Pathfinder Adventure: Troubles in Otari (P2)

Product Information

The Otari Guard keeps the peace in town, and their leader is the gruff and stout Captain Lardus Longsaddle. Any heroes who get in trouble with the Otari Guard should hope to deal with anyone other than the captain—his curse-laden tirades are legendary, and he’s inclined to issue short jail sentences for minor infractions. Conversely, heroes who catch criminals earn a rare (though often short-lived) position on Captain Longsaddle’s good side, earning bounties from the captain’s pay chest. Fighters might have trained with the Otari Guard or aspired to join their ranks. Smiling as Tannakin compared his use of Taldane to an old book. Leo liked old books, as a matter of fact, all the books he had read were old books. He couldn't remember seeing a new one. Raising an eyebrow when the elf called Taldane' Leo's 'own tongue' Leo responded in Elvish. see below Relieved the topic was changing to the 'tree-fort,' as Tannakin moved towards the two ropes, Leo got up and followed her. Naturally curious about machines of all sorts, he watched as she raised the trapdoor and lowered the box of food. Nodding as she explained the need to keep it way from the local wildlife. Accepting a handful of raisins from Tannakin he returned to his chair while Ambrose partook of the water and sausage. Smiling as she asked about the accommodations in the tree house, he was impressed with the two elves generosity, responding in Elvish as he waived his hand gesturing towards the tree house. Elvish response is again printed below :) As such, I would guess Otari will be like Etran's Folly or Kassen or, for that matter, Sandpoint or Falcon's Hollow the first time we met them: a town no one's ever heard of before where an adventure is now being set. I don't believe Paizo requires you to own Burnt Offerings or Hollow's Last Hope to run any of the later adventures set in the same towns; they've reprinted the information you need for the module.

The old hills and forests around Otari have been inhabited since long before the town existed. Fallen fortresses of wouldbe warlords, dankbarrows crawling with undead, and caves filled with monsters and forgotten treasure lie within a few hours’ walk of Otari. Many locals have heard the rumors of danger and treasure in the Otari hinterlands, and it’s up to adventurers to discover whether these tales hold any truth! And Tannakin was born within the year. She’s the oldest of a small swarm of brothers and sisters. Eliel and Gregg have decided to get their money’s worth out of their time together. Troubles in Otari's three adventures, written by Jason Keeley, Lyz Liddell, and Ron Lundeen, start at 2nd level and take your heroes to 4th level and beyond as they venture further into the nearby wilderness and face fearsome foes lurking all too close to home! Flume. Whistledown Cutters is Otari’s most financially successful lumber company due to the cunning business sense of its owner, Alymora Inkleholtz. Chertel Timber, the third company, has recently struggled due to a combination of poor management, labor issues in its lumber camps, and difficulties with financing. All three lumber companies have a not-so-secret enemy in the Kortos Consortium, an externally based organization that wants to control the timber industry in Otari and many nearby communities. The Kortos Consortium isn’t above sabotage or worse to seize control of local interests. Heroes might find work for any of these lumber companies, often against the others! Drag and drop treasure parcels and Encounter XP that is easily awarded to your players to keep the game moving aheadAnd so, it has come to pass that a beautiful young elven woman of 18 is being lectured by her parents. Her parents, both past their second century, had hoped she would be as sensible as they always have been (or at least, as sensible as they’d been for the last 180 years). They’ve long repressed their memories of their own fiery passionate youth, and now they find themselves repressing someone else’s youth. About a week ago, I made a post asking about some good intro material for the game, and between the responses and my own research I decided to buy the beginner box while it was on sale and use that for my groups foot in the door for the system. The heroes are likely to encounter some of the following groups or individuals during their adventures in or near Otari. Even a town as small and comfortable as Otari has its fair share of dangerous places nearby that many locals know to avoid. That makes them perfect places for adventurers to investigate! The Giant’s Wheel has belonged to the Menhemes family for generations, but it isn’t exclusively used by the Otari Mill. The other two lumber

A sign over the door to this two-story stone building depicts a group of drunk crows perched on a leaky cask. Crow’s Casks is more than just a tavern—it’s a brewery and a shrine to Cayden Cailean, the god of heroes, bravery, and ale. Its proprietor, Magiloy, is a retired pirate who enjoys experimenting with new drinks. She’s always looking for enthusiastic customers to taste her newest concoctions.Word has begun to spread around Otari that there’s a problem down at the Otari Fishery. Some are saying that some sort of beast is lurking in the basement, feeding on the stores of salted fish. Folks are worried that whatever is eating the fish might get hungry enough to eat the fishers next! The primary smithy in town specializes in crafting saws, axes, and other tools used in the lumber trade, but the skilled smiths here also produce quality armor, shields, and weapons. The owner of Blades for Glades is a misanthropic man named Carman Rajani, who’s as happy to sell a sword to split an orc as a hatchet to fell a tree. He’s descended from one of Otari’s founders and believes himself entitled to better treatment from the townspeople than his surly demeanor earns him.
