SOMETHING MORE THAN

JUST A REWARD OF COINS…

While gold and silver is nice there are other

rewards of more useful value. Land, for exam-

ple, is quite a tempting reward for the party of

adventurers who are finding their selves in

need of a fortification if not just a place to

park their excess gear. This first installment of

Land Plots focuses on a nice tract of land lo-

cated in a small, rural area simply known as

Oak Meadows.

Covering a total of 90 acres, the land plot of-

fers the adventuring party a combination of

farm ready meadows, rolling hills, and timber

rich woodlands. There is also a limestone cave

and a creek of pure, clear water that the char-

acters might find to be useful. Whether avail-

able for purchase or intended to be used as a

means of rewarding the characters for saving

the day (and perhaps the village) the land plot

is worth 5600 gold coins.

A BIT ABOUT OAK MEADOWS:

Oak Meadows is a small, rural area that can

easily be fit into the surrounding outskirts of

most fantasy villages, towns, and cities. The

locale is not so much as a full fledged commu-

nity of its own as it is a small farming settle-

ment that supports the larger local community.

Likewise, if desired the area can be renamed

to whatever you find more fitting.

GOLD COIN SYSTEM:

As noted, values in this product are described

in gold coins. A gold coin is a staple figure of

currency in most forms of popular role play-

ing games and in many of these the exact

value of the gold coin tends to remain about

the same. For better clarity on the exact value,

however, treat the gold coin as being worth

about the same as a being around a day’s

wages of a skilled professional.

Greetings Gentle Land Owner,

Congratulations on your acquisition of 90 acres of

property in the Oak Meadows area. The following

bits of information will help further detail you on

the important highlights of your land property.

property consists of dense woodland. These areas

are semi-flat and offer an abundance of timber. The

wooded areas provide a significant amount of pro-

tection and habitat for local wildlife and as such it is

not uncommon to find a manner of deer and elk bed-

ding down in these areas from time to time. The

wooded areas is also home to black bear, cougar,

and small game, with rabbit, raccoon, squirrels, and

chipmunks being quite common. One will also find

a significant amount of birds nesting in these areas,

with ravens, crows, hawks, and woodpeckers hold-

ing dominance over the other local species. The

base of the wooded area is also home to several box

turtles.

Property Overview:

The acquired property is broken down into four ter-

rain types: hills, meadow, wooded areas, and the

cave. Growing along the hills, meadows, and wood-

lands are quite a number of trees, with oak, pine,

sycamore, and beech being the most dominant of

such trees. A recent survey by a hired ranger and

two druids reveal that there is an estimate of 3050

adult oak, 1650 adult pine, 820 adult sycamore, and

275 adult beech trees growing in the 90 acres of ac-

quired property.

Cave: The cave is located in the eastern hilly por-

tion of the property. This underground structure

houses over 3900 square feet of space and is easily

located by its gaping 23ft. high entrance. This tall

entry quickly narrows down to 18ft. along the entry

shaft and one will note that the roof heights of the

remainder of this limestone cave vary greatly, with

heights ranging from 12 feet to 22 feet. A series of

natural step like slopes allow for easy navigation

through the cave, which drops further below into the

underground surface as you travel deeper within the

structure. Located in the most western room of the

underground cave one will find a pool of cool, clear

water. A small underground stream pours into the

pool from a 1 foot diameter hole in the stone ceiling

above and a small 6 inch diameter hole in a tunnel

like cut of the southern pool wall filters the water

back out. The pool of water is roughly 4 feet in

depth.

In the past the cave has been home to a variety of

creatures. While most reptiles and insects shun the

limestone construction of the cave it is well known

that bears, cougars, and even a few scarier varieties

of monsters have been known to call the cave home

at one time or another. If one takes extra care in dig-

ging around the old rooms and passages of the cave

it is likely that one might find a manner of old bro-

ken bones and teeth. Fortunately most of the bones

recovered from the cave thus far have been animal

in origin.

Each of the four property types are described below.

