Sights: A seemingly average looking berry bush that happens to grow small jewels instead of berries. If one where to try and consume one of the jewels picked off of the bush within 24hrs, that person gains a temporary magical effect or bonus, otherwise it’s a normal jewel.
4
Sights: It’s an oak tree with the word hope carved into it in large letters. No one knows who did it or why, but it’s turned into a useful landmark for the local village.
5
Sights: There’s a half-buried village in the sand, with sandstone walls being the only remnants… except for one house, which has a simple roof and door carved into the stone.
6
Sights: A clear pool of water with 4 sleeping animals lying around its edge
7
8
Sights: After a day's travel, the characters come to a small camp site. A voice calls out from somewhere, asking about the PCs and their business. If the characters respond honestly, a hunter with a bow reveals himself and greets the PCs. He often goes out into the wilderness in search of game, and has just recently completed a successful hunt. If the PCs are friendly he offers to share some of his kill with them, and if they join him for dinner they gain 2d4+2 temporary hit points. If the PCs are wary or rude, he returns to his campfire and leaves them be.
9
Sights: A large gray solid stone table with ancient carvings on the sides. Upon its surface are newly lit candles and a banquet of food that seems to be warm, fresh, and untouched by its surroundings. If one where to eat or take anything from the table, the next day it would be completely restocked and replenished.
10
11
Sights: A bizarre building with a strange mushroom-shaped metal lattice on top. It was the lab of a researcher studying non-magical electricity who died from electrocution.
12
Sights: A minor noble travelling via horse, with servants. He is off to ask for a woman’s hand in marriage. But he is still in need of a notable gift to offer to her family. He will attempt to buy anything that the party has visible that might fit such a need.
13
Sights: A cave with a chest that says, ‘if you take something, leave something.’ It’s unlocked and has several trinkets inside.
14
Sights: A large, symmetrical hill where the site of a great battle once was. Stone rubble and ruins barely peaks out from the top. Flowers are left there every so often.
15
Sights: A fifteen-foot statue of a girl unmarred by time. Next to her are the shattered remains of another statue, close enough that the body may have once held her outstretched hand. The feet of this larger statue are all that remain affixed to the earth – the rest is scattered throughout the clearing. Water, clean and pure, travels down her face in steady rivulets but leaves no erosion there.
16
Sights: A massive artwork carved into a boulder placed some ways away from the banks of a nearby river. The artwork seems to depict a struggle between giants and dragons, with the giants as the victors. The faintly red runes which line it are giantish, and anyone who can decipher them will read that it marks a momentous battle between giants and dragons, over which should decide the course of the river.
17
Sights: A garden from a former ancient culture, which vanished out of unknown reasons. One of the only things found was this tree garden. Are the trees made of stone or turned to, no one knows.
18
Sights: A person looks to be threatened by a skeleton, but on closer inspection the skeleton is assisting them.
19
Sights: A worn smooth but still recognizable ancient statue of a goddess of death. At her feet sets a black stone bowl filled with fresh rose petals. If you were to kneel down at the bowl and look up at her, you would see her eyes stare unwaveringly into yours.
20
Sights: An enormous high relief of six dwarven warriors cut from a cliff pointing the way along, commemorating their epic journey.
21
Sights: A cave with a chest that says, ‘if you take something, leave something.’ It’s unlocked and has several trinkets inside.
22
23
24
Sights: A lost, weeping child. If the characters take the child home, the parents reward them with 2 potions of healing.
25
26
27
Sights: A limping bailiff and his badly beaten prisoner are walking down the road. The man is being returned to jail for theft and assaulting a member of justice. The prisoner claims that he was only stealing bread to avoid starvation and was defending himself from an overzealous bailiff. The prisoner swears on his honor that if the party pays his fine of 25 gold pieces that he will stay with the group to work off the debt by being the party’s servant. He originally offers his services for one gold per day but is willing to haggle. If the fine is paid the prisoner stays with the party for only half of any agreed time before attempting to run away in the night.
28
Sights: A natural rock formation that just happens to look like the face of an old man with a long beard. Ruins of temples from several ancient civilizations can be found in the valley below, apparently attracted there to worship the face, or perhaps just to be under his watchful gaze. Most humanoid races in the region are sure the old man looks like their race and have their own legend about him.

