Plot Hooks

Locale

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Reiko Ali, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Nayeli Potter is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Sylvie Mehmed thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

What Lurks in the Fog?

The village is quick to welcome you to their food and fire. In the evening, a dense fog rolls in and surrounds the village. The villagers begin to don armour and weapons, and you hear the unearthly shriek echoes out of the fog.

Nev Selentia believes the fog creatures to be the dead, having risen from the barrow lands to the east. Meara Scott apologizes for tricking you, but explains that they desperately need your help.

Into the Unknown

You are being chased through the dungeon by a horde of monsters. You come to a final room with no exits but for one swirling red portal which leads to lands unknown.

Parker Nighy, your guide, does not wish to enter any unknown portals.

Everyone's a Winner

The pub is offering up a series of tournaments: cards, drinking, darts and music. Prizes include magic items and treasure.

Sion Masak challenges you to a drinking game. Zayne Knight is collecting bets on the games.

Puppets

A puppeteer has lost control of his puppets. He didn't even know they were alive.

Roan Selentia is creeped out by the puppets.

Zealots

A new religion has swept the area, and those who believe are starting to round up and kill those who do not.

Mushin Silvermoon thinks that Elevrir Silvermoon is only pretending to be in the religion in order to survive.

One More Day

Ghosts of the dead start walking the streets of the city, not hurting anyone, just going about their business. At the rising sun, they all walk back to the crypt.

Elise Clarke saw his mother last night, she came to check on him but she died the winter before. Lulu Hawkwing saw a woman, not a ghost, walking the streets with the ghosts chanting to herself.

Snakes on a Plain

The plain has become overrun with snakes.

Nayeli Weatherby hasn't been seen for days.
