Characters are kids at a summer camp, need ideas for fun/lighthearted sidequest.
I am planning a horror one shot where PC are kids are a summer camp.
Before starting the main-plot, I'd like to let some time for the PC to enter their character and be kids. To build horror it's way better to have character building a tree house, dancing and playing football, then add a couple of odds elements and finally throw ghosts/blood and violence. Than just Throw the blood and violence.
However, I am not still looking for ideas for that "intro quest". So I thought lemmy's hivemind could help
Treasure hunt. One night they are all in the attic and stumbles across an old map. They set off and later realize that they have to go through a creepy building to get to a secret passage to the caves. As they try to get into the caves one of them gets lost and he is left behind. He then meets another boy with a messed up face. He befriends the boy. Will the kids ever find the treasure? Will they ever meet the pirate one eye Willy. Will Chuck ever meet up with them again? Will they all accept Sloth for his needed up face?
