We've never been big on enchanting, but the stuff our racoon adept gets from
his talismonger has a distincly urban flavor.
Have you ever been to some store in the city that carries somthing that
youv'e never seen anywhere else, despite it's cheapness? I had this
expirience with Camel 100mm filters. Not the lights, just like kings, but
longer. I imagine finding something like that might be the goal of searching
for urban raw materials. Or maybe somthing from some bigwigs garden. Oh, and
Chicago, our home town, has that strictly off limits Lincoln park, mostly
wilderness, run by a dragon. Liked the ideas in the other post- heck just
keep the search time the same, send the caracters on a gose chase through the
city. Sounds plety dangerous enough to me.
