Plot Hooks

Locale

Slippery When Icy

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

Del Blackfist fell and broke their leg.

The Wendigo

People are going missing, and a wendigo just might be to blame.

Bundringo Hadwell is leaving town.

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 Elevrir Colman that giant worms are to blame.

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Parker Mulgrew thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

The Red Star

A local doomsayer has been claiming the end is nigh. On the night of his 'coming doom', a red star streaks across the sigh and crashes into an old ruin in the nearby hills.

Bella Kovak it told by the gods when the world will end. Robert Loch believes falling stars are natural phenomena and do not suggest the end of the world.

The Missing Singer

"Brokenstring" Barnaby Button, a gnome musician has been playing the local tavern for a few months now. This morning he is missing, and there's signs of struggle in his room.

Weston Karim saw Tarc Freeman having an argument with Barnaby last night.

The Double

Everyone saw the King die on the battlefield, and yet he just gave the victory speech a day later.

Lara Fordragon is wondering if it's magic, or just an actor.

Ambushed from Within

One of the wagons you are escorting suspiciously loses a wheel in the middle of a forest road. The other guards whisper to one another and ready their weapons.

The caravan master was convinced to hire these guards in the previous town. Maddie Terryn mistrusts the new guards.

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Athol Rowe swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.
