A follow up on Friday's post. These aren't actual stories from comics, but pastiches of the sort of thing that does show up.
1. A madman seeks a golden disk to bring life to colossal automaton, an ancient weapon of war, that lies half-buried in a remote desert.
2. A city under seige! Legend holds a magic gem will restore to life the mummy of the cities demigod founder. His body lies in a crypt in deep within the city's catacombs.
3. The jungle-choked ruins of an ancient city surround a vast, walled garden, an earthly paradise, inhabited by beautiful, golden-skinned youths. The brutish beast-folk that dwell in the ruins will let no stranger enter the garden, nor any of the garden's inhabitants leave.
4. An arboreal village of elfs is harassed by pale, giant bat riding goblins from a cave high on a nearby mountainside, who raid the village for victims for their cook-pots.
5. A PC has a rare trait that fits a prophecy--a prophecy predicting the downfall of a tyrannical ruler, who means to ensure it does not come to pass.
6. A lake of lurid, swirling mists where time becomes strange. At it's center is an island with a castle where an immortal witch queen dwells with her eternally youthful handmaidens. No one comes to the witch's castle without being summoned.
7. A playing piece from the game of the gods falls to earth, perhaps accidentally or at the whim of a capricious godling. This touches off a race to acquire the piece with the rat-men minions of one sorceror contesting with the shadow demons of a cambion child--and the PCs caught in the middle.

Totally love four color adventure. Its inspiring to me working on my lost land game. Love it, keep it up.
Excellent set of adventure seeds, may have to try using one or two next time I am back playing fantasy,
Thanks guys!
If you use one, I hope we get a write-up.
I could use almost all of these for my ASE game, thanks!
#2 sounds a lot like the first appearance of Ghita of Alizarr that I finally read recently.
That is quite possibly not accidental.
