Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Ashley Hamid thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Tamsin Abasi suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Asa Huon says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Eruption

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

Sasha Stonesworn thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Tenjon Fallenoak, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Cora Quinn is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

The Duel

Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Sarab Donovan is the one who married the woman.

The Lost Tribe

Hundreds of years ago an Elvish tribe vanished from the forest in which they lived. Now, they're back, and no time at all has seemed to pass for them.

Olivia Huon was the one who discovered the tribe.

Gravity

Gravity in the forest has changed. People are able to jump nearly a mile.

Weyland Elonil claims they saw someone float away.

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

Oliver Ward is willing to pay 500 gp to anyone who slays the beast.

Enemy of my Enemy

A warning cry echoes across the fields surrounding the village, looking toward the forest's edge you see a large band of orcs come charging out. Drawing your weapons, you realize the orcs are not attacking, they are fleeing from something else.

Tami Knight believes the orcs are dangerous and should not be allowed into the town. Renee Pierre-Dupois believes working with the orcs is best for all involved
