Item: Agatha’s Ice-cold Wand
6 charges, lets users cast Ice Storm for 3, Sleet Storm for 2, and Ice Knife for 1 charge.
Fight with ice mephits, then animated armor wearing wigs, used as mannequins, and flying swords, shaped like scissors and razors.
On their way there, they find a drunk ice mephit carrying a large bag. The bag is full of hair and it seems to be too heavy for the mephit. If players find out what’s in the bag, the mephits attack. They can talk them out of combat to reveal who hired them.
Item: Endless flask of spicy eggnog, which lets the user cast breathe fire.
The place of the competition is just outside of town. Other than the main stage, there are some vendors which whom they can interact with, they are setting up their stores and some of them get shocked if they see someone who was shaved completely bald, since at this time of year, everyone is there to show off their hair.
The frostbitten comb can be found here, a magical item that styles hair perfectly. A seller selling these, now being overstocked, is giving them away for basically free.
Players wake up in the tavern.
Magical frost residue, and creatures leaving north are clues leading towards the academy.
Arriving at the academy, it seems that all of the wizards there have lushious hair and beards, but they have no intention of entering the contest, they are oblivious of it even being a thing.
Asking around the academy reveals that the principal, Agatha, has been missing for a while.
On their way there, people find a torn mage fabric, which can be linked back to Agatha. There’s a cave nearby, which is just barely visible through the snowstorm.

Principal of the wizard academy
Baldazar, the mage
- The only wizard who entered the contest for the last 14 years.
- He never won, or even got placement
- He started balding, and got mad that he never won the contest
- He hired mephits and other creatures to go and take the hair of all who are there for the contest, planning to make a wig out of the hair that he can win with before losing all of his actual hair.
- The winner of the contest gets a magical item that makes their hair regenerate and stay lushious, he wanted to get this,

Asking around the academy reveals that the principal, Agatha, has been missing for a while.
They need to go outside of the academy, around the mountain’s thin roads, and find the hideout of Baldazar, which is a set of caves under the academy.
Agatha, now freed, is willing to help the adventurers regrow their hair through the spell Baldazar invented. It didnt work for Baldazar, but Agatha knows how to perfect it and it will work if she’s freed.
If asked, the wizards can join them and go back to the town to grow everyone’s hair back.
Signs point to a wizard academy in search of the culprit.
Either way, they return to the town where they started.
- If only the players have hair, and no wizards follow them back, the other competitors try to make cheap wigs, but they all look bad so the players win.
- The wizards can grow back the hair of everyone in the town
- If baldazar’s hair grew back, he can place second in the competition.
Santa lookalike contest coming up, but everyone wakes up without their hair shaved.
The contest is delayed for this.
