Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot
About the adventure
BEGINNERS WELCOME! Recently, a peculiar bounty has been posted at the Hunter's State in Baldur's Gate, four adventurers have allegedly attempted to murder one of the four dukes of the city, leading to a city-wide chase to see who will be the Bounty Hunter that gets the 20.000 gold pieces and bring justice to The Gates. You and your allies have decided to form a group dedicated precisely to this task, with 3-6 of Baldur's Gate most valiant up-and-coming hunters, you will take on the mission to bring the wanted to justice, dead or alive. Luckily, the Hunt Master has taken a liking to your group, giving you some tips to start your search. Apparently, the criminals went to different parts of the city to lie low, so you will have to search high and low across Baldur's Gate to find them. This so-called Adventurers were a formidable group, maybe even better than yours, so them being separated marks the perfect time to get them before they can regroup.
Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
