Once upon a time, in a mystical forest far away, there lived a witch named Winifred. She was a quirky and mischievous witch, known for her eccentricities and peculiar habits. However, there was one thing that bothered Winifred more than anything else - an incessant itch. No matter how hard Winifred tried, she couldn't seem to scratch the itch away. It was an itch that tormented her day and night, leaving her feeling restless and irritable. She had tried all sorts of remedies, from potions to spells, but nothing seemed to provide her with the relief she so desperately sought.

As you look more closely at the mysterious branch, a figure emerges from tree trunk and walks toward you. They appear to be a person made of gnarled bark, wearing a slight smile and a tunic of moss.

If Lia is with The Party at this stage, they will ask the adventurers to help them rout The Trickster and release the mountain from its Shadow Plane. For example, if a player says they loved a stuffed teddy bear, a giant teddy bear will appear on stage and attack them; if they imagine a toy sword, you might have a stone golem appear carrying a giant version of the sword.

She had tried all sorts of remedies, from potions to spells, but nothing seemed to provide her with the relief she so desperately sought. The itch was unlike any Winifred had ever experienced before. It crept beneath her grey and warty skin, making its way down her spine and spreading throughout her body.

Premise

Mischief Mountain is a mysterious place that is designed to trap adventurers and tease them with challenges. It was created by The Trickster: a mischievous Magician who collects loot from around the omniverse to hoard in Treasure Town, which sits at the base of the mountain. The Trickster sits in their mountaintop tower, watching the adventurers who arrive for entertainment.

. The Trickster transports adventurers to the plane by luring them with a magic treasure map. The map leads them to a foggy forest that acts as a portal to The Trickster's domain. When the players enter the fog, they are transported to the shadow plane and are trapped until The Trickster lets them go.

If you want to run Mischief Mountain as a lighthearted adventure, you can make it an illusory dreamworld where the adventurers cannot die or be harmed. If they were to die, they can wake up in Treasure Town and try the adventure again to see if they can escape The Trickster's trap.

For a more serious adventure, you can have the players be threatened with real dangers. The Trickster can be a playful foe, or a cruel and deadly villain.

When the players arrive at Treasure Town, they will be allowed to pick one magic item from The Trickster's treasure hoard. If they successfully make it to the top of mountain and defeat The Trickster, they will be set free and allowed to keep their treasure.

No amount of scratching or rubbing could alleviate the maddening itch. It was as if an invisible creature was tickling her from the inside, causing her to squirm and twitch uncontrollably. As the days went by, Winifred's itch grew worse. It started to affect her magical abilities, making her spells go awry and her potions turn into chaotic concoctions. Her fellow witches and wizards began to avoid her, fearing the unintended consequences of her unpredictable magic. Determined to find a solution, Winifred set off on an adventure to seek the help of a wise crone rumored to possess ancient knowledge of mystical remedies. The journey was long and treacherous, filled with enchanted forests, magical creatures, and mysterious landmarks. But Winifred was undeterred. She was willing to do whatever it took to finally get rid of her itch. After days of travel, Winifred finally reached the crone's secluded cottage at the edge of a mystical lake. The crone greeted her with a knowing smile and beckoned her inside. Winifred poured her heart out, sharing every detail of her relentless itch. The crone listened intently, nodding her head in understanding. After a moment of thoughtful silence, the crone revealed a secret remedy - a rare herb known as the "itchbane plant." The crone explained that the plant's leaves, when ground into a powder and applied to the skin, had the power to soothe even the most stubborn of itches. Overjoyed with hope, Winifred thanked the crone and set off on her way back home. She wasted no time in searching for the elusive itchbane plant and, eventually, found it hidden deep within the forest. With great care, she harvested the leaves and prepared the magical powder as instructed by the crone. As Winifred applied the itchbane powder to her skin, she felt an immediate calming sensation wash over her. The itch slowly faded away, replaced by a soothing coolness. It was a sensation she had longed for, and now, she had finally found relief. From that day forward, Winifred became known as the witch who conquered the itch. Her magical abilities returned, and her quirky nature once again became endearing to her fellow witches and wizards. She continued to live her life with eccentricity and mischief, but with the newfound knowledge that even the most insufferable itches can be tamed with determination and a little bit of magic..
