Plot Hooks

Locale

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Sazi Mournhell has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Riley Karim was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

What Lurks in the Fog?

The village is quick to welcome you to their food and fire. In the evening, a dense fog rolls in and surrounds the village. The villagers begin to don armour and weapons, and you hear the unearthly shriek echoes out of the fog.

Sahin Massa believes the fog creatures to be the dead, having risen from the barrow lands to the east. Fiana Lesley apologizes for tricking you, but explains that they desperately need your help.

Heat Wave

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

Kylie Roderick thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

The Last Wish

A stone has been found which houses a genie willing to grant wishes. He says he has one last wish he may grant, but wants to give it to someone who really deserves it.

Miles Haggard wants the wish and will stop at nothing to get it.

Slippery When Icy

Though the temperature has not changed, a thick layer of ice has covered everything within miles.

Dael Quaresh fell and broke their leg.

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.

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

A New World

You are part of a fleet of colony ships. Struck by a storm the fleet was scattered, and your ship makes landing on an unknown shore. The other ships are lost and the inhabitants are unhappy that you are here.

Morgan Shadowcloak is concerned about the gathering storm clouds. Avery Erwin expects the the land to be empty of intelligent beings.

The Lost Treasure

A long forgotten treasure has become hot news again, when a map that supposedly leads to the treasure is found.

Arianna Ferrier is intent on finding the treasure first.
