Urban Events

Sometimes the biggest hassles of urban adventuring are not villains or monsters at all, but widespread events that turn the normal operation of the city on its ear. Any or all of these might serve as the basis for an adventure, or simply provide background fl avor and extra challenges in an otherwise unrelated tale. PCs might be caught up in these events, hired to provide security, or asked to aid in evacuation. Alternatively, they might simply want to continue what they were doing and protect their own interests, letting the situation sort itself out.
