The Bandit Captain's Hoard

The mud of the roadside is stained dark after the skirmish, littered with the broken remnants of a caravan the bandit captain had been picking clean. As the dust settles and the remaining outlaws scatter into the brush, the party discovers a heavy iron-bound chest hidden beneath a false floor in the captain's personal wagon. Inside lies a mix of stolen mercantile goods, personal armaments, and a few magical curiosities intended for the black market. The spoils reflect a career of calculated violence and theft along the high roads.
