Easter Eggs

For some nice bonus appreciation, throw in Easter Eggs that allude to iconic, recognizable figures/events.

For example, in a Firefly session, the party could find a shipment of goods/supplies, which include a recommendation that Sergeant Malcolm Reynolds be promoted to the rank of lieutenant in recognition of his heroism during the Battle of Serenity Valley.

By doing this, this also avoids the potential problem of having the party meet iconic figures, and immediately try fight them or influence them so as to change history.

Unfortunately, the lack of extensive Dragonlance/Forgotten Realms knowledge limits this in our games to all but the most major of people, such as:

• Dragonlance - Lord Soth, Tasslehoff Burrfoot, Sturm Brightblade, Raistlin Majere
• Forgotten Realms - Elaith Craulnober
• Ravenloft - Strahd