31
32
Sights: A series of jutting tooth like spires of black igneous rock which rise out from the sea. These “teeth” have proven to be an extreme hazard to sailors and shipping which pass too near to them. Tearing hulls and ripping sails.
33
Sights: There’s a strange dune of sand in the middle of this grassy field, covered in scorpions.
34
Sights: A minor noble with servants seeks a wedding gift. Spots something valuable on PCs and wants to buy it.
35
Sights: On the side of a rocky cliff are a well carved trio of protruding faces all looking the same direction.
36
37
Sights: A fairly tall and elaborate tree made entirely out of glass raises from the earth, at its base there is a plaque written in dwarven, it’s to commemorate a dwarf leader who fell in battle.
38
Sights: A large swath of woods where all the trees in a massive circle have been bent at a 90-degree angle towards the center but continue to grow that way. There is nothing (currently) anomalous at the center, but a powerful coven of druids hold it as one of their holiest places and guards it closely.
39
Sights: A large, symmetrical hill where the site of a great battle once was. Stone rubble and ruins barely peaks out from the top. Flowers are left there every so often.
40
Sights: A secluded hot spring, with the initials of many young lovers carved into nearby rocks. Discarded and forgotten undergarments can be found on tree branches in the area.
41
Sights: The legs of a giant metal statue standing beside the top of a waterfall overlooking the valley below. At the bottom of the lake below the falls, the head and torso can be found. It appears to be the likeness of a famous ancient hero that a PC might recognize.
42
43
Sights: A seemingly average looking berry bush that happens to grow small jewels instead of berries. If one where to try and consume one of the jewels picked off of the bush within 24hrs, that person gains a temporary magical effect or bonus, otherwise it’s a normal jewel.
44
Sights: A large swath of woods where all the trees in a massive circle have been bent at a 90-degree angle towards the center but continue to grow that way. There is nothing (currently) anomalous at the center, but a powerful coven of druids hold it as one of their holiest places and guards it closely.
45
46
Sights: One of the carts in a traveling circus has broken down with one of its wheels having snapped, the jester trying to help is not very helpful.
47
Sights: A ranger (scout) searching for a missing companion, lover, or long-lost ancestor.
48
Sights: A large stone head protruding from the surface of a glacier. It is the head of an earth elemental and if you get his attention, he is friendly. If asked what he is doing their he replies ”swimming in the river”, given he exists at a geological place the slow flow of the glacier is like a river to him.
49
50
51
Sights: A talking dog has decided to follow the party and wants to make them happy.
52
Sights: A small waterfall that appears to reverse direction on every night with a bright full moon, running up instead of down.
53
Sights: There is a patch of trees here with a non-stop turbulent wind rustling the leaves and branches violently. The leaves’ edges appear to be razor sharp.
54
Sights: A stone well with glyphs, the water gives the effect of Protection from Good.
55
Sights: A well by the side of the road that is a base in a local hafling tradition that if one where to lose a tooth, that it is to be tossed in the well with a tip of the hat. When doing so, good fortune is sure to come. Characters that throw in teeth later find small amounts of wet coins in various locations on their person. Characters that throw rubbish, or are otherwise disrespectful of the well, find their respective objects on their person once more soaking wet and covered in bite marks.
56
Sights: 4 web cocoons hanging from the branches, holding withered carcasses
57
Sights: A man selling golden iguanas approaches the party for the bargain of a lifetime. He only has one left, it's painted gold, and a little bit high off paint fumes.
58
Sights: A series of vaguely conic stone spires lined up along a gentle arc. Each is over 15ft tall and 5ft across at the base, and tapers to a narrow tip. Nobody knows the origin of this formation. Some say the teeth are all that remains from some colossal dragon skeleton, others think the stones were placed there by a dragon cult, or as a sign from Bahamut.
59
Sights: One of the carts in a traveling circus has broken down with one of its wheels having snapped, the jester trying to help is not very helpful.
60
61
Sights: An incredibly detailed, broken bust of a young wood elf, bearing a red crown. Its nose and left ear are missing and where its left eye should be, the socket is destroyed, and a monstrously decomposed snake eye can be found. The base has a bronze plaque which reads (in broken Celestial): ‘The only one truly meant to rule’, followed by a name which seems scratched out.
62
Sights: Royal customs agents have set up a checkpoint to search travellers for fruit from a neighbouring kingdom, following reports that some shipments have been infested with the eggs of dangerous species of exotic spider.
63
64
Sights: 6 merchants with their donkey (they're bandits that may attack weak-looking PCs).
65

67
68
Sights: A limping bailiff and his badly beaten prisoner are walking down the road. The man is being returned to jail for theft and assaulting a member of justice. The prisoner claims that he was only stealing bread to avoid starvation and was defending himself from an overzealous bailiff. The prisoner swears on his honor that if the party pays his fine of 25 gold pieces that he will stay with the group to work off the debt by being the party’s servant.

70
Sights: Intact obelisk etched with a warning, historical lore, dedication, or religious iconography.
71
72
Sights: A ranger patrol, with a cheerful leader, is heard laughing from down the path. The man, tall and burly loves jokes and will reward any player that can make him laugh until he cries. However he hates puns as he thinks they are a cheap form of laughter.
73
74
Sights: A seemingly normal well on the top of a hill. Anything that is placed into it is immediately tossed out of it.
