I have some new players interested in starting playing, and I've got a neat 3rd level dungeon dive ready, full of crypty traps, and flavorful guardians and puzzles but its a pretty strict dungeon style game. Now what I understand they like so far is some more story telling and roleplaying elements, and some more diverse encounter situations to give them more of a feel of depth. So I'm trying to design a mini pre-adventure to send them on, in orc territory. I was wondering if anyone had some ideas on diverse or fun 3rd level orc encounters that were also functionally flavorful. I haven't really reconciled the difference between a desert/Egyptian dungeon crawl and wilderness/savage land encounters but Its not a top priority for me. Any ideas or line ups/ tactics would be appreciated. 4 pcs expected.
