Plot Hooks

Locale

Yeti Trouble

Snoe creatures have formed an army and are sweeping across the frozen landscape.

Sawyer Rucker is putting together a group of hunters.

The Buried Giant

A large hill is gone as dawn breaks. What was thought to be a hill turned out to be a giant resting beneath the earth. He's awake now.

Rashur Donovan has a fear of giants.

The Treasure Map

Someone in town wants to hire adventurers to escort them to a location said to have a lot of treasure, at least based on this old map they found.

Kharda Huon believe the treasure is real, while Carly Mervor does not.

The Woman in White

You are haunted by visions of a dead woman in white. She disappears when you walk in a particular direction, but otherwise she bars your way.

Clio Marshall won't make eye contact with you. Fribbington Sten calls you 'haunted', and makes a warding sign.

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Maz Heartpound invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Jayson Rook offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

Under the Sea

The citizens of a coastal town have been cursed by a witch. Now they've all turned into merfolk, and are forced to leave their homes to live in the ocean.

Jared Korsk thinks the witch is going to ransack the town once everyone has been forced to abandon it.

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Tamara Duval tells you not to go down that road. Monica Selentia smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

Undead Friends

Those who have died in the last decade have risen from the graves, most no more than skeletons. They're not evil though, they're looking to pick up their lives right where they left off.

Lisa Roderick is less than pleased to see their old romantic partner eight years after they died.

It's About Time

Hlf the population in town seem to be aging backward.

Vivien Wazels swears they've grown a foot shorter in the past two years.
