Plot Hooks

Locale

Zombie Trouble

A horde of undead are making their way for town. Nothing has been able to stand in their way.

Maz Carson thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Carys Laroque doesn't trust the elves.

Silent as the Grave

You notice there are no birds singing this morning. As you travel, you also notice there are no insects or animals of any kind in this part of the land.

Penelope Massa, a druid, is gravely concerned about the forest along the northern road.

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Aptal Sybil invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Natalia Fallow offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

Parasite

A small water based parasite has been attaching itself to people who swim in a nearby lake. Once attached, they can control the bodies of their hosts.

Marcel Lledrod is convinced they're the only person in town not possessed.

The Yeti

A mysterious beast with white hair has been seen nearby. It's roars can be heard at night.

Simon Wrynn is going to hunt the animal down.

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Hassan Moonstone thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

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 Sahin Altharia knows exactly where the dungeon is.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Dolan Miller seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.
