Plot Hooks

Locale

Gravity

Gravity in the forest has changed. People are able to jump nearly a mile.

Marina Lucas claims they saw someone float away.

Refuge from Fire

One morning a few dwarves come walking down from the mountains, seeking refuge in the city. The next day many more arrive. A fire demon has taken residence in their mountain halls.

Aubrey Ashfield feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Nadeera Rowe wants to help the dwarves.

The Prisoner

A man is found passed out by the road. A manacle hangs off one wrist, and his clad in only dirty trousers. He claims he has no memory of where he's come from.

Kallum Haggard first saw the man while heading back to town.

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Deimos Davis thinks the man is innocent.

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Jericho Greennose thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

Innocent

A man accused of stealing horses insists that he's being framed.

Sawyer Sams thinks that Kharda Wilbur might be the real horse thief.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Eve Wrynn saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

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.

Tanis Winterheart can guide you to the location where the star fell. Jon Duraz noticed more goblins and orcs in the hills nearby to the fallen star.

Sailor's Warning

It is midday and the sea suddenly pulls back from the shore, leaving docked ships stranded and tidal creatures scuttling for cover. A few moments later, skeletal figures rise from the receding tide and an unearthly bellow shatters the quiet.

Laurel Brown says the sea is acting strange this morning. Zayne Magdrom remarks that tide is all wrong.
