Trader Caravan (Travel/Event)
Here's one for you DM's that want both a trade event & a travel opportunity. The players are needing to get to a far off land locked place. As they travel there they come across a merchant caravan that has a lot of stops, one of them being the place that they have to get to. The merchants offer to take them onto a closer stop for X amount of gold. If the players agree they will travel along in one of the caravan wagons till the next stop. Once they get there, the merchants will set up shop for a week & then move onto there next location.[This allows for the players to encounter them again in another city & or if they plan to keep bunking with the merchants, then they have time to side quest & adventure].
