B8. Pigman Jack's Homestead

Aside from Figwort Manor, Pigman Jack's home is the largest residence in Blackapple. A loud, burly red-haired man, Pigman Jack is the self-proclaimed leader of the Blackapple “Pork Guild”. The Pork Guild has no charter or discernible organization. Pigman Jack isn't malicious, but he does have a hair-trigger temper. When angry, his face turns as red as his hair, a vein pops out of his forehead, and he begins shouting. Questioned too closely, he won't hesitate to start throwing punches. The pig farmer harbors a great secret: he's a wereboar. Pigman Jack's Information: • Recent wild dog attacks are starting to take a bite out of pork farmers' pockets. He is offering a reward of 2 gp per dead dog (he'll demand the pelts as proof). One of his sons can lead any would-be dog hunters to the dog pack lair (A1). • The dog recently seen around the Faehill (B14) is unusual, maybe even magical. Pigman Jack thinks that dog may be the “ringleader” of the wild dogs. He'll pay 5 gp for the pelt of that mutt. • Jack doesn't like or respect the Figworts. He believes the trouble with the village's children can all be linked to Arthur Figwort, and ultimately his parents. Pigman Jack (Wereboar): AC 16(s), HD 4*, #At 1 bite, Dam 2d6, 50' Human Form 40', Sv F4, ML 9, XP 280
