CARTED AWAY or RABBIT TRAIL
ADVENTURE SYNOPSIS
A local Wizard needs some items delivered
as quickly as possible form Stolregard to
Deleran’s Crossing. They cannot be
magically transported and they are
extremely fragile. They have been loaded
into a cart and the players must perform
an escort. The items are perishable, and
the reward will depend on how much of
what is being transported survives the
journey. They will be harassed on several
counts by various creatures and events,
including a detour to the Feywild to find
a missing rabbit.
Target Party and Level: 4 level 3 players
Expected Playtime Playtime: 2-3 Hours
Tone: Light Hearted-Silly
Easter Flavoring: But they won’t know that till
the end. And it is easily adjustable if it isn’t
Easter Season
PLAYING AN A.O.G. ADVENTURE
I thought it wise to give you some notes on how I write my
adventures. Cuz I do some stuff non traditional like.
Setting Almost all my adventures are set in my Homebrew
World of Taalist. That said… Almost all of my Adventures can
be easily ported into your location of choice. If you would like
to play in Taalist my Campaign Guide (All 150+ Pages of it)
can be accessed on our Discord for Patreon Members.
Background and Hook portion can be used as you see fit.
Each one is a little different, so its hard for me to say when
best to use them. Some will play better if you can get them
into the hands of the players before the game. Others may
have better influence when read just after the Cutscene. But
as in all things you do what is best for your game! That is
always the way to go.
Acts I divide my adventures into Acts. An Act doesn’t
necessarily reflect an amount of time, but more of an
important series of events or locations. Some Acts may take 5
minutes, some 5 hours. Why? I dunno, ask the players who
over complicate simple matters and simplify the overly
complex.
DCs I don’t spend a lot of time defining DCs as I play with a
bit wider scale of success and failures. What does that mean?
So for reference the DC scale in 5E looks like this....
Very Easy DC5
Easy DC10
Medium DC15
Hard DC20
Very Hard DC25
Nearly Impossible DC30
When I list a DC I will tell you it is Hard. But Hard for one
party may be easy for another so I leave the actual number
value up to you. I also play with a “Success but with
Consequences” mentality so if they get close they still
accomplish their goal but there is a “but” to that success. An
Example? Hard Stealth DC is 20, they roll an 18, I tell them
“You sneak past the guard you see but the guard you didn’t
see heard something and is headed your way.” I think it adds
more to the story that way.
Search Checks When the players want to “search”
something or for something I let them use either
Investigation or Perception. I know that isn’t RAW but it just
makes things so much easier. I got real tired of explaining to
players who have been playing with me for years the
difference between the two… just let them look for stuff!
Cutscene I like to start my games with an Opening Cutscene
which is read before anything else happens. These are
usually really vague bits of information that give a glimpse
into something that will maybe happen later, happened
before the adventure, or is story adjacent to it. I have found
these to be great tools to set the mood and create a little
mystery.
Monster Stats I also don’t bother to list off stats for
creatures from the Monster Manual or other official sources.
I assume you have the book… or the internet.
Skill Challenges What is that? It is an event in the game that
isn’t quite an encounter and it isn’t a simple skill check. It is a
problem they solve with their whole skill set. Typically they
must get three successes before three failures in order to
succeed in a skill check. The thing about a Skill challenge is
they’re are vague on purpose to allow players to be creative in
solving a problem. An example may help here.
Leaky Boat Skill Challenge
DM says “Your Boat is taking on water. What
would you like to do?”
Player 1 responds with “I use my carpentry
tools to fix the hole” and they make a Tool
Check. But they roll a 2 so they fail. Too much
water.
Player 2 says “ want to row harder with the
crew to get us toward shore faster” They make
an Athletics Check and roll an 18. So that is a
success.
Player 3 “I use Destroy Water to get water out”
OK, well it only destroys 10 gallons so it isn’t
super helpful, but the momentary reprieve
allows a little drywork to happen and allow
player 1 to reroll.
Stuff like this.

 ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION
This is a pretty straightforward setup. Take the job. Take the
items to the delivery point. I have separated the adventure
structure into six acts. Other than taking the job the only real
big “must do” point is getting them into the Feywild. Which
can easily be accomplished by simply having them woods
shuffle around pushing them toward the village without them
even realizing. This can happen even if they are actively trying
not to let it happen because… Fey magic. Ta dah!
