Plot Hooks

Locale

The New Jester

A funnyman was recently hired by a prince. Bad news is the funnyman turned out to be an evil funnyman, and he's killed the prince and gone on the run.

Eden Mervor used to date the jester.

Poisoned

The town magistrate has been poisoned and hangs on the cusp of death.

Shangela Weatherby hated the magistrate.

The Chosen

A young boy is being sought out. It is believed he is the only one who can destroy a great evil.

George Carter worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

The Hole

There's a hole in the middle of the forest that seems to move around at night. It's never in the same place twice, but sometimes there's music and voices coming out of it.

Matthew Carrion knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.

Snakes on a Plain

The plain has become overrun with snakes.

Marilyn Silvertree hasn't been seen for days.

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.

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

Dragon King

An ancient dragon has eaten the rightful King and all of his heirs. He now lives in the throne room and is demanding to be called King.

Geoffrey Karim doesn't really care who the king is.

Puppets

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

Yusef Kastrix is creeped out by the puppets.

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

Renee Davis is willing to pay 500 gp to anyone who slays the beast.
