Plot Hooks

Locale

The Usurper

A man has attempted to kill the king, failed, and then made a daring escape from the castle. It's likely he's going to try again.

Lacy Leaffall saw Lois Weston speaking with the man in the days leading to the attack.

The Unicorn

You are awoken from your rest while at camp to the sound of a horse. As you follow the sound you see the truth: it is a rare unicorn and it is injured.

Sahin Mowbry believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. River Scott's dream is to see a unicorn in person.

Anger

Everyone in town is JUST SO FREAKING MAD

Brogan Knight is totally the most mad.

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.

Charlotte Korsk refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Klaudia Bradley is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

Night of the Dog

All the dogs in the area have become murderous.

Sisco Greentree was the first one attacked by a pack of dogs.

The Last Message

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Bella Alard is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

What Dawn Brings

Every morning in this town you are awoken by the crow of the rooster. This morning, you are jolted awake by a horrible shriek and a sickening silence just after.

Vitriak Hume, the innkeeper, can't find her daughter. Kylie Duval Is missing as well.

The Bloodening

A scream shatters the silence of the early morning. A woman stands beside town's well, horror-stricken, as blood drips from the water pail in her hands. There is a crack of thunder and the heavy clouds above release their deluge. The town's streets run red with blood.

Henry Mervor is losing their mind, the end has come. Avery Oak this must be punishment for allowing that warlock to practice his dark arts in town.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Bundringo Ellis is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.
