Plot Hooks

Locale

Body Swap

Anyone who gets too close to a mysterious castle that's risen up overnight swaps bodies with whoever is closest to them at the moment.

Roxy Black swapped bodies with Charlie Deakin and they both kind of like it.

Eruption

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

Lucia Ironbrow thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

Shrunken

Everyone in town wakes up the size of bugs.

Sawyer Enola is thinking of ending it all.

Premonitions

A woman has begun seeing the future. These premonitions come with no warning, and cause her pain and stress when they do. Her latest premonition deals with the end of the world as we know it.

Gregory Lonerock has known the woman with the visions since they were a child.

The Surgeon

You spend a night drinking with the locals. You remember little from the night before when you awaken, strapped to an operating table.

Melissa Vonner tells you to take care in the city at night, some folk have been going missing. Phoebe Frost cannot find his mother.

The New Husband

A woman has learned her new husband is actually a ghost. He's not willing to get a divorce.

Lois Zantus is the one who realized the guy was dead.

The Lone Elf

An elf named Raven is the lone survivor of an attack by a goblin horde. Someone needs to convince her she shouldn't stay alone in the forest.

Walter Connington says Raven is standoffish and rude.

Dragon King

An ancient dragon has eaten the rightful King and all of his heirs. He now lives in the throne room and is demanding to be called King.

Clark Stonesworn doesn't really care who the king is.

The Shop

A traveling salesman claims he can get anything for anyone. For a price. He's set up shop just outside of town.

Keeley Arrias is wondering if the salesman can get his hands on a magical necklace.
