The magnificent four. (or "the magnificent three to five" depending upon who signs up and how many the GM wants to run for)
Two persons have come to Tent city begging for help for their beleaguered village of Rose Creek. Ork Scorchers of the less than honorable variety, lead by the notorious Calvera, have been demanding onerous tribute every few months ever since their kaer opened two and a half years ago. Last time the Scorchers came they killed a villager.
This season the village, still inexperienced in farming outdoors, anticipates a poor harvest, and are afraid the scorchers will kill more of them, or take it all the food leaving them to starve. They are looking for hero's to lead them in a fight against the scorchers.
They have nothing to pay with, since the Scorchers have long since taken all their valuables. However the villagers say the Scorcher's carry the wealth of several villages with them, including a thread item looted from their village in years past.
Note that this mission need not be just "solve the villages problem for them". An optional component might be to bring the villagers together, build defenses, train a militia, and develop tactics for the militia to follow.
This is a thread item mission,
