Kashida Jones says "Spiders, why did it have to be spiders?"

Body Swap

Anyone who gets too close to a mysterious castle that's risen up overnight swaps bodies with whoever is closest to them at the moment.

Mikael Bowes swapped bodies with Cora Winter and they both kind of like it.

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!

Sibylle Lachlan doesn't believe goblins could have done this on their own. Jaden Arrias requests the adventurers helps his family at a local Inn

The Lost Tribe

Hundreds of years ago an Elvish tribe vanished from the forest in which they lived. Now, they're back, and no time at all has seemed to pass for them.

The messenger is impatient. Celina Hamid is worried you're in over your head.

Reflections

You make camp in an ancient elven ruin, and while exploring you find a great mirror that has been shattered. When you gaze into each piece of the mirror, you see yourself, and a shadow lurking behind.

The figure in the mirror gestures to you, begging for release.

The Dead Killer

A necromancer is bringing forth an army of undead, but there's a mystical sword called Dead Killer which may help turn the tide, if it can be found.

Helen Moran will outfit a parry interested in finding the sword.