Hills: Of the 90 total acres of acquired property a

total of 9 of these acres are hilly and somewhat

overgrown. Though being a mixture of rolling

meadow and timber bearing woodland the hills are

considered to be of good quality land. Such hilly

areas have fertile soil and some magnificent hard-

wood timbers. It is not at all uncommon to spot sev-

eral wild turkey making their way along the hills

and deer come down through these hills to feed dur-

ing the evening. There are quite a few ideal spots for

the erection of a tower or small fortification. A

small cave is located within the hilly areas of the

property.

Meadows: The meadow areas make up the largest

portion of the acquired property, claiming a total of

66 acres. The soil of these meadows is quite rich

and it is known that crops grown in this area are

healthy and bountiful. The wild grasses and flowers

in the meadow areas also support the local wildlife,

which consists of a fair amount of deer and more

than a few elk. Smaller game can also be acquired in

this area, particularly in the nature of rabbit and

woodchuck. A small creek of refreshing, clear water

works its way along a fair portion of the meadows.

As with the hilly areas of the property the meadows

offer plenty of places to build. The main road that

passes along to the south of the acquired property

cuts along the edges of several acres of the meadow,

along plenty of space for the owner to develop path-

ways and small wagon roads.

Woodland: Around 15 acres of the 90 acres of

Surrounding Area:

Surrounding your 90 acres of land is the remainder

of the area known as Oak Meadows. Such surround-

ings are broken down into five areas of interest,

which are: the cavern, surrounding hills, surround-

ing meadows, surrounding woodland, and the road.

These areas are further discussed below.

and elk are extremely common in this area, as are

also black bear, cougar, and turkey. There are a few

wild boars spotted from time to time and several of

the local farming residents of the Oak Meadows

area have complained of wild goats getting into their

crops. It is believed that these goats are the feral off-

spring of formally domesticated animals that once

got loose.

Though the woodland area offers quite a bit of bene-

fit for the local residents these forested acres have

also been known to house a few terrible monsters

from time to time. Some believe that the inner heart

of the northern woods is cursed and as such the

more superstitious of rural folk refuse to venture

very far into the forest.

Cavern: To the northwest of your property edge

there rests another underground cave. Though the

other residents of Oak Meadows acknowledge the

presence of this cave there have been no known in-

cidences of exploration in quite some time. For the

most the common folk avoid the cavern entirely.

The hills that the cavern rests in are heavily over-

grown and unused.

Road: This well traveled road is wide enough to

allow two full sized wagons easy passage. The road

allows the citizens of the rural Oak Meadows area

easy access to the local hamlets, villages, towns, and

cities. Though travel along this road is for the most

part peaceful there have been a few reports of ban-

dits and scoundrels from time to time. As one will

take notice, the road forks to the east of the owned

property. While the southern turn tends to remain

peaceful and uneventful travel along the northern

fork tends to witness most of the bandit attacks. As

such, the presence of a good aligned landowner

who’s handy with a weapon would bring a welcome

sigh of relief to the local residents who must travel

this route.

Hills: As stated above, much of the surrounding

hilly areas are overgrown and unused. These hills

are a mixture of potentially fertile meadowland

combined with the presence of oak, pine, and syca-

more trees. Beech trees are fairly also common, and

there are a few abundant walnut trees near the acre-

age of the cavern. While cultivation of these walnuts

is quite tempting to the local residents most folk

avoid such trees due to the presence of the cavern.

Meadows: While the meadows to the north and

northwest of the owned property are overgrown and

unused the meadowlands to the east and south are

actively cultivated and farmed. The local residents

on these farms make a living growing a wide man-

ner of crops, from grains to gourds to grapes. Wine-

making is common in this area, as is a bit of brew-

ing.

Estimated Value:

The property in all has an estimated value of 5600

gold coins. This value reflects the fields, the unde-

veloped wilderness with resources, and the cave lo-

cated on the property.

Woodlands: The wooded areas that surround the

owned property are rich with a manner of wildlife,

herbs, edible mushrooms, and beneficial trees. Deer
