Tormel Salted Wheat Farm Encounter Maps
Hey all. Long time. I've since deactivated my FB account and wanted to share a new set of maps I just finished in case anyone wanted to poach them. Sadly, I cannot put them in the Atlas, as they have been created using some personal fills and symbols.
Tormel Farm is located in the heart of the Salt Shaker region, where salted waters enrich the earth cultivating the special, regional Salted Wheat. One of our heroes left his family farm to join the military and left his duties to his sister, who unfortunately has been wooed by one of the big bads in my campaign and is under the influence of evil and is producing tainted wheat. Adam has resounded to destroy the farm in order to save the realm, hopefully killing Peter Unger, who took advantage of his sister and managed to marry her and take control of the Tormel Family Farm.
I wasn't sure what exactly they are planning, but i figured i'd give them a farmhouse, a silo and some fields to burn. Maybe some scarecrows to animate?
Any other ideas for some battle? I know my team WILL be using fire, as one of the players is a descendant of Asmodeus and burns everying to cinders, lol

Is that tainted wheat REALLY flammable? Could be a nasty surprise when they start torching the first part, and suddenly everything almost explodes in flames around them :)
Hmm.....well, the ground has been fertilized with Libations of Lunacy, a potion that infects the land and the druid/rangers that are bound to protect them. Perhaps I can create some kind of reaction with Zora's arcane flames that will backfire on them.......
If there are infected druids that protect the Wheat, it could simply be protected from fire, maybe it will even be fretilized by it, making it grow faster and spread the taint, until the focus point of the druidic ritual ist destroyed (which ideally would be sometjing the players have seen before and ignored as unimportant)
There is a theory that the elixir offered to initiates in the Eleusinian Mysteries of the ancient Greek and Roman world was made with tainted wheat, presumably for its hallucinogenic qualities. Just imagine the effect of burning all this. Hehehe.
Welcome back, Christina. You have been missed. Hope your arm is mending. I miss your fulminations on FB.
