Plot Hooks

Locale

The Ageless

A small group of travelling wanderers seem to not age.

Eden Frost met the group as a child, and they're all the same age as they were back then.

Brewfest

The brew fest has arrived! But the caravan carrying the brew has not, and it has now been a week overdue.

Orren Hickory ordered the brews from the nearby city weeks ago. River Whisperwind is prepared to cancel the breakfast if the brews are not found.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Marcel Enola.

The Fountain of Truth

There's a mysterious spring in the forest that seems in force those who drink from it tell the truth for a day or so.

Yasmeen Knight drank from the water and is now getting a divorce.

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Tamsin Roundtree thinks the man is innocent.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Klaudia Windrunner was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

A Persistent Chill

As spring arrives in the valley, the winter thaw never occurs. The river stays frozen and a chill wind blows in from the mountain pass in the north.

Rowan Fae fears they will run out of wood. Marilyn Timber cannot get out onto the lake to fish.

Just a Dream

Every year on the night before your birthday, you dream that you are murdered by a man in black armour. You find yourself in an inn, the innkeeper is an old man. On the mantle is a wicked looking sword and familiar black armour...

Ricon Loch says the innkeeper used to be an infamous adventurer many decades before. Sumesh Nozzlenuck says the innkeeper's exploits are mostly unknown, as is where he got his armour.

The Tournament

A fighting tournament to the death is being held for the king's pleasure. The winner will receive anything he asks for from the King.

Skylar Ali is eager to sign up.
