Four encounters for each of the districts of Hoardreach are given here. The encounters will work with the Pathfinder and 5E versions of the supplement.
North District
- A passenger skyship is coming into land at Skyport Park. Crew on the ground are preparing to make the ship safe and help passengers disembark.
- A bookseller with a wide selection of books is entering the Archive, looking to sell some to the organisation.
- Numerous lightning bolts stab down out of the sky in series, grounding themselves on the lightning rods that cover the district.
- Young kobolds are making a very realistic-looking dragon out of snow and ice.
The Sunrise District
- Lizardfolk are idly basking in the district’s warmth, chatting to each other and enjoying some light refreshments.
- In Cinder Square, several of the statues and shaped crystals on display are being packaged away, and sealed crates contain new pieces to be put out.
- From Glassreach comes an explosion of fire, which draws barely a glance from the locals.
- An ifrit is shaping a piece of molten glass into a new decorative piece.
Westgate
- There’s a splash as a large amphibious resident dives into the Swamp.
- Three goblins drunk on dragon’s blood are arguing with a large ogre who seems more amused than annoyed.
- A pseudodragon swoops down, followed by two more. They hiss, then fly off again.
- Several residents are getting into an argument over politics in Low Market. It appears to be mostly good-natured.
Old Lane
- Raucous members of a skyship’s crew are making their way into the Skycat Inn, welcomed by friendly calls.
- A tourist in Charcoal Plaza looks extremely ill after eating a dish they were advised was not suitable for their kind.
- Guards are escorting a merchant accompanied by several chests into the Accounting House.
- Someone who looks to be from out of town is carefully reading the signs and flags that aid navigation through the district.
East Town
- Light flashes out from the top of the Bastion at the highest point of the city.
- Above the district, a glider falters and nearly staggers out of the sky until its pilot recovers control.
- An explosion, followed by a gout of flame, causes some people to duck and look for the source whilst others continue on with their business, unaffected by the sound.
- A wyvern swoops down from above, buzzing the pedestrians below, seemingly entertained by this.
