Cuttleton

Waytravel to Cuttleton

A
coastal settlement on a cliff overlooking the ocean with light woodlands on the outskirts. It's an interesting town with some colorful and hostile people and... things scheming about. It's not personal, it's just... some kind of business. Home to the Pitt Brothers pies, the Iron Coin's up-and-coming competitor, The Platinum Star Insurance, Soupowl McGoogan for all your nice medicines, Greasy Johan's legitimately sourced products, The Vespertine Decimation nun's warrior guild are just some of the interesting places you might see when visiting. Oh, and beware the The Torn Ligaments orc encampment somewhere outside of the town!

Establishments of Cuttleton

There are many businesses that have managed to eke out an existence in town, despite the constant threat of incursion from the nearby orcs.

The Pitt Brothers

They make filled pies, pasties, sausages and puddings. They pay good prices for meat and they don't ask too many questions about where you got it. They are harsh but fair. Once you shake on a deal, one way or another you're filling their pies.

Platinum Star Insurance

An up and comer alternative to the Iron Coin still in their humble beginnings, operating out of a caravan usually parked around town. They often pay adventurers to escort their revival technicians (a man with a wheelbarrow) to conflict sites to retrieve bodies. Anyone they can't revive with a little herbal tea gets thrown into a ravine.

Soupbowl McGoogan

A wizened tortle who runs a series of homeopathic medicine shops. His potions are some of the weakest, most potent dilutions on the market! Also has a line in crystal healing. May or may not be sitting on the calcified corpse of a celestial from which those healing crystals are chipped off. Nothing proven so far!

Greasy Johan

A procurer and retailer of legitimately sourced products at reasonable prices. Definitely not a front for a thieves guild.

The Vespertine Decimation

A sect of warrior nuns who run a convalescent home on a bluff overlooking the town. While they mostly live in peaceful harmony, they are more than willing to spin up their nunchucks if they feel threatened.

Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo

CR/Monster	Reward Type	Soloable?	Slayer(s)	Date Slain
CR 10: Young Red Dragon	Treasure Hoard	Yes	N/A

WANTED: Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo
Grugnork's Timber Farm, Saw Mill, and Lumber Yard provided one of the most stable sources of trade goods for Cuttleton. "Provided" being the operative word. Ever since the fire drake, Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo, decided to make its lair on the mountaintop, Grugnork's foresters have all adamantly refused to travel into the woods. Now Grugnork pleads with any strongarm that travels through Cuttleton and deliver his farm from the monster, offering a lord's ransom for any who can bring the dragon down, without burning the forest with it.

Prerequisites

• Spend 24 hours in town. For every 24 hours, roll 1d100 6 times; On a Result of 25 or less, consult !table urban to see if you encounter anything unexpected.
• Roleplay being approached by Grugnork
• Complete a difficult tracking skill challenge to find the Dragon's Lair in the tree farm

Encounter Notes

Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo uses his breath weapon as often as possible, provoking attacks of opportunity if necessary to secure the optimal angle. If his breath weapon strikes any portion of the map with a live tree on it, the tree ignites. For the remainder of the battle, the space becomes difficult terrain and any creature which enters the space or starts its turn in the space takes 1d10 fire damage. A creature can suffer this damage multiple times in a turn if they move through multiple spaces which are on fire.


During combat, if Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo hits a medium or smaller creature with both claw attacks during the same turn, the creature is also grappled (Escape DC 16). While Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo has a creature grappled by this ability, he can fly with the creature at half his flight speed, and cannot make claw attacks. Bujo Fiul Lui Bujo can end the grapple as a free action.
