Description
A low-level adventure to save Yarrowbone’s meat industry from an unknown badlands predator.
Yarrowbone is known for its delicious cured and smoked meats. Folk travel for hundreds of miles to sample the delights of the villager’s meaty products. There’s a problem though. Something is ravaging the livestock out in the badlands leaving dismembered and disemboweled sheep out rotting in the midday sun.
Yarrowbone’s leader is worried and the farmers and shepherds are having to graze their flocks elsewhere to keep the dwindling meat supply safe.
Unfortunately, as the herd animals have not been reared and fed on the vegetation found in the badlands, the taste of their meat isn’t the same, and as sales decline, the locals are getting restless.
Several groups, including an angry mob of locals, have gone out to try and hunt whatever is devastating their livestock, but they too have generally ended up as carcasses for the vultures.
Only one person has lived to tell the tale and he refuses to go out there again. Most of the bodies of those villagers killed have been recovered. Two are still missing.
The inhabitants of Yarrowbone are getting desperate and need some heroes to find the missing settlers and save their precipitous meat industry from whatever is destroying it.
