An arm wrestling league is looking to crown it's latest champion.

Phoebe Norton thinks they have what it takes to win.

The Coming Dark

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

Lachlan Ellis doesn't trust the elves.

Just a Dream

Every year on the night before your birthday, you dream that you are murdered by a man in black armour. You find yourself in an inn, the innkeeper is an old man. On the mantle is a wicked looking sword and familiar black armour...

Avery Broadbent says the innkeeper used to be an infamous adventurer many decades before. Elvira Mervor says the innkeeper's exploits are mostly unknown, as is where he got his armour.

The Unicorn

You are awoken from your rest while at camp to the sound of a horse. As you follow the sound you see the truth: it is a rare unicorn and it is injured.

Ezekiel Windrunner believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. Nicholas Weston's dream is to see a unicorn in person.

The Closed Mine

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

Sisco Orsan thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

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 Eden Hillard that giant worms are to blame.

A Most Inconvenient Murder

You are on a ship crossing the sea. On board is your party, a nobleman and his wife, a known rake, a beautiful young debutante, the ship's captain, a well known adventurer and a famous detective. One morning, the nobleman is murdered and you were the last one to see him alive.

Brogan Anwen swears they saw you with the nobleman last night. Cynthia Reece wishes to call everyone together to find the killer.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Gareth Alhara that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,
