The Clownish Village is an adventure site for four characters of about 10th level. The heroes arrive in Ridge Ville, a village located in a temperate mountainous area of an evil empire full of half-elf masters and non-half-elf slaves. They may discover a claustrophobic bounty hunter, an impotent noble, an imprisoned gladiator, an intriguing constable, and a scheming mercenary, among many other interesting NPCs. They could face charmed or hungry monsters, the Black Squadron, natural hazards of the Heaven's Band, the Flaming Circus, the powers of a desirable minor artifact, and the wrath of a demilich's vassal. Whether they decide to explore the area that is in need of good deeds or not, they will be accused of the abduction of the Count of Ridge Ville.
