The Player Characters will attend a halfling Spring Goose Festival. Thought this will be a wholesome festival arc? Think again. It’s a goose murder mystery wrapped in an existential meltdown – served with a side of competitive pie flinging and suspiciously sentient livestock.

Locations

Gooseford Village: a halfling farming town nestled between hills and goose-patrolled fields. Known for its peaceful charm, excellent pies, and the annual Goose Spring Festival.
Sacred Goose Stables: where the top-tier racing geese are housed like royalty. Now also the site of a murder.
The Mushroom Tangle: a chaotic glade in the woods where local spriggans live, prank, and nap in moss hammocks.
Philippa’s Hut: a crooked-roofed rental at the Gooseford Hostel.

Characters

Philippa Fetch: a determined wizardess trying to summon the legendary Goosedra to cleanse the land.
Snug Hog, the Hedgehog Oracle: anxious, and deeply prophetic. Desperately trying to do the right thing without getting jailed again.
Eli Swoonsong: a dramatic halfling bard and part-time game host. Always mid-performance.
Alvin Appleberry: a barter-only food vendor with strong opinions, a sweet heart, and a mild grudge against Eli.
Mayor Roric Gosling: Gooseford’s cider-loving mayor, emotionally fragile and overwhelmed by goose politics.
Spriggans: silent, intense, and vaguely mystical. Speak through cookies and drawings. Surprisingly insightful.

Factions

Gooseford Villagers: primarily halflings who love festivals, fear curses, and take goose racing very seriously.
