Plot Hooks

Locale

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Titus Bergel thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Percival Amal, Balur Scott, and Luna Mournhell.

Trickster Makes This World

A child has become trapped in a magical snare. Releasing the child proves to be a simple matter, but the consequences are far more dire. The child turns out to be a malevolent trickster spirit, now unleashed upon the local region.

Gawen Hillard fears the nearby ruins and advises all to stay away. Honey Colman is a child who dreams of adventure.

The Deadly Gaze

A man in town can kill anyone by looking into their eyes.

Kandon Deadeye has taken to wearing a blindfold.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Riley Windrunner.

Left for Dead

A man was attacked and left for dead on the side of the road. Now he's looking for help when it comes to getting revenge.

Petter Gellar is letting the man stay at their house.

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.

Elisha Dresdain feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Makayla Laroque wants to help the dwarves.

The Sinkhole

More than one farm has been swallowed up by a sinkhole in the area. Someone needs to find out what is going on.

It's believed by Bella Monroe that giant worms are to blame.

Kids

A town has been taken over by children, and all the adults have been slain.

Sarab Terryn managed to escape from the town.
