Some ideas for contraband

Hi Phiwum,
I did not see if the smugglers are good guys or bad guys. These are bad guys.
Here are two ideas for contraband:

- slaves. Many cultures find owning another sentient being abhorrent. On the other hand other cultures do not. Slavery is often easier when the subjects can be viewed as different. So, say they are smuggling halfling slaves from or through an area against slavery to an area that supports it.

- body parts needed for alchemical potions. I would expect every culture would have a problem with their own being the target of body part scavengers. Try getting a shipment of elves toes (for the toenails) and centaur hooves through their woods.
