What seems to be the problem OP, village seems to have a yummy surplus of wild pigs that the elder could gainfully employ us to take off their hands. Even the minor gremlin is already wrapped up by the milkmaid. Maybe the party alchemist can even make some side scratch with a brisk trade in unuglify potions.

Alas! We have run our head against a wall. Most quests that these NPCs could give us have already been completed. They needed someone to take the hot hazelnuts from the fire and to bind a bell around a cat's neck -- in short, we're fishing behind the net! For saving the calf, I guess, we are also late -- its owner is already filling the well in which it has drowned...

But luckily, those two dogs are fighting for a bone -- maybe we can run away with it. And that guy who's feeding flowers to his pigs -- maybe we can convince him to give us his pearls, before he throws them to the swine.

Thank you.

The part I take issue with is the rate of fire of the crossbow.
There is no way it could shoot that fast. Even repeater crossbows could not follow a bolt so quickly. Either the artist is a moron or has never actually seen a crossbow or weapons in reality and considering this was probably painted by a medieval monk that's likely.
You would need superhuman speed to even achieve anything close to this rate of fire. It is also historically inaccurate because crossbows did not shoot feathered arrows they shot bolts that had no feathers. Shit like this just makes me so mad.
>>
>>51671075

There's obviously some kind of witchcraft going on there, so I don't think it's impossible by any means.

Get the hell out before the stupidity affects us too, it's clearly some sort of magical curse at work.
>>
>>51663954
I try to spot all the medieval dutch proverbs.
>>
>>51671075
The first bolt got already stuck in the roof. The guy just shot another one to find the first.
And the artist actually knew his shit. He was known to dress up as a poor to observe the every day life.
>>
>>51673944
Monks didn't go amongst the poor, but I don't think that's the point. What I find annoying is that its so historically inaccurate.
>>
>>51673978
He wasn't a monk, he was a painter by trade.
It's not inaccurate if the bolt is lodged in a tile. It cold have been shot twenty seconds before, five minutes or a week.
Not to mention that it's the least disturbing thing on the painting.
>>
>>51674041
Forget the bolt. The whole painting is historically inaccurate.
>>

>>51674806
There is very little or no archaeological evidence for several of the things depicted. Are you telling me that people back then routinely butted their heads against a wall or bit into pillars? Not to mention the so-called fox.
>>
>>51674923
Have you managed to miss both wikipedia links that explain all this?
>>
>>51674923
The woman strangling the demon in the lower left seems pretty accurate to me. I'm pretty sure I read in a history book about women strangling demons left and right in the middle ages. It was all the rage, before the Spanish Inquisition came along and started hogging all the fun for themselves.

I'd be amazed if a GM conveyed that many choices to players by description alone.

Everything in a Bruegel painting looks so quest-worthy... But I'd probably see what sphere bro is doing in the bottom center.
