I threw this adventure together when a friend couldn't DM, and the players liked it. I figured I'd put it online here, in case anyone was looking for ideas. Please excuse me if this isn't the right board for this.
Intro
A slew of houses bear evidence of a destructive raid. The broken wood of doors is strewn on the ground, window frames are broken in, and one of the buildings is burnt. The area is deserted. In the quiet, you can hear a child sobbing, and it turns out to be a boy hiding in a barrel. He tells you that a day ago, his village was attacked by a gang led by an evil religious man whose hideout lies deep in a cave in the mountains. The gang attacked the village and stole both valuables and people, both the living and the dead. The boy doesn't know what the priest wants, but he begs you to rescue his family and friends. It's up to you to find the cave and perform a rescue mission.
A heavily-travelled path through the forest makes it easy to follow the bandits' tracks. (Track DC 7)
You come to a (underground cave/hole in a cliff face), dark within.
