A Simple Rescue
 |
Carissa Leonidsa and her brother¸ Bertram were just on their way to deliver a wagon full of goods when they were attacked by orcs. Now Carissa is alone on the road looking for help¸ revenge¸ or both.
There's more to discover than a couple of orcs or even a wagonload of supplies. Inside the home of the would-be raiders lies certain death and certain rewards for those strong enough to claim them.
A Simple Rescue is an introductory adventure meant to teach the core game-play mechanics of the Forbidden Lands role-playing game¸ and cannot be played without the Forbidden Lands Player's Handbook.
With only a few creature tweaks¸ I have used A Simple Rescue to teach people how to play Earthdawn¸ Hyperborea¸ and Forbidden Lands. Even if you don't want to use it as an instructional adventure¸ A Simple Rescue fits in wonderfully as a detour (side quest) or as an introductory adventure to run at a convention.
