I'm trying to make a comprehensive list of 'adventure idea' tables in official sourcebooks, and could do with some help to look over it and see if there's anything I've missed, lacking as I do a fair number of books, including many setting-specific ones.

DMG p44 - "One Hundred Adventure Ideas"
DMGII p88 - "50 Rumours and Hooks"
DMGII p99 - "100 Instant NPC Agendas"
CM p138 - "One Hundred Adventure Ideas"
CS p156 - "One Hundred Scoundrel Challenges"
Cscp p144 - "Ten Historical Adventures"
DotU p185 - "50 Adventure Ideas"
SoXd p116 - "100 Adventure Ideas"
RoS p191 - "One Hundred Adventure Ideas"
RotW p191 - "One Hundred Adventure Ideas"
RotD p137 - "Adventure Ideas"
BoEF p173 - "Adventure Ideas"
Stwk p32 - "20 Marine Adventure Ideas"

That's what I managed to find, do you know of any others?

I think there are some in RoD and RotD. Beyond that, I don't know.

damn, I was about to say that!

... the one where it suggests a sorcerer switched the gender of an entire town really got me. I have no idea why.

And most of them can be well used even without trying to include the book ideas in the game. Like the one where no one on miles radii became sterile.

I've flicked through the other Races books, didn't get an opportunity to read them cover-to-cover, but I'm fairly sure they don't have them. Thanks for the tip on BoEF; it's a book I do particularly like for its mature approach to the subject, I'm surprised I forgot to flick through it.

well if no other races book does, I'm absolutely certain that Races of the Dragon has one. Yeah, I just checked and it's on page 137

...now I am tempted. I'm a fan of the art of genderbending, so this being brought up is like... ugghhhh.

Reverse gender is 3rd level spell with a duration of 1 hour per CL. I happen to be a fan of it to.

Gender, or sex? Either one has hilarious(ly awful), but difference consequences. Switching both at once would be... odd.

male to female, female to male. When I tried to tell the players in the one game I tried to do this I burst out laughing until I just said "Screw it, the town's normal."

Stormwrack has 20 Marine Adventure Ideas on page 32.

Awesome! That's quite a list now.
