The Dragon Sword

A sword said to be able to easily kill dragons has been lost in a dungeon and must be recovered.

It's said that Sohali Oak knows exactly where the dungeon is.

Fool's Gold

You are given a gold coin for your service to a strange old man. Everytime you open your coin purse, you find only that coin, even if you place other coins in with it.

Max Beech offers you a magic item for your service to him. Mandy Beech warns that greed consumes all.

The Pursuer

A hulking monster has been sent to hunt down members of a military squad which fought in the last great war.

Fribbington Hamlin and their partner Ven Roderick were both in the squad, and are looking to pay bodyguards to keep them safe.

Clocktower

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

Natar Rucker was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

Invaders within!

Goblins are in the middle of the city! A series of caves have opened up in the sewers and streets and the city is under attack from within!

Doran Elonil doesn't believe goblins could have done this on their own. Hugh Barrow requests the adventurers helps his family at a local Inn

The Singer

A woman has come to town who can put people in a trance by singing to them.

Jayson Blaze is under the singer's thrall.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Asa Sorra is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Eden Vonner suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Helena Lesley says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

A Circus of Pain

A travelling zoo has set up in a nearby town. You have been asked to investigate rumours that the prize attraction is an intelligent being, enslaved.

Libby Boone wants to go see the new creature. Nina Carter considers what the zookeeper does to be slavery and he should be held accountable.
