. 17  \nMain Space 5: Balcony / Floor Trap ..........................................................................................18  \nMain Space 6: Cistern Level 1 Observation Deck-Spiders (x6) & Giant Spider (x2) ...............19  \nIntermission ................................................................................................................................. 22  \nResume ......................................................................................................................................... 22  \nCistern Level 2.............................................................................................................................. 24  \nMain Space 1.: Main Cistern......................................","cbCaicpuKx5Ha4P5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicpuKx5Ha4P5","pdf",203818,"English","# Contents\n## Introduction\n## Quest Overview\n## Quest Hook - Someone’s Poisoned the Watering Hole!\n## Quest Set-up - Someone’s Poisoned the Watering Hole\n## Cistern Level 1\n## Intermission\n## Cistern Level 2\n## Final Thoughts","[{\"question\":\"How long does the DnD one-shot quest take?\",\"answer\":\"The quest is designed for 4–6 hours.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of the adventure?\",\"answer\":\"Investigate the cistern contamination, clear it of monsters, and report back to earn a reward.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is the point of contact for the quest?\",\"answer\":\"The point of contact is NPC Guard Captain Feldain.\"}]","DnD OneShot-Kaney - Quest Overview - Someone’s Poisoned the Watering Hole! | PDF",1791279704]
