Places You Should Add To Your Little Town/city In Your Fantasy World!!

Places you should add to your little town/city in your fantasy world!!

Post offices. Wild, I know. But give me the unhinged kind. Pingeons and little postal dragons all over the place. You enter. The most disgusting smell fucking assaults your nostrils. You know what it is. Letter in hand, you go up to the counter. The postal worker is just a slightly bigger pigeon. You shed a tear.

PLAYGROUNDS!! Create the most dangerous kinds of playgrounds, the ones suburban moms would TRIP if they ever saw one. Monkey bars that are way too tall, swings that go full circle... The metal slide stays the same, it's already painful enough.

PARKS!! MAKE IT ALIVE!! Show people going on walks, reading beneath trees. C'mon most of them are already hundred years old (And are going to die after that CR 15 creature wrecks the town) anyways!! Show couples and picnics, show a family enjoying the sunday, give me someone picking flowers for their loved ones.

A bakery! Do you know how much these places are underrated? And do you know how much plot potential they have? Every good story starts with food poisoning or granny's recipe! Give me a place your players/readers are going to treat like home and, for once, it's not a tavern or a guild.

Government buildings! Give me a town hall that has a kilometric line in front of it. Give me a registry that is as old as this town. Give me police stations! Give me courtrooms! Make one of your players get arrested and now all of the party has to go through burocracy like a bunch of normal people!

(Who am I kidding? You don't need to make them get arrested. They are going to do that for you.)

Touristic attractions! Give me a full-on statue of the country's leader! Give me museums! Give me streets, ruins and whatnot that attract thousands of tourists everyday! Give me an annoying city guide that tries to get the party's attention everytime!

Magazine stands! Magazines don't exist? Newspaper stands! From the Queen's Journal to the most questionable new piece of Fox's Tailtracker, you have it all! Make your players doubt what's actually happening, sprinkle a little fake news... Or is it fake at all?

...Toy stores. OK HEAR ME OUT. Make magic toys; miniature skyships that actually fly, metal toy dragons that expel fire, little wands that make little light spells, wooden creatures that can move and make noises... Make children happy! And your players too because they will waste their money on these stuff.

Instrument store!! Make your bards happy with special instruments or just weird ones! Give me a battle in one of those that is just filled with funny noises and the worst battle soundtrack ever!!

Not exactly a place but... Cleaning carts!!! Show me people cleaning the streets, picking up the trash, cutting trees!! Make the town look clean!! Give me an old man that is really proud of his work!!!

(or ways to make your players feel even worse when the villain destroys the town later on :) )

Orc Tavern

This Orc Tavern may look intimidating from the outside, but it is merely a tourist trap run by two entrepreneurial half-orcs.

This tavern simulates everything that happens in a real Orc mess hall, but makes sure that no one is cooked, stabbed, or eaten.

🛡 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Verdant Breastplate
Armor (breastplate), rare (requires attunement) ___

When found, this breastplate resembles a leather cuirass covered in large, dried leaves. Once you wear and attune to it, however, it springs to life and flourishes; its leaves remain pliable and flexible, but harden against incoming harm to protect you. Sleeping in this armor has no adverse effect on you.

While wearing this armor, moving through nonmagical plants that impede movement (such as by creating difficult terrain) costs you no extra movement, and you don’t take damage from nonmagical plant hazards such as thorns or spines. In addition, the “entangle” spell has no effect on you, and you have advantage on any Dexterity (Stealth) check you make to hide in areas of dense foliage.

𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙨. This armor has 7 charges and regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn. If you’re a druid or ranger and have cast the “plant growth” spell from the armor within the last 24 hours, the armor regains all expended charges instead.

𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙨. While wearing this armor, you can use an action to expend some of its charges to cast either the “entangle” (1 charges) or “plant growth” (3 charges) spell from it, using a spell save DC of 15. If you’re a druid or ranger, you can choose to cast the spell from the armor using your spell save DC instead.

When you cast “plant growth” using this armor, the plants affected by the spell are enriched for 30 days. The plants yield twice the normal amount of food when harvested. ___

⚔️ 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Battlechef’s Heated Skillet
Weapon (mace), rare ___

This iron skillet is magically light and wieldy in your grasp, allowing you to swing it as a weapon. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. If you’re proficient with cook’s utensils, you’re proficient with the “battlechef’s heated skillet.”

The skillet has 3 charges and regains all expended charges whenever you spend at least 1 hour cooking with it, which can be done over the course of a short rest. The first creature to eat a meal that was cooked in the skillet gains 5 temporary hit points.

When you make an attack with the weapon, you can speak one of its three command words to expend 1 or more of its charges: “hot” (1 charge), “hotter” (2 charges), or “hottest” (3 charges). If the attack hits, the target takes an extra 1d6 fire damage for each expended charge. ___
