Even more D&D brainstorming in 15 minutes

I have another session coming up on Friday! I don't think my party reads my blog. If you do--STOP IT! I'm going to copy and paste a lot of my last post so I can build on it.
  • Town of Talamh
    • Should ask around about the sleeping spell
    • Similar to Baile, but smaller
      • Similar layout, but much smaller travelling merchant section, only one tavern
    • Town was warned about the spell, but don't know what it was for
      • Rumors are that the queen was conducting something evil (group of four)
      • Rumors are that it wasn't from the queen at all, but from her brother so he could try and make the queen seem bizarre (group of five)
      • Rumors say that one person was awake but he's not talking (barkeep, local crew, and couple)
      • Have to talk to several patrons to find out where he is
    • Only one person in town was a bastard, but they didn't want to go
      • Abarat Dordan, full elf (see family tree)
      • Convinced that he would be killed
      • Paranoid
      • Thinks the plague that wiped out a lot of the royal family was poisonings (they were, but this is not known)
      • Hesitant to talk to the adventurers
      • Could be convinced to join them with high enough persuasion roll
      • Can be found hiding in the small out of town merchant section trying to smuggle himself out of town
    • At the local tavern
      • Can enter into a drinking contest with a local crew (Elred, Gorwin, and Shalia) for 100 gp
      • A very charismatic man (Folen Dorvaris) approaches the party and begins buying drinks for them and woo them with compliments and conversation. After the party is sufficiently intoxicated, the man begins to try to sell them normal things, described as great things, at very high prices.
      • The tavern has a dance contest
      • While the party is eating, the Queen's guards arrive and shake down the owner claiming he is evading the Queen's taxes.
      • The owner of the tavern (Ayda Genlana) is an accomplished homebrewer. She tells you about her various brews and, if the party is in town for long enough, will teach them how to brew.
      • A child (Myrin Elgolor) runs into the inn and proudly holds up an imp the child claims to have befriended.
      • In the tavern is the local crew mentioned above, the owner, the charismatic man, a group of five (having a grand time and eager to share), a group of four (more laid back, a little suspicious of the newcomers), and a couple on a date (most eager to be left alone)
    • Job board (have them pick then go deeper) to be found at the end of day one
      • The inn is being haunted. Items are flying off shelves and moving by themselves. The party investigates... at the root. A malicious spellcaster telekinesis using a Crystal Ball 
      • A local musician plays a song every night to keep an angry beast at bay. The musician goes missing. If the townsfolk cannot find a replacement to play the soothing toon by nightfall, the entire town will be in danger.
      • The players must infiltrate an illegal dice casino run by a Goblin Mob. They will need to find a set of "magical dice" to defeat the goblin kingpin at its own gam

Starting my parental journey, part 9

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