ACT 1: The Job Application
ACT 2: Log in the Road
ACT 3: Displacer’ed Goods
ACT 4: Feywild Detour
ACT 5: The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing
ACT 6: Race to the finish
BACKGROUND and HOOK
Sitting in a taverne one could overhear a tale. Like so many
before it, this one starts with a memory … “It all happened
just about a year ago in Deleran’s Crossing.”
It had been relatively quiet in the Barony. The Adventurer’s
Guild has been active enough, I suppose. They had recently
dealt with a few minor convergences. One unleashed a
swarm of, well meaning but dumber than average kobolds, on
Grey Oak. The other a wandering Stone Giant down near
The Still Marsh, who just wanted to find someplace in the
hills to sit down for a little rest over the next three four
Hundred years. Nothing too out of the ordinary.
And then a Traveling Merchant went missing on the Baron’s
Highway. And then another. And another …
In the past two months someone or something has managed
to snatch up three merchants and leave behind no evidence.
No witnesses, no signs of struggle, no clues at all. Even
scrying attempts have come up empty handed. There are
dozens of tradesmen, farmers, and merchants that use this
highway on a weekly basis. No one had any idea what
happened to these three.
The Baroness increased patrols on the highway. But they
have turned up nothing. The Adventurer’s guild has sent two
teams into the woods. They found a goblin nest but no
evidence of the missing merchants or their goods. They also
found a patch of very angry awakened grass… otherwise
nothing.
The people have begun talking. A dangerous magical
convergence? Unlikely, the Arch mage would know if that
were the case. Bandits? Perhaps… but the Baroness cracks
down on banditry pretty hard, but it happens. What if it is
something worse, something unnatural? There were
whispers of a nameless fear lurking in the woods. Rumors of
shadows and specters haunting the highway. Talk of covens of
Hags and witches curses circulated. But no one really knew
the answer. And in light of the lack of answers, many
merchants took to hiring on guards and mercenaries to
protect them as they travel the roads of the normally quiet
Barony.
And this was where you entered the story. You’ve shown up
for a job interview. You need the cash and you’re willing to
work for it. So far no guarded travelers have gone missing. It
should have been relatively safe. It should have been easy.
2
You’ve heard a mage is going to arrive in the morning on a
boat and is looking to safely and quickly get a cartload of
“time sensitive components” to Arch Mage Pieter Bonniet in
Deleran’s Crossing. The job is paying 100gp, with very hefty,
hundreds of gold more type hefty, bonuses for speedy
delivery. Apparently the components begin to decay over time
so the faster the better. The pay seems awful high for a three
day walk down a road, and easy coin is wonderful coin. And
with that much coin easily gained… there are going to be a
LOT of applicants.
IMPORTANT LOCATIONS
I will give a little better description and provide maps if there
are any of these locations in the Appendices.
Durrand: The starting town, a small river port.
Deleran’s Crossing: Ending location, a large Capital Town
The Road: A three day stretch of forest highway
The Fey Village: They will end up within sight of the village
to prevent to much mayhem
The Blighted Canyon: Where the “Boss” is waiting.
IMPORTANT NPCs
I will give a little better description and provide necessary
Stat Blocks of these NPCs in the Appendices. Local
Ruffians: Ricky, Carl, Dom, Brit, and Jackie are a few of the
locals that alos badly want this job.
Ferlonious the Wizard: The Halfling that wants to hire
some guards.
Barney Cartman: He owns and drives the cart. He also has a
big crossbow named Sugar.
Bob the Camel: An awakened Camel they may meet on the
road or in the Fey Village. Bob is sort of a “cowardly Lion”
type of character.
Randy Imamoose: Randy is an awakened moose and a
powerful Druid who runs the Fey Village.
Rabbit 386: Awakened Bunny. They’ll be tasked to find and
free this little feller.
Arch Algren the Goblin: The Wizard awaiting the delivery of
the materials.

OPENING CUT-SCENE
It lurks in the bushes waiting for an opportunity.
Coming down the road is a wagon. Opportunity.
