Im currently working on a short oneshot game in my homebrew D&D world.
You would be playing children (under "adulthood" age around 10-14 for humans as an example) living in the small town of "Brink".
It is autumn and the harvest festival is just about to start when strange things start happening in Brink.
The magical streetlights turn a deep purple, almost black and children are going missing...

About Brink
Brink is a small farming community on the edge on some large cliffs above the silkwind sea, who grew into a small thriving town.
It is run by a mayor serving under the king of Rtae (a large city to the south).
Places of interest are:
The Tree of Mara: a temple to the godess of Mara, godess of nature, harvest, farming, birth. It is actually carved into a giant oak tree.
Tent-Town: What the locals call the area where people who are too poor to afford a proper home live in tents.
Geon's tower: The local wizard, living in a tall tower. He teaches the local wizard apprentices and also helps the town with magical business as well as tending to animals when needed.
Oriks smithy: the local blacksmith Orik, a master craftsman.
The three swine tavern and inn: the local tavern and inn.
The pale rose: an old former church that is now the towns brothel.

This is an adventure I am making for a group of younger players and Im testing it here first.
