Sidequest Decks: Monster Hunts

This deck has nearly 70 sidequests centered on many different traditional fantasy monsters! Each card is a mini-adventure. One side is an outline which starts with some background game master information then a couple ways to begin the quest. Next are several key encounter ideas (use some or all of them or modify them, based on your party’s actions), and finally a follow-up idea or two. The other side of the card is the main map for the adventure. Need more maps for other encounters? Fan through the cards and you’re sure to find something that fits the situation. Like most of our Sidequest Decks, each card is designed to be its own quest. However, this deck includes two cards which list which monsters are on each card. Combine that with a list of which monsters have what traits on the Inkwell Ideas website (search Inkwell Ideas Monsters by Feature), and you can pick a few sidequests for your PCs to collect monster parts needed to craft a magic item or perform an arcane ritual!This is one of many Sidequest Decks for various genres and settings.

• Has your party run off in an unplanned direction? Turned an off-hand remark about a random event into the central point of the session? Or are you just looking for inspiration as you plan out your campaign? Sidequest Decks will give you a wealth of adventure ideas. Skim the first couple of sentences of a few, pick one that's close to what you need and improvise the quest outline to fit!
• 72 cards, 69 mini-adventure outlines plus a cover card & two monster index cards.
• Use them as one-off sidequests, or make a campaign of collecting monster parts to craft a magic item or cast a special spell!
• One side is the main encounter map; the other is a mini-adventure outline: background GM info, 2 ways to start the adventure, several encounter ideas, and a follow-up adventure idea or two.
• Two index cards match the creatures (and alternates) to each quest. Use that info to tie sidequests together to make a larger plot of collecting magic item components or special spell components.
