Plot Hooks

Locale

Buried Alive!

You awaken to the sound of a bell tolling. You are laying down in the dark, surrounded by stone. Understanding is quickly follow by panic as you have been entombed alive.

Roxy Pierce, the priest in this town, never warmed to you while you were in town. Eden Winterheart doesn't trust the priest.

The Relic

While perusing a local shop, you are drawn to an old, rusty sword. It feels familiar in your hand and when you turn it over you find your name engraved on the blade.

Raed Bowes, the elderly shopkeeper, says the sword has been in this shop for as long as he can remember. Mugheer Marshall recognizes you, but cannot quite place where from.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

Alam Black heard Daphne Winterheart say that a druid is to blame.

Tax Time

A caravan of tax collectors from the nearby city was attacked and robbed on its way to town.

Maddie Harad seems happy that the tax collectors lost everything.

The Paladin's Oath

A well known Paladin has been found guilty of a gruesome murder. You know, however, he is innocent because you were with him during that time.

Valnis Roderick and Dawn Altharia claim to have seen the murder occur.

Druid Trouble

All druids have suddenly turned evil.

A militia led by Avital Orvar are going to hunt down druids.

The Deadly Gaze

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

Harold Loch has taken to wearing a blindfold.

The Arrival

While resting under an ancient standing stone, you feel a sudden rumbling, and a spark of light. After it passes there is a bipedal being lying unconscious at the base of the stone wearing strange clothing. She is unconscious.

Finley Orsan has always believed the ancient way stones are more than just travel markers

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Karakta Carter is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.