There is a knot in its stomach as it prepares to
throw itself out of the bushes. But if everything
goes according to plan dinner would be on the
table tonight.
Where is the Cargo? The boat will arrive the next
morning and then they need to be off as fast as possible

the stuff listed in NPCs. Up to you.
NPC INTRO: Barney Cartman and his Wagon Shiela
As they approach the docks they will see Barney unloading
his wagon. He will be short with the players but friendly. It
will be obvious he wants to get moving

Once they make it to the end of the line they will meet

face an extreme challenge... lol... just kidding we need them to
succeed here. So make the interview silly and odd.
SKILL CHALLENGE: Pass the job interview.
You can ask really any questions you want here. But I have
suggested a few. Hopefully they get the job… otherwise this is
a short adventure.
What skill do you have?
Why do you think I should hire you?
What is your favorite color?
What kind of balloon animal are you?
EVENT 3: You’re hired!
They’re probably going to ask some questions and then go do
town stuff. The next morning Ferlonious The Wizard will
meet them at the docks and introduce them to Barney
Cartman.
What is the Cargo? It is the eggs of a magical beast from
beyond the Malevolent Deeps.0They are used in powerful
enchanting.

 ACT 03: Displacer’d Goods
Our next stop along the road will bea wrecked cart of onions.
(Almost anytime my players run into a unimportant merchant
on the road it is some guy selling onions) You can decide if
this happens day one or the morning of day two on the trip. I
usually make that call depending on how hurt they were from
the fight with the locals. Their first suspicion will likely be
that this whatever this is, it is the cause of the
“disappearances” but it isn’t. There are displacer beasts
lurking nearby. They have just recently killed Onion Buddy
and will leave with the body if they players don’t threaten
them. However, if the players begin to seriously investigate
the scene the beasts will attack, going for the horses first.
This is intended to be a hard encounter. If you think it may be
too much for your players, have one of the beasts make off
with the corpse. Remember, having the beasts focus first on
getting the horses gives the players a free round or two on
them.
EVENT 5: The Wrecked Cart.
They will spot the cart from some distance away and will
begin to make plans. They will almost certainly want to
investigate.
SKILL CHECK: Varied Medium Checks
Unless they take some well thought out precautions, any
actions like these will trigger the attack.
Survival will tell them that there is a large cat of some
kind nearby.
Medicine will tell them that the kill is very fresh, less than
10 minutes
Search will allow them to spot the beast. And eliminate
the Displacers getting Surprise.
SKILL CHALLENGE: Runaway Cartman
Bad news friends… the horses were spooked and took off.
And the displacer beasts are giving chase. Good news DM!
This makes for a really fun fast paced runaway wagon and
combat event!
ENCOUNTER: Displacer Beasts
ACT 04: Feywild Detour
This will likely be the longest Act in the Adventure.
Sometime in the afternoon on day two they players are going
to discover where the missing merchants really got off to. A
small village of Animal Folk in the Feywild is in trouble. They
have been sending out crab grass to try and get people to
come help, but the grass isn’t very good at getting help…
Recently they changed tactics and sent out Bob the Camel.
“I just don’t know where I stand with grass. Plus, its so
quiet…” (Google "SNL Googly Eyes Gardener" if you didn't
get the reference, it is 100% worth your time)
DM NOTE: My guess is most of these adventurers have
not ever seen a Camel, so I try and let them figure out
what it is. And in doing so I’ve actually found it quite
difficult to describe a Camel-Folk individual without
blatently saying "It is a Camel". Experiment!*
4
Now don’t forget to emphasize the odd normality
and simple wonderment of the Feywild. Its like a
dream, but one drawn with crayons and colored
pencils with a lot of nakedness and revelry and
talking things that shouldn’t talk. The Feywild and
the people there are all about living their best life.
At least for them… and while a lot of the folk here
are kind and gentle, there are plenty that celebrate
having no rules that say you can’t hurt others to
live what they see as their best life. The Feywild is
the realm of merry satyrs and whimsical pixies and
it is also the realm of vile hags and angry fairies. It
is beautiful, and beauty can be very very misleading
and dangerous.
EVENT6: Was that a Camel?
