Plot Hooks

Locale

The Gate

Bandits have created a gate overnight and are insisting people pay a toll.

Giselle Roderick thinks the village militia should just kill the bandits.

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Jen Ragvald has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Fareed Scourge was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

Unrequited

In the center of the village stands a beautifully carved statue of a woman in full battle armor, a hometown hero. A young adventuring Cleric, obsessed with the famed warrior, casts stone to flesh on the statue in a vain hope to be with her. It works.

Eden Ali has loved the stories of the hero all his life, and just wants her to be real. Landon Stormrage thinks the cleric has his head in the clouds. Evonne Hamid says the circumstances around the heroes death were always strange.

Loss

An elf named Cameron recently lost his wife in an attack. He needs help seeking revenge.

Joseph Huon is worried Cameron will lose his humanity on a path of vengeance.

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.

Luce Nozzlenuck believe the treasure is real, while Mugheer Bluepetal does not.

The Heartless

Undead minions have begun attacking travellers. The undead are all missing their hearts.

Christopher Kaye heard a story that you could control an undead fiend by taking their heart.

The Other World

Another world has appeared in the sky, very near to this world.

Anto Jayid thinks they might exist on that world, and have a better life.

Fight Club

A secret underground fight club has sprung up.

Ewan Abasi is mad because someone talked about it.
