Nearby the ruins there is an enchanted forest where some of the trees are rumored to be alive (true)

Long time ago the crazy magic user was experimenting with alchemy but when the potion didn't turn out correct, his apprentice would be made to dispose of it in the woods. Over time the mixtureof potions being dumped in the same location cause some of the foliage in the area to become alive and mobile. These plants uproot themselves during the night and move about to seek better areas to grow in. Their seeds when dropped and start their growth carry the traits of their parent plant.

A couple of days inland there is the ruins of an ancient temple. Due to the thriving black market, the local smugglers, under the leadership of the Lightman and the Harbour Master, have claimed it as their own. They have created a huge underground storehouse to fence, store, and distribute their illegal contraband. They spread rumors of hideous evil, powerful magics, and terrifying monsters in order to keep people away. There will always be at least a dozen mercenaries guarding whatever goods happen to be there at the time.
The problem with doing something really stupid to impress people is that they may just be impressed by how stupid you really are.

Perfecto! Time for the next question. Something slightly different.

Name 15 of the completely normal citizens of Sandyshore that the player characters may run into while staying there.

Lets see how this one goes, its a lot like a previous question but I feel like Sandyshore needs some more flesh on its bones.

Bryond is a middle-aged bachelor who works as a carpenter, flute-maker, and teaches basic math, and geometry to the children. He occasionally gets drunk at the inn, or village festivities, and recites poems for the lady of his heart. He never told anyone whom he fell in love with.

Alia is a wandering peddler seeking to set herself and her daughter Sariah up in a small house here in town. She specializes in unusual knick-knacks and curios-- carved owlbear knuckle, preserved lizards in brandy, clockwork toy soldiers, things like that. She came from across the mountains and has wandered the coast selling and collecting what she calls her "gimmicks" for seven years.

Johan is a large, muscular, black long hair and dense bearded man. He likes to bully people thinking that he is the male role-model everyone should follow.

Celest is a short, skinny, really long red hair woman, she's in charge of the flower shop, and it can be found gathering or delivering flowers on different points of the town.

Stefan, Ruth, Johnny and Timmy are the town's troublemakers, they are a band of kids constantly playing to be adventurers.
-Stefan wants to be a strong fighter and leader, he will admire anyone showing these characteristics.
-Ruth wants to be a thief so she can get any valuable and treasure away form the bad guys without direct combat.
-Johnny wishes to be a wizard and is always reading anything he can put his hand into. He tends to lecture everyone, even adults.
-Timmy wants to be ordain as a cleric of some courage related god. He keeps the party going on "adventure" daring them and everyone that they cross in their path to show courage, mostly on some simply and childish games.
