A single mast thrusts skyward like a proud lance, assailing the grey heavens as the good ship Widow ploughs through the waves. The storm-blasted sail billows in the wind, dragging the ship across the seething sea which readily cleaves before its grim figurehead. Standing at the helm is sullen-faced Saamo Hilhaarja, captain of Widow and master of the sea. Despite their advanced age and a reputation far from untarnished, there are no mariners more accomplished than Saamo and his crew. No matter the weather or the dangers of the journey, Widow always sails.

What’s an Eventure?

An eventure is akin to a normal adventure, but does not (normally) feature violence or physical challenges. Instead, an eventure focuses on the use of social skills and role-play to resolve the challenges, or events, therein. Most eventures take places in a settlement or on the road. Few occur in traditional adventure locales such as dungeons, ruined castles and so on. Eventures are an excellent change of pace and can be used as filler between adventures or as situations in which PCs who have invested in social skills can shine. They are also perfect for players who enjoy role-playing.