They’ll catch a glimpse of Bob sneaking through the woods.
Now, Bob is a coward. He came to the Prime to do this job
because things in the Feywild are headed downhill fast. But
this feller is gonna run and hide the moment people come
near him. Following Bob is the fastest way into the Feywild.
POSSIBLE SKILL CHALLENGE: Follow that thing?
The DC level for this challenge should be Very Hard. Why?
because we want them to get lost chasing him. That moves
them into the Feywild. Now it is entirely possible that they
won't bite on this hook, and that is ok, if they don't just move
on. They can meet Bobin the village later.
EVENT 7: We’re not in Kansas
anymore Barney
Whether or not they followed Bob, the world around them is
changing. The light is somehow brighter. The smells are
livelier. The birdsong is... songier? (Just go with it.) Whether
on the road or in the woods they have slipped into the
Feywild. If they are on foot and left Barney behind they will
worry, but oh well, Barney will have to make do for now.
Either way they find that their path has changed. Have them
walk down this path for a while, and let them know for sure
by now if you haven’t already that they are in the Fey. If they
try to leave the path, they simply find it again. Direction here
doesn’t work like they are used to.
SKILL CHECK: Determine where you are
There is a good chance they'll want to roll to figure out what
is happening to them. There are several skills that they could
use to do so, but I think at this point making the DC Hard is
the way to go.
POSSIBLE RANDOM ENCOUNTER?: This would be
a wonderful place for some sort of random
encounter. Remember everyone in the Fey wants
something in return for something. A few ideas
would be... a Satyr Bard who wants them to listen
to his song. A Nymph calling them to her pool. A
Hag disguised as an old granny selling candy. Ahhh
the Fey… my second favorite playground. I think I
love it because it reminds me so much of my first
love… Gothic Horror.
EVENT 8: The Village MAPS: Randy's Village and the Blighted Canyon
Eventually they will come into a clearing. A stream winds its
way around a tree that grows in the center of the clearing.
Around the edges are several small houses and one large
pavilion like building. There are animals dressed like people
hovering at the edges of the clearing. Lots of small critters
like squirrels, racoons, foxes and rabbits. A few bigger ones.
A bear. Bob. And coming out of the Pavillion will be a large
and terrifying looking Moose Man! The Moose will beckon
the players to come over to him.
NPC INTRO: Randy Imamoose
“Hey, nice to meet you. My name is Randy... Imamoose. Why
don't you come on in for a chat?”
QUEST: Find Rabbit 386
Inside the Hut are the three missing merchants. Randy will
explain to the players that Rabbit 386 has gone missing and
right about that time some sort of ultimate evil started
creeping through the forest to the south of here in a place
called the Blighted Canyon. Randy needs them to go stop the
evil and find 386. Rabbits are notorious for two things…
rabbits and getting into trouble. He can’t leave the grove
because of an "Obligation" to a Fey Lord who says he can’t.
He will send them home if they succeed, but can’t to that until
they find 386 who has his Prime Material Tuning Fork.
(Actual Component needed to cast plane shift) The
merchants aren’t willing to go look for the evil, so that leaves
them. He will also suggest that they rest up... cuz well...

from the WISC it can repeat its saving throw.
ACT 06: Race to the Finish
When they arrive back on the Prime they will find out that if
they hurry they can still meet their deadline in Deleran’s
Crossing. This will likely cause them to drive the cart really
really fast. And thus force Skill Checks as described in The
Cart NPC.

APPENDICES
LOCATIONS
Durrand
Unlike most of the cities in the Stolregard Barony, Durrand
This is growing. When the port city to the west was destroyed
decades ago most of the shipping industry moved up river to
here. What was once a sleepy little farming village that
supplied the local brewers and vintners suddenly had a lot
more to offer. There is fair sized dock area and a decent
market.
Branover
This large town is halfway between Durrand and Delerans
Crossing. It has a agricultural backbone, but had grown into a
proper city some time ago. Unfortunately, it never recovered
from certain world calamities and about half of the buildings
remain vacant. Still, it offers a lot of things travelers look for.
Supplies, lodging, and drinks are at the top of the list.
