Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Brenda Cunningham thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

Major Crimes

The dwarves of the southern hills have cut off all trade and closed their gates to any outsider without strict permission to enter. Someone has been shaving off their beards in the night, and they have asked your party to investigate.

Kasim Rana refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Charlie Wynne is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Aviad Huon has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Sarab Jones claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

The Resort

A mountain tourist town is empty. It was just filled to capacity the night before.

The only person in the town is Olivier Loch and they don't remember a thing.

Left for Dead

A man was attacked and left for dead on the side of the road. Now he's looking for help when it comes to getting revenge.

Jevon Einar is letting the man stay at their house.

The Experiment

While investigating a missing person you come across an abandoned lab. To your dismay, you find notes and diagrams making reference to you.

Zayne Bowes heard screams coming from that part of the sewers at night. Maddie Abasi went missing last week, their mother is worried sick.

It's About Time

Hlf the population in town seem to be aging backward.

Manuel Scott swears they've grown a foot shorter in the past two years.

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Lionheart Loch has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

Puppets

A puppeteer has lost control of his puppets. He didn't even know they were alive.

Mandy Connington is creeped out by the puppets.
