There are countless sources full of tables, information and colorful references for our games out there. An encounter idea can come from a simple reference to an item, property or game mechanic discovered anywhere.
In this case, I stumbled upon the Sample Poisons listing while looking up Short Term Madness. What I saw was Truth Serum. Imagine the characters in your adventuring party sitting down around a table in an inn, tavern or restaurant and unknowingly imbibing food laced with Truth Serum, an ingested poison.
Do characters have conflicting ideals or flaws? Do they have secrets? Do they have secret desires? If you thought your last holiday dinner was embarrassing, you ain’t seen nothing yet, because this could get messy.