Deleran’s Crossing
Once the Pride of Civilization Deleran’s Crossing has fallen
on harder times. When most routes of travel to and from The
Barony were cut off the lavish lifestyle that was field by trade
and tourism dried up. It is still an interesting city though.
Built upon island plateaus at a fork in the Cold Rock River it
is both defensible and unique. Castle Skystone sits on the
Northeast and tallest rise in the area and overlooks the city.
The Graywood Highway: This is the main thoroughfare
across The Barony and cuts through the middle of the
Graywood. It is heavily traveled and problems are rare.
The Fey Village:
Some time ago a group of displaced Animal Folk founded a
village in the Druid Grove of Randy Imamoose. It isn’t large
and has little to offer than fun Fey interactions and a safe
place to rest.
The Blighted Canyon
This was at one point in time a really wonderful box canyon.
It was covered with wildflowers and attracted a lot of the
gentler Fey. One ambitious Satyr opened an outdoor eatery
here. Unfortunately certain travelers didn’t take well to their
host not wearing pants… one bad yelp review later and the
canyon was cast in a new light. Recently an evil presence has
made its home there.
NPCS
The Ruffians
Ricky, Carl, Dom, Brit, and Jackie. I use bandit stats. With a
mix of Archers and Melee. Maybe use a few thugs if you got a
beefy party. These folks are very stereotypical. You got a
lunkhead, a weasel, an angry mouthy one, the silent staring
individual, and the lunatic. You pick who is who.
Ferlonious
Elderly Halfling Illusionist and also completely cracked with
a big personality. His behavior is odd and erratic, and he
often breaks the fourth wall and has a whole lot of metagame
information. He will refer to the Mmonster Manual and DMG
and such. As kooky as he is, he is honest and really good at
finding and delivering things to people. Particularly long lost
things.Recently lost things… not so much.
Barney Cartman
Barney is a fairly typical human commoner. He is a former
Crossbowman from the army so he has a little more beef
than your average commoner. He is also skilled with his
Heavy Crossbow “Sugar”. For playing purposes, Barney will
not get off the cart unless absolutely necessary. He will
however provide crossbow support when fights break out. He
may even shoot first and ask questions later if he feels
threatened.
Shiela The Wagon
Barney’s favorite Wagon. Don’t call her a cart. It is targetable
and will likely be attacked by the Displacer Beasts. So she
has stats.
Bob The Camel
Bob is a Camel Folk. He is a little one dimensional in the fact
that he is constantly afraid. But kind of in the Cowardly Lion
sense. He will make brave choices if he needs to but those
are usually in response to him not having any other options. I
often picture him in a Fez and a jean jacket. Kind of in the
vein of Joe Camel.
Randy Imamoose
Randy is one of my favorite character. I’ve used him as an
NPC for years and played him in a Tomb of Anniliation
campaign after my Bard died. I accent and personality cast
Randy like Rick Moranis from Ghostbusters. You know Vinz
Clortho, Keymaster of Gozer? If you don’t I’m now sad… go
watch Ghostbusters! Randy is level 15 Shepherd Druid and
this is his grove. He is super chill and will take the players
inside his hut. He is often really vague, but not because he
wants to be, but because well… chill druids aren’t always real
swift. He is also really hard to get angry. This one time
Acerak was trying to wake this dead baby God and it actually
made Randy get up and walk around.
Rabbit 386
Oh the rabbits. There are a lot of these little fellers runnin
around. 386 is named so because she is, not surprisingly, the
386th rabbit born in this village. She has an adventuring
streak and is actually a second level rogue. Unfortunately she
got caught by the evil in the Blighted Canyon.
Algren The Goblin
Algren is a hyper intelligent Neutral Good Goblin. He has a
long and sad backstory in my world. Born differently, he was
outcast and hunted by his kind. He was later rescued by
Deleran Callington and his adventuring crew. He continued
traveling with them and became something of a legend. He is
now the Arch mage of Deleran’s Crossing, only recently
returning to town after disappearing for a century following
the death of his best friend Pieter Bonniet, the former Arch
mage. He is now 543 years old, and has field the suspicion
that Goblins have the lifespan of elves… only they’re too dumb
to not get themselves killed after like three years. ALgren is
the exception to that rule.
