Plot Hooks

Locale

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Tarc Hickory swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

Snakes on a Plain

The plain has become overrun with snakes.

Max Kastrix hasn't been seen for days.

Wild Wind

The wind lately is so severe it's almost impossible to walk in.

Brenda Ellis blew away yesterday.

Gravity

Gravity in the forest has changed. People are able to jump nearly a mile.

Malcolm Enola claims they saw someone float away.

The Heist

The rebels of a Kingdom ruled by a tyrant King has tasked you with stealing his prized Ioun Stone. They have arranged an invite to the King's annual Winter Ball. The rest is up to you.

Stuart Deadeye refuses to allow the King's rule to continue. Sasha Abbey offers to pay you to infiltrate the rebels and find their base.

The Mad King

The King has declared that all of his subjects are evil and must be put to the sword. It seems as though his knights are perfectly willing to do this.

Avery Jordan has heard whispers that the King himself has been brainwashed by Renee Simpson.

Sadness

Everyone in town can't stop crying.

Brienna Todd hasn't cried in years until now.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Patrick Silvertree has been missing in this region for days.

Into the Unknown

You are being chased through the dungeon by a horde of monsters. You come to a final room with no exits but for one swirling red portal which leads to lands unknown.

Avital Tawnyspots, your guide, does not wish to enter any unknown portals.
