Plot Hooks

Locale

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Jonas Hamid said something, but you don't even need to listen!

A Blade without Peer

A legendary blacksmith has set up in a nearby village. She has heard that a star of metal fell in the nearby hills, and offers to make a weapon of magnificence for any who bring her the metal.

Logan Abbey can guide you to the location where the star fell. Luce Norman noticed more goblins and orcs in the hills nearby to the fallen star.

The Fog

A strange fog has rolled in to cover the landscape. Anyone who ventures into the fog, is never seen again.

There have been multiple people who claim to have seen someone, or something moving within the fog, including Calla Whitethorn.

One More Day

Ghosts of the dead start walking the streets of the city, not hurting anyone, just going about their business. At the rising sun, they all walk back to the crypt.

Orren Deverin saw his mother last night, she came to check on him but she died the winter before. Dub Wood saw a woman, not a ghost, walking the streets with the ghosts chanting to herself.

The Tunnels

The Queen snuck out of the castle in the dead of night. She was seen entering a nearby mine, and has been lost among the maze like tunnels. It's up to a party of adventurers to find her.

Eldar Winterheart thinks the Queen may be under hypnosis.

The Sheriff

The town sheriff offers to lead you through the mountain pass if you help him kill a beast which attacks his town's supply lines.

Mugheer Greene wants to help. but his town must be his priority. Yasmin Deadeye doesn't think the sheriff is doing a good job and wants you to sabotage his next mission to prove his incompetence.

The Surgeon

You spend a night drinking with the locals. You remember little from the night before when you awaken, strapped to an operating table.

Kylie Colman tells you to take care in the city at night, some folk have been going missing. Fareed Karim cannot find his mother.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Emily Norton that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

The Murder

A large murder of crows descends upon the city you are in. They watch you as you walk through the streets.

Maz Alma says that crows are a bad omen. Avery Knight hates birds.
