Here’s one for you Dm’s that want world building via the post office. The players are out late at night when they see a portal open 7 a post person walk-out. They then see the post person go there regular route. If the players ask the post person what that was, they will be informed that it’s the new way post-people get about to deliver mail. If the players decided to got to the post office after experiencing this, they can pay a large sum of gold to be able to portal themselves to a different part of the region.

Here’s one for you Dm’s that want a side quest for a start-up capitalist NPC The players are doing stuff around town when they come across a half-orc (can be any rase) yelling stuff about weapons & buying. If the players investigate they find out that this half-orc is trying to start a weapon modification serve, but they don’t have the money to do it, so they are trying to fund raise the money. The half-orc will ask the players if they could help them raise money in exchange for a permit on\ the weapon modification service (the more money the players raise, the more they will get for a discount). If the players do this & are able to raise X amount (decided by dm), the weapon modification shop will be available in a few days & the players will get a permeant discount.

Here’s one for you Dm’s that want the players to deal with the ‘ever so efficient’ gear of political bureaucracy. The players receive a form in the mail stating “That the government of (inherent government name) has issued a new grant for adventuring. You have been selected due to (If they are famous adventure/we'll know by the government list that as the reason, if not, then they got picked via random poll) & are now qualified to test the new grant.”. If the players accept this then they will have to go to there local courthouse to get a form. Now here comes the ‘fun’ part. The players now have to navigate their way through government bureaucracy in the ability to get this grant. (DM can choose how deep this gets). After they get through it they will reviced X amount of gold (If you want to ‘take the piss’ out of them have the amount be a pitifully small amount).

Here’s some NPC soldiers & a general for you DM’s that need them. 1: A foot soldier who’s only wish is to go back home to their partner 2: A General who is extremely shy of new people. 3: A Siege technician who loves to make new brutal siege weapons. 4: A cavalryman who honestly has no clue how to ride a horse. 5: An  archer who isn’t afraid to get face to face with the enemies

Here’s one for you dm’s that want a good old fashion battle of the bards. (recommend that you have at least one bard before doing this) The players enter the hub area (inn/bar/restaurant/etc) & are met with a skeleton bard rocking the socks off everyone in the hub. The patrons start throwing their money at the bard. After awhile the bard ends his song & stats “Anyone willing to face me in the battle of words will get all this money (pans his hands over the money thrown at him) if you beat me. But if they fail I will gain their soul. If any of the players accept they will have to battle the bard (how this is done is decided by the DM)
